Wrestle Kingdom 9 & Evaluation By Long Island Advertising Agencies

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.

It would be a lie to say that Wrestle Kingdom 9 was light on action. In fact, I would go as far as to say that it was one of the most varied wrestling shows I have seen in quite some time. No two matches felt the same and there were numerous styles covered, whether they were more technical by comparison to others or grittier by design. This helped the show to move along faster, which is vital for a program that clocks in at about five hours in length.

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.

Even without this level of advertising, it's easy to see that Wrestle Kingdom 9 earned respect amongst its target audience: pro wrestling fans. They were able to get into a product that was far different from mainstream wrestling, as it contained action and storytelling done within the ring. The inclusion of English commentators is icing on the cake for those who consider themselves newcomers. With Global Force Wrestling in place, who's to say that more NJPW pay-per-views can't find their way to the States?
