Since 1992, NJPW has held theirJanuary 4 Tokyo Dome Show. The January 4 Tokyo Dome Show became NJPW's premier annual event and the biggest event inJapanese wrestling, similar to whatWrestleMania is forWWE andAmerican professional wrestling. It has been described as "the largest professional wrestling show in the world outside of the United States" and the "Japanese equivalent to theSuper Bowl".[1][2] From 1992 to 2006, the event was promoted under different names. In 2007, the event was rebranded as Wrestle Kingdom which has been the event name ever since.

From 2007 until 2019, Wrestle Kingdom was held on January 4 on Tokyo Dome, but the show expanded to two nights in 2020.Wrestle Kingdom 14 was the first one to include matches on January 5, and further expanded to include a third night (January 8) in 2022.

Wrestle Kingdom VI drew the highest single-day attendance since the annual event was branded as Wrestle Kingdom, at 43,000.[3] Counting events held over two nights,Wrestle Kingdom 14 had the highest overall attendance, with 40,008 announced for night one[4] and 30,063 for night two,[5] a total of 70,071 attendees.

The lowest attendance was forWrestle Kingdom 15, held under attendance restrictions due toCOVID-19; NJPW announced an attendance of 12,689 for the first night and 7,801 for the second.[6] Prior to COVID-19, theWrestle Kingdom I andWrestle Kingdom V events drew the lowest unofficial gates, with only 18,000 in attendance.[7]
