| 1 | 14.11.2017 | PUNQ | 3.0 | Ryota Hama & Yasufumi Nakanoue & Takuya Nomura -vs- Ryuichi Kawakami & Yoshihisa Uto & Kazumi Kikuta [*], Kazuki Hashimoto & Yuya Aoki -vs- Tatsuhiko Yoshino & Kota Sekifuda [* 1/4], Minoru Fujita & Masaya Takahashi & Takayuki Ueki -vs- Jaki Numazawa & Takumi Tsukamoto & Toshiyuki Sakuda – (Barbed Wire Board Death Match) [*], Daisuke Sekimoto & Kohei Sato -vs- Daichi Hashimto & Hideyoshi Kamitani – (Saikyo Tag League 2017 – Strong Block) [* 3/4] Had something, just not much of it. At least one of the better offerings from Sekimoto on this mini-tour outside of Tokyo. Hideki Suzuki & Shogun Okamoto -vs- Yuji Okabayashi & Shingo Takagi – (Saikyo Tag League 2017 – Strong Block) [**] I’m digging the Okabayashi & Takagi team. Even for a minimal effort like this they feel special. I’m still taken off-guard by Okabayashi’s jobbing out in Sapporo, this time submitting to Suzuki. Abdullah Kobayashi & Ryuji Ito -vs- Yuko Miyamoto & Isami Kodaka – (Saikyo Tag League 2017 – Death Block; Fluorescent Lighttubes Board Death Match) [* 1/2] A selection of their usual hardcore spots. Masashi Takeda (c) -vs- Kankuro Hoshino – (BJW Death Match Title; 4 sided Fluorescent Tower + Kenzan Death Match) [* 3/4] Wasn’t like Masashi Takeda’s first defense of the BJW Death Match Title was any essential hardcore outing. The crushing lighttube spots were naturally the highlights, but this felt small-league for a title match, even by Big Japan’s small show mentality. |
