Dan Tamura vs. Naruki Doi

[5.0] "I guess the idea here was that Doi did enough damage to Tamura's right arm after avoiding his Lariat on the outside (Tamura hit the ring post instead, and Doi was in control for a while after that), but Tamura's selling was so wildly inconsistent that his performance was all over the place because of that. Doi's veteran wit and timing helped 'save' this match, but Tamura gained nothing out of this title match imo. **3/4"

[6.0] "A smartly wrestled match pitting the experience of the wily old veteran vs the young power jr who relies on his strength. It was never really very compelling or exciting though."
