    Has anyone worked out how to book it on the Flipps app? I've it installed and a chromecast but all I can find are hype videos.

    The UI is absolutely dreadful!

    Ridiculous you can't just watch it on pc too.

    Nope they've really dropped the ball with it, they could've at least give some info on how to pay for it. The only thing I've seen which was on Twitter was that its an in-app purchase and your Google play store account will be debited.

    I imagine it will appear and you purchase it like the film's that are on the app.

    I agree with you about the interface, leaves a lot to be desired!

    If you weren't watching New Japan's press event thing this morning you've missed quite the strange, weird, boring, utterly baffling yet oddly captivating treat.

    Might want to hold back on watching live through Flipps according to this if you're using Chromecast or a Xbox it won't work live just the replay.

    Get NJPW World it is only a few Euro and you can easily cancel. The stream quality is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, no WWE Network style geo block and there's no buffering.

    A friend has it, he uses my Network account in exchange, I'll watch it there, just silly that I was willing to pay for English commentary and they make it so hard!

    That's all before the show starts then you have to worry about buffering and crashes. I've been through the wars with Internet Pay Per Views over the years with ROH and other Indies. Nothing ruins your buzz more than that stuff. Then you wait/fight for refund.

    An annoying thing with some other fans online is that they think all Wrestling is as complex as WWE or TNA and needs to be explained to them like a child. They then refuse to listen to the fact that New Japan's storylines largely so basic. Man wants to beat the other man as it will itch him closer to the title. I get wanting to listen to Jim Ross potentially one last time. But paying 5 times the price to have a product so basic explained to you by announcers with vaguely decent product knowledge themselves? No chance mate.

    If you what get to know what's going on you catch up with

    By reading:

    Or by GFW stuff on Youtube.

    Choose just one of the options and you should be grand.

    I'd still have rathered Styles vs Okada as the main event.

    that match would never have mainevented anyway. tanahashi is the number one guy in the promotion clearly and he has only failed to mainevent one toyko dome show since 2007. okada was champion this time a year ago and didn't mainevent.

    Not sure if its any use to you guys, but I use the Flipps app to stream things from my tablet to the telly/xbox and just there I got a push notification from it, to say that I could watch WrestleKingdom on it. I've not used it to watch things on (I just use it to mirror), so I can't guarantee anything in terms of quality/reliability, but it could be an option for some of you!

    My internet has been terrible the last number of days. I've been downloading a 2gb show on Sky On Demand for 9 hours now and it's still not finished so I don't think I'll be watching this in the morning :pac:

    Just signed up to NJPW World for this. Is there a 24/7 "live stream" a la WWE Network?

    On some devices maybe. On Android it is acceptable at best.

    Not to be going over old material but its very good to hear commentators actually talk about the history of the wrestlers and whats happening in the ring rather than other rubbish
