Compared to the Tamura match this really has specific roles in the match. Having the face/heel dynamic really added to the match. Vrij showed a lot of charisma. Though he looked sloppy at times, but it seemed Maeda covered well for him. It wasn't glaring though. I popped huge for Vrij combination leg, head kick. Overall another match that drew me in.

This was a good bout with some neat work on the ground. A highlight for me in this bout was when Tamura was in the mount position . Kakihara exposed his ribs to Tamura, and Tamura just beat on the area with strikes. Man that looked nasty. These guys have to have some serious cardio to work this style .

This was great. The 1st 10 minutes or so we get some really great work on the mat. It had a real 70's style feel to it with more modern stuff mixed in. Then the match morphs into both guys just working over each others arms. Hase in particular was really nasty. It had a real Anderson/Garvin quality to it. A little later Liger busts out some flashy offense. Though he stops and goes back to attacking the arm. I popped big for that. Hase does a cool leverage spot that takes Liger to the outside. Hase posts Liger on the outside. Hase starts working over Liger's back which really gives a sense of urgency. We start building to a hot finish with Liger's high flying offense versus Hase's suplex. Just great stuff.

I watched this one a few times because I wasn't sure how I felt. My end conclusion is that I did like it a lot, and everybody looked really good in it. The lack of chaos is what bothered me at 1st, but I got over it. I still like the Lawler/Embry cage and a few others above this, but this bout is in the mix for best of USWA/TX.
