The G1 Climax 32 was a professional wrestling tournament promoted by New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). The tournament commenced on July 16 and concluded on August 18, 2022. It was the thirty-second edition of G1 Climax and the forty-eighth edition of the tournament counting its previous forms under different names.
Considered NJPW's most important tournament, the G1 Climax featured twenty-eight wrestlers, divided into four blocks of seven ("A", "B", "C", and "D"). Each participant faced all six other wrestlers within the same block in singles matches. The winner of each block was determined via a point system, with two points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a defeat. Each night of the event saw one match from each block between two members. On the final two days of the event, the winners of each block entered a four-man playoff to determine the winner of the tournament, who also receives a future match for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom. The event was broadcast live on TV Asahi and Fighting TV Samurai in Japan, and New Japan Pro-Wrestling World worldwide.
For the first time in three years, the block returned to the summer, moving away from the previous years where it was held in the fall between September–October due to the 2020 Summer Olympic Games being held in Japan, while coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] At twenty-eight participants, it was the largest field in G1 Climax history and the most competitors since 2014. The tournament also ran in a four-block round-robin format for the first time since 2000.
The event saw the G1 Climax debuts of Tom Lawlor, Jonah, El Phantasmo, Aaron Henare, and David Finlay.[2]

On the final two days of the event, the respective winners of each block enter a four-man single-elimination playoff 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 Young Lion matches have a fifteen-minutes time limit, while the matches of the tournament have a 30-minutes time limit (with the time limit being reached resulting in a tie); the semifinal (block winners) and final (semifinal winners) matches, where a winner must be determined, have no time limit.
On April 9, 2022, at Hyper Battle '22, NJPW announced that the 2022 edition of the G1 Climax would take place from July to August, returning to the summer for the first time since 2019. During Dominion 6.12 in Osaka-jo Hall on June 22, NJPW announced the participants for the G1 Climax.[5]
The event includes matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[6]
