I'm always interested to see Meltzer's ratings, just as a point of comparison. Looks like he enjoyed Wrestle Kingdom 11 quite a bit.

I didn't see the match between the Bucks and RPGV but I hear it was really good. I might have to check it out.

------

New Japan Rumble 1
Tiger Mask W vs. Tiger the Dark 3
Young Bucks vs. RPG Vice 3.5
Finlay/Ricochet/Kojima vs. Bullet Club, CHAOS, LIJ 3, 1, 3.25 (he rated these in succession)
Cody vs. Juice Robinson 2.75
Kyle O'Reilly vs. Adam Cole 3.5
GOD vs. Ishii/Yano vs. Great Bash Heel 3.5
KUSHIDA vs. Hiromu Takahashi 4.5
Katsuyori Shibata vs. Hirooki Goto 4.5
Tetsuya Naito vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi 4.5
Kazuchika Okada vs. Kenny Omega 6

"Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada may have put on the greatest match in pro wrestling history" - Dave Meltzer

Cant say I disagree with the man, my first NJPW show and Ive never seen something so amazing. When Omega kicked out after a tombstone and another Rainmaker (like the 3rd??) I literally jumped out of my chair in excitement and shock. I dont remember the last time wrestling did that to me.

Also are the crowds in Japan just better than those in the US or is it just because they get to watch amazing matches unlike the US  (WWE) fans??
Because that crowd was amazing at the Tokyo Dome.
