After the abortion that was this year's SummerSlam, I've finally decided to purchase NJPW World.
What's a good jumping in point? What should I watch first?

G1, probably, although there's a lot of it. But you've got over three months 'til the Dome so you've got time.

Get acquainted with G1 before the destruction PPV
listen to Jap commentary even if you can't understand it, their energy and hype transcends language barriers and the English commentary is god awful and ripe with boring uninspired calls of "SHADES OF (WWE/WCW) WRESTLER"

G1 provides you with a great tier list and overview of everyone but it is 19, 3 hour shows and nobody expects you to watch that much. So the last 3 shows are probably the way to go.
Also catch the G1 USA Special since that's their attempt at broadening their appeal to the US more.

Gonna respectfully disagree with this and say, try both commentaries and see which you like more. The English commentary is useful because it gets you familiarized with who the characters are and what their stories are.
The Japanese commentary brings incredible energy, but I wound up liking Kelly and Callis.

Seconded, even though I listen to jap commentary exclusively nowadays
>being so butt blasted because your favourite wrestler lost so you post the same thread at least 5 times

If you don't have unlimited amounts of time just start with Wrestle Kingdom 11 from January 2017, and watch all the major PPVs in chronological order up until the current time. Watch the G1 matches then. Also don't listen to the people telling you to watch in Japanese. You'll want to watch in English to learn the wrestlers, storylines, etc. Once you know your stuff then you could watch in Japanese because they're pretty entertaining.
