Migs Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 The announcers make a big deal that this might be their last match. They'd do the match again next week. This goes barely five minutes. They both hug Hat Guy to start, which enrages the other fans for some reason. Some nice sequences, but both guys are also working later and keeping it low key. They do some light crowd brawling. Just as the match is getting going, Nick Mondo runs in to attack Crazy. Not much at all to this one, very skippable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSR Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 This is being billed as “the possible final meeting of all time” between Crazy and Tajiri, as the latter “could be bound very soon to another organization”. We get a handshake between the two as a mark of respect for all that they’ve put the other through, before both step out the ring and hug ‘Hat Guy’ who’s in the front row. Leg trip by Crazy. He then grapevines the leg, locking on a variation of the Indian deathlock and Tajiri is forced to go to the ropes for the break. Tajiri with a drop toe hold, STF and this time it’s Crazy who goes to the ropes. Handspring elbow and Crazy rolls to the floor. He pulls Tajiri out after him, quickly darts back inside, pescado but Tajiri sees it coming and he crashes to the concrete. Crazy kicks out of a sunset flip and then levels Tajiri with a clothesline. Moonsault off the bottom, moonsault off the middle, but before he can moonsault off the top, Nick Mondo jumps him, presumably looking to get a bit of payback after what happened in Delaware. Tajiri comes to his long-time rival’s aid, smacking Mondo on the ass to get his attention and then kicking him in the chin (that looked fantastic). Ric Blade joins the fun and it doesn’t take long for Mondo to realise that this wasn’t the smartest of ideas and get out of dodge. The wrestling was smooth, but as a match this was another disappointing outing from the former ECW guys. Tajiri and Crazy both have other matches later in the show and this smacked of “Tajiri is signing with the WWF, so let’s chuck him and Crazy together to open the card so that we can say their last ever encounter took place in CZW”. The fact that it only goes four minutes doesn’t do anything to detract from that thought. The Mondo interference at least plays off the events in Delaware and adds to the three-way later in the night. You’ll struggle to find a worse Crazy vs Tajiri match than this.
