Never really watched much myself but I decided to watch this match due to how people were talking about it. I really enjoyed it, I didn't really know the story between the two men but the quality of the match is just ridiculous. I think calling it the greatest match right now is quite difficult as the fact it's fresh in the mind will influence that. We'll have to see if it survives the test of time and we're still talking the same way about it in 10 years.

I haven't seen the match yet, but from what I can tell the story was prime for Omega to go over.

A great match. One of the best in recent years, and can be argued to be the best Wrestle Kingdom main event, but I don't believe it's the greatest of all time.
I can point to numerous Misawa, Flair, Race, Rhodes, Michaels and even AJ Styles matches that I think could hold a candle to this match. I don't think they can be the greatest match ever, but I do think that they can be considered a close candidate to this one, in terms of how good it is. Just my opinion.

I just watched it and I think it definitely contends for one of the best matches ever. I think it's premature to say it is the best ever though.
Kenny Omega may not have won the title, but he definitely won the match in regards to showing how just how phenomenal he is.
I actually think rather than calling the match as a whole the greatest match of all time, I might call Omega's performance the greatest single wrestling performance of all time. Okada is generally great, in my view, but Kenny Omega made this match what it was. It would have been a good time to give him the belt too, I think, if his contract wasn't about to expire.
