Could Long Island Advertising Agencies Have Covered Wrestle Kingdom 9?

By Rob Sutter


Wrestle Kingdom 9 came and went, leaving many wrestling fans with high amounts of praise. This particular show, under the New Japan Pro Wrestling guise, has become quite favorable amongst wrestling fans and I was surprised by what I saw this past Sunday as well. As someone who hasn't been heavily involved in NJPW, I came away impressed. One has to wonder, though, if Long Island advertising agencies could have made this show even greater.

One of the defining traits of Wrestle Kingdom 9, in my view, was the collaboration done with Global Force Wrestling. Without this, it is unlikely that it would have aired in North America, especially with the commentary done by Jim Ross and Matt Striker. I felt like this helped the show, as a viewer, because it allowed me to better understand who everyone was and what their goals were. Even those who aren't privy to NJPW could get into the show rather quickly.

Of course, the action itself was tremendous from start to finish. It seemed like just about every match had a purpose and many of them had distinctive feels from one another. Everything from mixed martial arts to outright brawling was covered, which made for a well-rounded show. Styles were varied, which meant that the risk of fatigue was low. As a result, the five-hour show felt like it only went on for about two, which is a positive point to say the least.

Wrestle Kingdom 9 might have benefited from Long Island advertising agencies, provided social media would be focused on. I believe that the aforementioned agencies could have put their social media-related skills to the test, which is useful when given how information can be distributed across a litany of channels. It's important to bear in mind that only the most reputable of authorities can fulfill this, meaning that names the likes of fishbat should be noted.

With advertising out of the way, though, Wrestle Kingdom 9 is an early candidate for best pro wrestling pay-per-view of 2015. It managed to do everything that a strong wrestling show should be known for: strong action, versatile matches, and commentary that brings attention to said action as opposed to take away from it. Can more of these shows make their way over to the United States? With the success of Wrestle Kingdom 9, I'd like to think that anything is possible.
