Best Friends (Arisa Nakajima & Tsukasa Fujimoto) vs. Avid Rival (Misaki Ohata & Ryo Mizunami)

This was a 20-minute rollercoaster of double team moves and surly elbow strikes. Arisa/Ohata seems to be the end goal of this best of three series, and I dug the heat building segments between them. ****1/4

 

This is the second match in these two teams three match series. Since this goes the full twenty minutes, this match is more moderately paced than their first match in this series. They still keep it fast enough that the action doesn't feel slowed down. I do wish they did a better structured finish leading to the draw. Still, one of the best joshi tags of the year as Best Friends keeps their hot run going. ****1/4
