April 10, 20187 yr Author comment_5841593 Giving everyone another day due to Mania weekend. AstroBoy's back on. Any other movement? In the meantime, here's my match from the week: http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/41577-rick-rude-terry-gordy-and-steve-williams-vs-mitsuharu-misawa-toshiki-kawada-and-tsuyoshi-kikuchi-all-japan-71491/ A little more of a traditional tag structure (with a finishing stretch that felt like something out of captain-driven lucha trios), with Rude being a very effective fish out of water adding a fun element to the proceedings.
April 10, 20187 yr comment_5841684 Martha Villalobos & La Diabolica vs. Selene & Vicky Carranza (Arena Mexico, 10/6/1989) Womens wrestling from the 80? And not Joshi? AND in Mexico? Exactly the type of thing I was expecting from participating in this thread. Martha Villalobos steals the show from the beginning and the crowd loves it. We get some drama between the rudos in the middle to spice things up and a couple of good looking spots from Selene using the ropes. Great, chaotic finisher. Really had fun watching this, I was expecting some obscure Volk Han match from you to be honest! shodate, I'm going to give you a Sara del Rey match:

April 12, 20187 yr comment_5842278 Alright, joeg, let's go with Averno vs Myzteziz from AAA Sin Limite (taped 7/3/15)
April 12, 20187 yr comment_5842285 Nice, I saw that pop up the other day and was planning on watching it eventually. I'll get your match to you today, shodate.
April 13, 20187 yr comment_5842331 For Jetlag, Twin Towers vs Strong BJ - 1/2/17 Big Japan https://rutube.ru/video/b75ddb98345691e1e8f1415d4031f3ec/ Matt, I'm going to take a couple of weeks off after this. My backlog is getting bigger and still gonna owe 4 matches after this week.

April 13, 20187 yr comment_5842392 My match for laz is from DDT Never Mind 2017 on 12/24 Antonio Honda, Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine vs. NωA https://youtu.be/6JibzyddNtk?t=1h18m55s
April 14, 20187 yr comment_5842603 For Oldbirds: Intros take roughly 9 minutes. This is the first Toryumon 4-way tag match and it is suitably crazy. As spotfests go it's one of the best I've seen.
April 14, 20187 yr comment_5842606 I guess I forgot to drop out of this. I apologize to those I've been paired with, but there's been a lot going on at home lately and I can't really focus on scheduled reviews. I'll probably join back in if things quiet down.
April 14, 20187 yr comment_5842610 For shodate Stan Hansen vs Giant Baba i like t match up until the ending i dislike alot pre uwf Japanese wrestling cause of the over-reliance on ending like this

I apologize to those I've been paired with, but there's been a lot going on at home lately and I can't really focus on scheduled reviews. I'll probably join back in if things quiet down. I think I took you off for a week as requested and then tossed you back on (but work and home have been busy here too so I might have slipped). Anyway, I'm happy to double with HeadCheese this week. I'll have a match for him and Astroboy today.
April 14, 20187 yr comment_5842628 My match for Matt D. BOSJ from 1997. El Samurai vs. Koji Kanemoto.
April 14, 20187 yr Author comment_5842664 Headcheese, I'll take laz' match (assuming you didn't pick something for him specifically) and give you this: One of the best, funniest midget matches we have on tape. Astroboy, happy to watch that. Here's yours. One of the best Super Astro matches we have on tape: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oxrDvBYenI Solar, Ultraman y Super Astro vs. Sergio El Hermoso, Bello Greco y Rudy Reyna
April 16, 20187 yr comment_5842970 dawho5 Should I make an additional review for that first entrance? Crazy stuff. Ok so this is my first Toryumon match, I recognize a couple of the guys from Dragon Gate, mostly from the infamous ROH match, and some DG events I saw around that time. I was going to do a play on play, but forget about it. Just complete CHAOS from the beginning, oh my god this is insane and super funt. Everything looks great, crowd is hot and into this the whole time. I literally screamed when the guy asked for everyone to get in the ring for a chop contest. Great comedy spots as well. They were doing the popular acts in modern indie wrestling, only 15 years ago. Mind blowing. Man! I need a minute to breath. My suggestion to you is a personal favorite, from a fun event and with a small but super hot crowd: Hotstuff Hernandez vs Low Ki, from IWA-Deep South https://vk.com/video3778960_165198973
April 18, 20187 yr comment_5843263 Sorry I'm late. I had to go out of town for the weekend. For Tim Evans, here's Steve Corino vs. Shinya Hashimoto.
April 18, 20187 yr comment_5843344 I'm gonna step out for this week, because of workload. If somehow laz & joeg pop up with the matches they were supposed to give me in the past 2 weeks, I'll still review them, though.
April 18, 20187 yr comment_5843360 Please keep me out for the forseeable future. I'm so far behind on watching matches and with overtime hitting me, I don't think it's fair to keep taking matches without giving back.
