Takashi Sugiura vs. Ulka Sasaki

[5.0] "Sasaki faced the veteran Sugiura in a solid match with a simple story: rookie vs. experience. Sugiura controlled the pacing throughout due to his experience, but Sasaki was impressive and resilient during the early technical exchanges. Though Sugiura was the dominant competitor, Sasaki held his own with his bursts of offense, hard-hitting strikes, and suplexes. In the end, an Olympic Slam from Sugiura led to his victory, but Sasakis performance was promising. The match served its purpose, but wasnt the cards standout. 2.75 stars."

[6.0] "A super solid debut match for Ulka, Fun with a good easy story and he showed just how good he was about to be"

[6.0] "This was a decent match, mostly carried by Sugiura's experience. However, Ulka holds his own against the veteran in an impressive singles match debut."

[6.0] "A decent first showing from Sasaki. Can't say I was particularly intrigued by his work but he did fine and Suguira carried things well. ***"
