Real World Tag League 2014 – Suwama Debut 10^th Anniversary

(2014/11/29)

1.       Naoya Nomura vs. Masanobu Fuchi

Strange match where Nomura got very little to none offense, it was all about Fuchi schooling him with basic and simple moves. Technically fine but lacked true emotion.

**1/4

2.       Takeshi Minamino vs. Yohei Nakajima

Yohei continues his hot streak of awesome performances by bringing the best out of the Elvis impersonator, good match with solid matwork and great finish(ing run).

4.       GAORA TV Championship: Ryuji Hijikata vs. Kotaro Suzuki ©

Massive disappointment, I had such high hopes for this one, and rightfully so because the build was smashing and Hijikata showed tremendous fire in the prelude matches, it looked promising. But this was a gigantic bore, especially disappointing after all those great prelude matches.

5.       RWTL 2014: Akebono & Yutaka Yoshie vs. KENSO & Mitsuya Nagai

The Dark Kingdom evildoing duo ambushed the fat dudes with some powder and we got more than six minutes of quality brawling and beating before the FAT SLOB comeback and win. Simple, effective, good. Akebono and YY are not the most exciting guys to watch, but damn, they’re using the weight in offense so well.

6.       RWTL 2014: Burning Wild (Jun Akiyama & Takao Omori) vs. Go Shiozaki & Kento Miyahara

It’s always tricky to do 30 min draws when they’re more than obvious, but these four did a fine job. At moments it seemed they’re gearing towards the four star territory, but they never quite got there, whether because of the lack of Akiyama/Miyahara (they’re probably saving that for later) or the lack of craziness in finishing run, I don’t really know, all I know is ***3/4 seems like a picture perfect rating for the match.

***3/4

7.       Suwama Debut 10^th Anniversary: Suwama & Atsushi Aoki vs. Joe Doering & Hikaru Sato

Good celebration tag between the stable mates, kind of by-the-numbers but nothing too harsh.

***1/4
