[7.0] "Yet another good DGUSA show. Cima vs Gargano was surprisingly good (considering I hate modern-day Gargano). Gargano's speed and fluidity were good, though his move impact was overly flimsy. Cima far overshadowed him with his agility, charisma, and fiery comeback. Cool exchanges as they jockeyed for control towards the end. ***1/4. Cannon vs Ricochet vs Taylor vs Cole was a very, very entertaining spotfest. If you don't like spotfests then you shouldn't be watching DGUSA. Everyone worked well here, with the young, pre-prime Ricochet clearly being the star. ***3/4. Younger vs Doi was pretty skippable. Younger was a last-minute fill-in, if I remember correctly, so his job was just to make Doi look good. **1/2. Hulk vs Mochizuki was a good little match. I enjoyed both guys intelligently trying to scout each other before they began a story of dual leg work. The match slowed down to allow for Hulk's strong babfyace selling, and then his insane bumping started up. His leg-selling was unsurprisingly inconsistent, which hindered his performance and the overall match, but Mochizuki's stiff kicks and intelligent reads/counters kept the match on track. The match was lacking 'that' quality, since it felt like they kept building up to some dramatic moments but then never paid them off, instead losing their tension and having to rebuild it over again. A good overall performance, but a lacking one, too. ***1/4. Chikara Sekigun vs Kamikazi USA was a slopper-than-usual mutli-man tag, with the non-DG talent being notably off their mark at points; thankfully, the DG wrestlers picked up the slack. The pace continued to pick up until everyone was at a full-on sprint reminiscent of your typical DG multi-man tag as seen in Japan. I didn't like Kamikaze USA looking so weak at the end, but the double submission on Yamato and Tozawa at least made for a unique finish to a match like this. ***1/4 - ***1/2. Danielson vs Shingo was obviously the MOTN. It wasn't the 9. 00+ MOTY I'd heard it hyped up as (just like Danielson vs Doi), but it was still truly great (also just like Danielson vs Doi). Both men had fantastic strikes, and then they differentiated from each other as Danielson had his awesome grappling and limb-work while Shingo had his thundering power moves. They both showed heaps of passion and desperation in the second half, and I really loved Danielson's finish teases with the Cattle Mutilation. ****"
