[7.0] "This was a nice show with solid action throughout. No real downers here. Namekawa vs Higgins (***) - Higgins is pretty limited and Namekawa easily controls the match throughout. Kind of a mild shoot. Kanehara vs Grom Zaza (***3/4) - Nice match, more of the realistic house style of RINGS at the time with Kanehara and Zaza focusing on more tight grappling and counterwork. Not much flash. Yamamoto vs Zouev (****) - Pretty nice showing from both as Zouev continues to prove his skill in grappling finesse. Yamamoto puts on a nice display too with some nice counterwork on the mat and some intense palm strikes mixed in. Sakata vs Yamamoto (NR) - Clipped match, this was a shoot-style match with a lot of focus on technical grappling and wrestling, realistic in approach. Tariel vs Han (***) - Another one-sided match where Han doesn't get much offense in, unfortunately. Not sure why Tariel keeps getting squash matches. Tamura vs Naruse (****) - Match kinda drags on a bit too much but this was another nice realistic shoot-style match where it looks like a Pancrase match more than a 1994 RINGS match. Naruse and Tamura never leave second gear, but the work is pretty consistent."
