The major problem was that the ring ropes came loose. That's always a bad thing, more so than ever with the AJW style. It caused numerous errors and hurt the wrestlers performance levels. It also went on for way too long, particularly for poor Kyoko who had already worked earlier in the card. The most interesting thing was FMW women showing up afterwards in a precursor to the interpromotional conflict.
May 17, 20178 yr comment_5800677 The match begins with Aja calling out her mystery partner, Kyoko Inoue. From there we get a real rough and tumble tag team match. It is tremendously gritty and full of heart. It seems to be an off night in terms of execution as this is Kyoko's 2nd match, and Toyota gets injured. With that being said, the performances are more realistic because of these stumbles and mistakes. It's covered well because the passion and intensity are there. It's not one of those matches were they are biting off more than they can chew. It's more like the women are so drained that they can hardly muster the strength, concentration, and balance to execute their moves. So, the moment is never really killed, it's just a more organic match. Many of the great early 90's Joshi matches are in this same vein. This match is not talked about in the top tier of Joshi and maybe rightfully so but, it's certainly a top tier match of 92 for AJW.
