On our 22nd W2M Extra, we are joined once again by longtime New Japan fan Tom Reese, to discuss and review the big matches on the NJPW Destruction in Okayama 2015 card and to also do a full NJPW Destruction in Kobe 2015 Review as well.

We first go through the big title matches on the Destruction in Okayama show, discuss how the matches went, we also discuss some of the weird booking decisions in the two main events, and if perhaps NJPW is getting too trigger happy with title switches recently.

After that, we go through the 9/27 show in full with our NJPW Destruction in Kobe 2015 Review. We discuss how Matt Sydal and Juice Robinson have looked on their first tour, if Gedo’s booking is really hurting KUSHIDA, and what’s with putting the IC Title back on Shinsuke Nakamura once again? Is it more about Goto not being a draw? Or is there a bigger plan here for Nakamura? All of these questions are answered and more.

Finally, we finish things out with our ratings for both shows and which wrestler was the MVP of the tour as well.
