1 - Sign up for a free account. You can Google translate the page to make it easier, but the registration is fairly standard so it's not really needed.

2 - Here's the page for the NJPW shows. It costs 1800 points for POWER STRUGGLE next weekend. 1 point = 1 yen. Here's the page for Dragon Gate. Tomorrows show is a littler pricier at 2160 points.

3 - Go here to buy points. If you get more than you need, you can use the leftover ones the next time.

4 - When you click on the points you want to buy, you'll be presented with several payment options. I selected Mastercard and it accepted my details with no problem. Depending on your bank, you may be taken through "secure payment" screens where you'd need to input your secure password. You might need to set this up with your bank if you don't have one. As you proceed, it's the gold buttons with Japanese writing that confirm each step (they grey button is cancel).

5 - Once you've bought your points, go to the show page of the show you want to buy. Click the big red button near the bottom:

How To Order Dragon Gate IPPVs


6 - That will confirm that you've bought the show with your points, and will confirm how many you have left.

7 - You have the ability now to watch live. If you want to "timeshift" it, simply hit the yellow button that says Timeshift which appears on the show page and where the show is listed in your account. This will allow you to watch on demand for a week or so after the event:

How To Order New Japan IPPVs

8 - To be sure you've done everything right, go here and whatever show you bought should be listed.

So, that's all there is to it. It really only took about three minutes for the whole process and it was very easy. Any questions? Contact me on Twitter.
Cheers!

He used DG as an example, but it's the same thing for NJPW. Worked fine for me and hehu for KopW, but other people had trouble getting their cards accepted so you're just gonna have to try and see.

I'm also happy to answer any q's in this thread, but if your card is rejected you're basically SOL as far as watching the PPV legit is concerned.



Ok, so why should I give a gently caress about a ppv on the road to the Dome that doesn't even have an IWGP title match???

The primary answer is the main event. Shinsuke and Shibata had a fantastic match in the G1, and those two having a main event title match in front of a hot Osaka crowd has the potential to be a late year contender for MOTY. I also have no loving clue who's going to win which is rare for a big NJPW match.

The NEVER and IWGP jr tag title matches also have the potential to be excellent. Yoshi Tatsu has his first match back in NJPW on the show and it'll be interesting to see how he does against a guy who's really been tearing it up in the ring lately.

Plus, Karl Anderson and Fale have both promised the unveiling of a new Bullet Club member on the show
If you're still not convinced:

I mean, if that alone isn't enough to convince you to plunk down a little under $20 right now there's something seriously wrong with you.

I've never seen Yoshitatsu wrestle but I've heard he was p. good before he left NJPW?

Timesplitters/Redragon, Ishii/Goto and Shibata/Nakamura should be great, v. interested to see how the Owens/Liger match turns out too.

i could see Liger winning to give him one last run with a belt before he retires. if they were going to do that they should really just do it with the jr title though. it's not like it has any value right now anyway. whatever the case i'll be happy to see Liger doing long singles matches so long as they're not with NWA stiffs. he had a MOTYC with KUSHIDA on one of the BOSJ shows that nobody saw since it was a Samurai TV show.

If Liger won would he possibly do some US indy dates with the title? Or do the NWA titles only get defended in Japan?

Not that I'd expect Liger to make the trip to the US, but I was shocked at how over he was with the ROH crowd. Apparently lots of people remember him from WCW or something, so he would be a good draw for a US tour I think.

I'm sure Liger'd be willing to do some dates, he seems to like working in the US. And the NWA tag team titles get defended in the states frequently regarding of who has them. Also pretty sure Kojima lost the world title to Conway in Vegas.

Yeah, NWA titles do get defended in the confederation of tiny indies that make up the modern NWA and I bet Liger wins because I'm sure Tharpe would love to have him as a draw.

Oh, and I should've specified that being Japan this is sadly at 3 AM and not PM for EST.

Or anything else he's done during the last 30 years.

There really isn't anyone else still active that comes even close to the impact Liger's had on junior heavyweight wrestling during the last 30 years. He absolutely earned to be over as gently caress wherever he goes.

Well yeah, but I'm just trying to think of a reason why Liger would be really over with a North American crowd when guys like Tanahashi or Okada weren't even close (at the event I went to anyway)

I'd argue Gran Hamada over Liger, but regardless it'll be really awesome if Liger got a Golden Watch reign with the NWA Jr belt.

that was really loving good. whenever given the chance Liger shows he can still go in big matches. once again i urge anyone who didnt see it to watch his BOSJ match vs KUSHIDA. anyway i thought that was pretty much a carry job but Owens did have moments; i liked his wobbly legged selling after Liger got the knees up. his elbows sucked though.
