Kenny Omega took on Kota Ibushi in the B Block Finals of the G1 Climax 28 tournament. The Golden Lovers, reunited this year with a storied history, were hesitant before the match to face each other. Those feelings would be cast aside as the two prominent NJPW stars waged war against each other. NJPW World’s Twitter account shared some of the most brutal and stiff moments of the match.

The most harrowing of the shared spots is probably the double foot stamp from Ibushi:

This knee drop connects stiffly with Omega’s chest. As seen in the GIF, Ibushi’s knees fall uninterrupted into the exposed sternum of Omega.

Finally, a super kick so stiff, it may be difficult to find another one challenging it in recent memory in such a high-profile match.
