soup23 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Liger's destruction of the juniors continues. I have enjoyed these for what they were besides the Kanemoto dome one. Here, Samurai is positioned as a lower level opponent but a long time foil for Liger and that is utilized throughout the match with Samurai taking a lot of chances and viciousness being on display in Liger dispatching Samurai. After the match, we get a clip of Chono looking on and he seems to have some words for Liger. **3/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 We see five minutes of a spectacular 8 minute match. Liger obliterates the late El Samurai and does a great job getting the crowd to rally for his kickouts, turning Samurai into quite the underdog. This is a new dynamic for these two, with Liger as the heel bully and Samurai as the sympathetic underdog. Pretty cool how these two have had so many very different and interesting matches against (and alongside) each other in the same promotion for 8 years. This further establishes Liger for his imaginary heavyweight run that we can bitch about later and Samurai gave a terrific performance, which has me wondering just how long he had fuel in the tank. Short, but unique with big impact. ***1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonsault Marvin Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 The clipped match starts with Liger seemingly finishing off El Samurai, but he is able to kick out of the brainbuster and stage a comeback. Samurai basically misses on a somersault plancha, but otherwise has a good run of offense. When Liger regains the advantage, he upgrades his brainbuster to a brainbuster superplex to beat Samurai. These guys have always been great opponents with a lot of chemistry. Good match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiva Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 More great stuff from Evil Liger which sees the tanks actually get some good shots in on Godzilla. It isn't enough in the end but man, what a great sprint. The ending brainbuster looks suitably devastating after two excellent, explosive performances. I'm not sure what I've enjoyed the most so far this year: Evil Liger or El Satanico being a complete bastard. Viva heels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
