[1994-04-03-UWFi-Pro Wrestling World Tournament: First Round] Masahito Kakihara vs Dan Severn

Now we're talking. Probably the best match of the show, made only better by Kakihara's underdog performance. Loved the initial suplex spot, with Severn fighting for it and Kakihara's facials as he's trying to avoid it. Severn's got the weight advantage and he uses that to his...advantage...whereas Kaki's got the speed and he's able to slip out when he finds an opening. Severn has some cool throws, including a gutwrench, and Kaki's kicks are on point. Dan keeps trying to kill Kaki with a modified STF but Kaki's able to escape each attempt, trying to cut out Dan's legs to set up the kneebar. His roll through ankle pick was very dope, and leads to the kneebar finish and the big win for Kakihara.  Good stuff!
