| 1 | 24.12.2020 | PUNQ | 5.0 | Good show for building up for the next big one (which was partially cancelled because of Covid), but I didn't feel the matches here lived up to expectations. Solid, for sure, but not much that'll stand-out in the long run. Hajime Ohara & Kinya Okada -vs- Hitoshi Kumano & Seiya Morohashi [* 1/2], Mohammed Yone & Tadasuke -vs- Akitoshi Saito & Masao Inoue [* 1/4], Daisuke Sekimoto & Ryuichi Kawakami -vs- Masa Kitamiya & Yoshiki Inamura [** 1/2], Dragon Bane -vs- El Hijo de Canis Lupus [** 1/4], Kenoh & Haoh & Nioh -vs- Shuhei Taniguchi & Minoru Tanaka & Junta Miyawaki [**], Katsuhiko Nakajima -vs- Hideki Suzuki [** 3/4] The last 5 minutes are quality. The rest consisted of oddly passive fighting. Either their styles doesn't mix well, or they didn't have a strong enough plan going out there. I was still intrigued, or baffled, always questioning what they were attempting during those early stages. Even if it didn't fully click, it did feel a little different than the ordinary formula. Daisuke Harada & HAYATA & YO-HEY -vs- Yoshinari Ogawa & Kotaro Suzuki & Atsushi Kotoge [**], Takashi Sugiura & Kazuyuki Fujita -vs- Go Shiozaki & Kaito Kiyomiya [** 1/4] |
