superkix Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 They injected a little hate into this, making it feel more personal. The veterans are pissed off Liger busts out the chair, cracking it over KUSHIDA's knee. He's a great leg bully in this and KUSHIDA does a great job selling, at one point desperately clinging to the ref to escape the leglock, and then selling the tilt-a-whirl landing off the fresh tag, an easily overlooked nuance that keeps the leg work relevant. Liger and Nagata are such a fun pairing. I loved Nagata standing vigilantly like a watchdog by Liger's side as he puts KUSHIDA back in the leglock. Lots of cranked-up intensity between Nagata and Shibata. I like how Shibata so calmly avoids Nagata's apron attacks and the fact that Nagata eyefucks Shibata so hard he trips over KUSHIDA during the single leg crab. The final exchange between the two, with Nagata's selling, was a lot of fun, and the finish really set the stage for Dontaku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
