The G1 Climax 34 is an ongoing professional wrestling tournament promoted by New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). The tournament commences on July 20 and concludes on August 18, 2024. It is the thirty-fourth edition of G1 Climax and the fiftieth edition of the tournament counting its previous forms under different names.

Contents

Considered NJPW's most important tournament, the G1 Climax features 20 wrestlers, divided into two blocks of ten ("A" and "B"). Each participant faces all nine other wrestlers within the same block in singles matches.

The tournament sees a return to 20 participants split into two 10-man blocks for the first time since 2021.

Tournament rules

The tournament features 20 wrestlers, divided into two blocks of ten ("A "B"). Each participant faces all nine other wrestlers within the same block in singles matches. The winner of each block is determined via a point system, with two points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss; each night of the event sees one match from each block between two members competing for the tournament. In case of several wrestlers sharing the top score, the results of the matches those wrestlers had when facing each other in the tournament act as tiebreaker, with the one having the most wins over the other top-scorers determining the winner of the block. [1] [2]

On the final three days of the event, top 3 wrestlers in each block advances and enter into an six-man playoff, with the block winners earning a bye into the semifinals to determine the winner of the G1 Climax, who would gain a future match for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, NJPW's top championship, at Wrestle Kingdom, NJPW's biggest yearly event; if the IWGP Heavyweight Champion himself wins, he selects his opponent at Wrestle Kingdom. The matches of the tournament have a 30-minutes time limit (with the time limit being reached resulting in a tie); the quarterfinals (2nd and 3rd places of the block), the semifinal (block winners and quarterfinals winners) and final (semifinal winners) matches, where a winner must be determined, have no time limit. [1] [2]

History

On April 3, 2024, NJPW officially announced the 2024 edition of the tournament between July 20 and August 18; as usual, the tournament took place over several cities and locations across Japan. [3]
