New Japan Pro Wrestling has released the full schedule for this year’s G1 Climax tournament, kicking off on Saturday, July 14th.

For the first time ever, this year’s tournament will feature live English commentary for every single show. That’s NINETEEN big events in less than four weeks, with some of the biggest matches of the year, all featuring the melodious voice of the great Kevin Kelly, for the low, low price of just one month’s subscription to New Japan World.

Just as a reminder, here are the blocks:

A BLOCK: Hiroshi Tanahashi, Togi Makabe, Michael Elgin, Kazuchika Okada, Jay White, Yoshi-Hashi, Bad Luck Fale, Hangman Page, Evil and Minoru Suzuki.

B BLOCK: Juice Robinson, Hirooki Goto, Tomohiro Ishii, Toru Yano, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Tama Tonga, Tetsuya Naito, Sanada and Zack Sabre Jr.

As always the opening nights will be absolutely stacked with some of the biggest matches of the tournament, which is crazy when you consider the punishment many of the top stars will put themselves through, and then have to compete 18 more times in three and a half weeks. Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Minoru Suzuki will kick off the G1 for the A Block, while the six-star rematch of Kenny Omega vs. Tetsuya will headline the B Block’s opening night. Okada will also face faction mate Jay White, Bullet Club brothers will collide in Bad Luck Fale vs. Hangman Page, and Kota Ibushi vs. Zack Sabre Jr.

The closing night for the A Block will come down to age-old rivalry between Kazuchika Okada vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi, which means the block will more than likely come down to one of them advancing to the finals. The B Block will feature one of the most highly anticipated matches of the last decade, as IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega faces his best friend and Golden Lover Kota Ibushi.
