GHC Heavyweight Championship:
Yoshihiro Takayama vs. Minoru Suzuki ©
Even in
2015, even with Big Tak being one DDT away from dropping dead, you can still
classify this meeting as “dream match”, or something like that. The screenshots
for this were insanely attractive as they showed Takayama’s face soaked in
blood. Also the story basically wrote itself, Takayama challenging for the GHC
strap one last (?) time, etc. And yes, most of the match was really fucking
good, they brawled very well and Takayama bled like a slaughtered pig, but
unfortunately, many endless interferences really brought the whole thing down. I
could live with Taichi being a colossal dickbag with his constant ringside antics,
but the entire SZKG going after Takayama in the finishing stretch, with the ref
getting bumped and stupidly distracted like ten times in a row… Wow, it was
just too much. Makes you appreciate Bullet Club. Really, huge props to Takayama
for his heroic performance, he looked like a fucking warrior, gladiator out
there, also props to MiSu as well for playing the invader cards so well, but
Jado’s booking prevented this from being a classic.
