Even when mercilessly cut (to 5 minutes, no less) this was pretty cool as a epilogue to their incredible 2011 tag match. Amano had to contend with getting kicked in the head a lot by a relentless Kana who ultimately felt more confident standing up than grappling, so she used that as a clutch to basically try to balance things out by turning this into a grapplefest whenever she could. It definitely feels like a Bati-Bati match by nature as most of this came down to just who could stand to throw the sickest strikes to counter the other with the suplexes being used as a big punctuation mark whenever a breakthrough was made and one of them wanted to try to settle things quick…

I think this match is pretty underappreciated. It wasn't as good as their 2 big TV matches that year (06/24 & 12/16) - but it was still great. Seeing Orton work as a heel after 3 years of working as a boring babyface was very refreshing, and he was really good at his role here. His work on top was strong, and I enjoyed the ways he cut off Bryan's comebacks. Bryan was his usual tremendous self as the babyface full of fire. ****

Clarifying upfront: this is just a lumberjack match sans any death, and weapons aren't allowed as they work the entire match using the ref and distractions to work that stuff in. Devitt comes out on Fale's shoulders per usual - which is just awesome for a slimy undersized heel. This is super fun, deliberately overbooked, contest with great crowd heat. Lumberjack interactions get the crowd really excited here and the New Japan guys get a bunch of fun payback spots, which really pop the crowd. Devitt works the back and amidst the brawling chaos of the two factions, seats Tanahashi and drop kicks him into the rail. His eventual comeback is tepid forearm heavy but it does lea…
