Crusher Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Masahiro Chono

[5.0] "IDK what to say. The match was for the most part bunch of nothing and few good sequences at the end of the fight. I am not a big fan of Bigelow after this G1 :(."

[7.0] "Based on the fan cam footage I have seen, these two wrestled a very good match and both were over in the building. Chono gets five points in the tournament."

[8.0] "Really good. Bigelow is over but Chono is way way more over, so much so that Bigelow basically works face here without risking Chono's babyface heat. Bigelow is so absurdly crisp here, and hitting a lot of his agility moves, and chaining stuff together in nice combos. However, Chono slowly gets in hits on Bigelow's back, exacerbated by Bigelow's impact moves. Chono even flies! Apron plancha. Then Chono goes for his submissions - first the straight STF, then the modified version. Bigelow needs three goes to submit, keeping him strong. Chono looks great. 4/5"

[7.0] "Best Bam Bam Bigelow match of the tournament. These two wrestlers had good chemistry and they a good match."

[7.0] "A pretty good match despite a global lack of rhythm. The last three / four minutes were a little more intense but there is not much more to say about this one. They were capable to do better. Chono took an important victory here."
