Superstar Sleeze Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Unfortunately for wrestling fans, the Japanese have not figured out cloning yet and this is NOT Akiyama vs Akiyama. It is Yuji Nagata & Taguchi representing New Japan Pro Wrestling. NOAH (Jun Akiyama & KENTA) vs New Japan ( Yuji Nagata & Rysuke Taguchi) - NOAH 7.24.10 Surprised this did as well on Ditch's balloting as it did. Very good match but felt pretty routine to me. The standout was of course early on when Nagata draws blood hardway on Kenta by hitting him so hard in the head. The way you find out is a drips of blood start to mysteriously appear on Nagata's body from KENTA's head so that was pretty sick. Then Akiyama's reaction to that was to drop a bomb on Taguchi's Funky Weapon ass. The Funky Weapon was lame. I cant believe by whipping Akiyama in the guardrail he actually got heat on him and went toe to toe down the stretch with KENTA. There was nothing credible about this dude. He took me out of the match. The heat on Akiyama was just there for me. I liked the hot tag to KENTA. He is a great asskicker, but he let the Funky Weapon get too much in my opinion. Nagata vs KENTA was a great pairing of stiffness and contempt. I would watch a singles match between those two. Nagata vs Akiyama was a good heavyweight bombfest down the stretch. Akiyama actually needed a wrist clutch exploder to put the Funky Weapon away. Whatever. The Nagata stuff was fun. The Taguchi stuff was not believeable. Nothing to go out of your way to see. A good tag match with some heat. ***1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
