NJPW G1 Climax 27 live stream: Watch Omega vs. Okada III online

Here’s how you can watch the third encounter between Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega this year in the final day of block competition in the G1 Climax 27 Tournament for New Japan Pro Wrestling.

For the third time in this calendar year, IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada will face off against IWGP United States Champion Kenny Omega with their third matchup coming in the G1 Climax 27, the prestigious annual tournament for New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Arguably the two best professional wrestlers on the planet today, Okada and Omega faced each other in the main event of Wrestle Kingdom 11 for NJPW in January and it was the first match to receive a six-star rating from combat sports journalist Dave Meltzer.

The two stars followed that epic encounter up with an even better match a few months later in the main event of NJPW Dominion at Osaka-jō Hall in Osaka, Japan that received 6.25 stars and finished in a 60-minute draw.

When the blocks and schedule for the G1 Climax 27 Tournament were announced, everybody’s eyes moved to Okada vs. Omega in the final day of block competition before the G1 Climax Finals on Sunday, Aug. 13. After their first two classics, it’s safe to assume that their third match should be can’t-miss television.

Here’s how you can watch Okada step in the ring once more with Omega in the final day before the G1 Climax 27 Finals, including some other information about Saturday’s show at the Ryōgoku Sumo Hall.

Can the duo top their first two six-star thrillers?
