Kenny Omega vs. Kota Ibushi (NJPW - 8/11/2018)
Tremendous bombfest between tag team partners and best friends. I like how they didn't spend too much time with the dramatic "You're my best friend!" and got right into "OK, there's no way around this. I'm going to win." I was quite shocked with how violent this match was, but both guys are tremendous bomb throwers and with the stakes being as high as they were, I get it. I also liked how prepared they were for each other's biggest moves, forcing them to raise the bar with each exchange in hopes of putting the other away. I'm not sure I would say this was the best match of the 2018 G1, but it's definitely a must-see. An awesome, 23-minute bombfest without any of the typical main event padding.
