Ron Starr vs. Tatsumi Fujinami

[5.0] "This was broadcast as a JIP, but I think we only lose about a minute. I know that Starr will get a bigger match against Fujinami later on, but here he just felt like a gaikokujin-of-the-week for Fujinami to go over, and not an especially remarkable one. He's playing a more standard heel role than the matches I've seen make tape from Fujinami up to this point - Jose Estrada was a heel too, but not a "gaijin heel" (trust me, there's a difference). When Fujinami gets to inject his energy into this it makes the whole thing go down easy enough, though, and the finish is exciting. This match was the Japanese debut of Fujinami's tope, the Dragon Rocket.**1/2"
