Follow along with our New Japan Pro Wrestling G1 Climax day five review and results.

If you plan on waking up early, you can catch New Japan Pro Wrestling’s G1 Climax tournament, which is up to day five.

The first four days have featured plenty of great action and the latest set of matches should provide the same.

So what is the G1 Climax?

For those who don’t know, the G1 Climax tournament places NJPW wrestlers into two blocks—A and B. From there they compete over a certain amount of time (usually one to two weeks).

A points system determines the winner of each block. A wrestler gets two points for a victory, one point for a draw and zero points for a loss.

Here is what’s scheduled for this morning’s show:

Hirooki Goto, Jushin Thunder Liger, Tiger Mask IV & Yohei Komatsu vs. Tomaki Honma, Mascara Dorada, David Finlay & Jay White
