Posted September 8, 20187 yr comment_5865814 This is from that time when Sato somehow almost won the first DDT election, and as a result they gave him a brief title run. It is a contendership match, HARASHIMA held the belt after beating Sekimoto in Sumo Hall. This match is good because Sato is great, he spends this match targetting Ibushi's arm. Sato's got a ton of setups for the armbar so even if he's just basically spamming one move, it's really great. Ibushi doesn't sell it for most of the match but it worked because Sato keeps targetting it and it plays into the finish. There's also a disgusting suplex where Ibushi falls on the crown of his head, because it's an Ibushi match.
