Manami Toyota vs. Meiko Satomura

[9.0] "Great match between two legends. I'm not gonna lie i felt like most of the match was carried by Satomura, i know Toyota was past her prime but until final minutes she did nothing beyond good (ofc i'm not blaming her but i just don't get this huge hype for this performance) Meiko did awesome job here and you could really tell she is THE future best. Also i think that 2 DVD's and Scorpio Rising should have ended that match not a roll up but still it was very good match. ****, 25"

[10.0] "This was a very good match between Manami Toyota and Meiko Satomura. It stadted off a lil slow then they started going back and forth through the whole match. Both looked strong and very good. Hard hitting and technical match."

[10.0] "This is one of the coolest generational clashes I can think of! Manami Toyota, queen of 90s joshi boom (I'll always be an Aja Kong fan first, but still). Meiko Satomura, who rode the joshi collapse better than anyone and spearheaded the eventual revival of the scene in the 10s. Here they meet between their eras but holy smokes, both are incredibly on point and ready to beat the living hell out of each other. And they super did! Both of them looked absolutely amazing and laid out all the big bombs, strikes, and all around gritty fighting they could muster. This enters my top 5 of 2007."

[9.0] "Nice story in the first two-thirds of the match. It was clear that the two were evenly matched in terms of the strength of their offense but Toyota, as the more experienced, was able to remain in control for longer periods of time with submission holds and smart tactics. All that story went out of the window for the final stretch which prevents this from getting a 10. However, it was still a load of fun as the two just traded bombs and big moves. Really good match as you'd expect from these two. Enjoyed it a lot"

[10.0] "This was a very good match between two of the greatest joshis. It was competitive and it had drama. The counters were great and the finishing sequence was good."

[8.0] "The greatest of all time versus the rival to the throne' There is a strong case to be made that we saw exactly that here. Meiko Satomura was still a few years from truly achieving the Goddess tier form that she has claimed for a decade now, but she was already among the elite. Manami Toyota was perhaps beyond her prime, but had evolved as a wrestler to the point of being able to offer something new. In this one, we saw both wrestlers throw bomb after bomb, and counter one another with the very offense that the other was throwing their way. We also got the Manami Roll, which always gets a pop out of me. It was a great game of one-upmanship, as well as a great moment that helped validate Sendai Girls' Pro Wrestling as a factor. If there is no other reason to watch this match, seeing two GOAT candidates go at it was a treat. 4.25 stars, 8.5 out of 10."

[8.0] "A total bomb fest from the very beginning, with an excellent performance from Satomura. There were a few things holding this back (overkill on the near-falls at the end, flat finish) but overall this is a ridiculously fun contest."

[9.0] "Even though finish in this match didn't happened when it peaked, this was an awesome match. Another hidden gem that is available to watch for free on Youtube, but for some reason doesn't get attention."

[10.0] "Now THIS, this is a classic. One of Manami Toyota's final performances while still in the argument for world's best worker, "competing" on the same level as what one might consider the heir apparant to that crown. Highly recommended, and I cannot believe that I have never seen this match discussed anywhere. *****"
