Good to see Saito back. He absolutely killed Kimura with a couple of suplexes. And he and Choshu busted up Fujinami's nose. They didn't build any great drama around the in-peril segments, but I'll nominate this one for the violence. I won't be surprised if it fails to make the cut, given all the good Ishingun v. Seikigun stuff.

I agree with Childs on every single point. If Phil is really enthused with it, lets put it on but this isn't a high-end nomination.

I think this should go on, bloody nose, stiff supexing Saito killing folks and an actual clean finish, but this above your average Army match. This is the best Kimura leg lariat I have ever seen.

I am going to hold off moving it until I rewatch the match.

Early on, Saito keeps ripping Fujinmami's head off with headlock takedowns so when they meet again, Fujianmi tries to keep him grounded. Good deal. Choshu coming off the top rope to do.... nothing was awkward. I didn't notcie it before but some of those suplexes are really painful looking... All Japan headdrop era painful. Nice teamwork by Choshu and Saito and they worked it good enough where it didn't really feel like Army-by-numbers. The leg lariat would have played better if Kimura would have kept Choshu in that position and attempted the pin where Chohsu landed perfectly in the rollup position. That top-rope knee looked evil by Choshu. I liked this much better on second viewing but will only move it to the LOVE category on Childs' blessing. If not, it goes in doubt.

We can move to LOVE, as that would leave us each with 10 personal picks, I think. Or we could move one of the other DOUBT matches that everyone liked. Maybe Hansen v. Inoki 4/23/81, Inoki/Kosh v. Choshu/Hase from 4/11/88 or the 11/1/89 six-man with Pritchard, Liger, Vader et. al??

Ok, we'll move this to Doubt for now. This needs a stronger recommendation from you to move to LOVE
