Posted October 28, 200816 yr comment_5435419 DVD 9 5/1/86: Tag match is on Classics 234, Gauntlet matches are on Classics 230 and 231 Antonio Inoki & Umanosuke Ueda vs. Andre the Giant & KY Wakamatsu - Everyone but Andre juiced, and the fans seemed to enjoy watching Wakamatsu finally get his comeuppance. But for a match designed to feel like a satisfying brawl, there wasn't much satisfying brawling. Keichii Yamada vs. Nobuhiko Takada Seiji Sakaguchi vs. Nobuhiko Takada Seiji Sakaguchi vs. Kazuo Yamazaki Seiji Sakaguchi vs. Osamu Kido Shiro Koshinaka vs. Osamu Kido Kengo Kimura vs. Osamu Kido Kengo Kimura vs. Yoshiaki Fujiwara Tatsumi Fujinami vs. Yoshiaki Fujiwara Tatsumi Fujinami vs. Akira Maeda The beginning was good and the ending fantastic, but the middle section, with either Sakaguchi or Kido in five straight matches, dragged. I still think it should go on because of the blood and craziness at the end, but it didn't hold a candle to the '84 Ishingun-Seikigun series. 4/29/86: Antonio Inoki & Tatsumi Fujinami vs. Dick Murdoch & The Masked Superstar - Throwaway performance despite the talent involved.
