Watch AJ Styles face off against Shinsuke Nakamura in a Wrestle Kingdom classic

New Japan Pro Wrestling operates a service much like the WWE Network called NJPW World, and each week they make one classic match “free” temporarily for everyone to watch. This week’s offering is one of the best matches you’ll see between two of WWE’s biggest stars.

Just before AJ Styles and then-IWGP Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion Shinsuke Nakamura left Japan for WWE in early 2016, they met in the Tokyo Dome at Wrestle Kingdom 10.

We won’t spoil the outcome, but for WWE fans who are just now seeing Shinsuke Nakamura for the first time, it’s a must-watch showcase.
