Posted May 28, 201510 yr comment_5670966 O'Reilly vs Kamatsu These guys worked a really good match with both of their strengths on display. We start with some counter wrestling. O'Reilly in control with the arm mixed in with some good strikes. Komatsu on a comeback. We see him with a running drop kick to the outside. Back in a great spot that had tons of drama O'Reilly does a Butterfly Suplex into A Fujiwara Arm Bar where he switches to the other arm. The drama was tremendous here. Komatsu was great in this match bringing energy, and selling all of O'Reilly's offense. Wrestlers must look at him like a pork chop. The finish was a bit underwhelming after the drama of the Fujiwara. 3 1/4* Mascara Dorada vs Tiger Mask At this point In the tourney I thought Tiger Mask was the worst wrestler even behind Taguchi. His efforts have been bad. Here he tried a lot harder and as a result he had a good match. Dorada of course worked his ass off with big dives and innovative spots. They had a fun finishing sequence that worked for me. I thought TM looked pretty smooth here. 3* Liger vs Owens These guys have worked a bit together before. This is by far the best Owens has looked. He still lacks charisma though. Owens worked as a total heel and Liger as a face so we had a great dynamic. We got an early shine for Liger and he was great. Owens working the back was well done and made sense in the match. My favorite part was inverted Figure 4 that Liger sold huge and they built up brilliantly with the drama. Liger teasing the tap out was so great, Liger teases a comeback that Owens cuts off and goes over with his finish. 3 1/4*
