2 | 12.04.2021 | killowenskill | 2.0 | What this match should ideally be like, I saw at the beginning of the match between Bate and Dar - a demonstration of good technique with a comedic note. Akito and Shota went down a different path, it was a long and harrowing spectacle disguised as a careful study of each other and a clever fight, and all the comedic elements were just weird. I would love to laugh, and watching the DDT show I kind of want to do it, but I couldn't. The ending was the same as the whole match. The saddest thing is that seeing this sign, I didn't expect anything else. They work well with other wrestlers, but don't really fit in the "technique-technique" bundle. Akito on the smaller shows, besides, doesn't try at all (*). |
