Dragon Gate Infinity 66

1. Yoshinobu Kanemaru & Genki Horiguchi vs. Susumu Yokosuka & Ryo Saito - *** (fine match)

2. Dragon Gate Maximum Weakest 3 Way Match, Hair (Tozawa) vs. Mask (Dr. Muscle) vs. No Divorce (Ichikawa): Dr. Muscle vs. Akira Tozawa vs. Stalker Ichikawa - DUD (this sucked)

3. Gamma & Kinta Tamaoka vs. CIMA & Tatsunori Ohya - ** (Both Gamma and Kinta are terrible, match had CIMA in it so it wasn't all bad)

4. Magnitude Kishiwada vs. Hi69 - N/A (too heavily clipped, what I saw was okay)

5. GHC Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Title: Naruki Doi & Masato Yoshino vs. Kotaro Suzuki & Ricky Marvin (c) - ***3/4 (Suzuki and Marvin seemed to half-ass this one, it was still great though)

6. Seiya Morohashi & Ken Ohka vs. Shingo Takagi & Cyber Kong - **1/2 (Those 2 other random dudes sucked, Shingo and Kong were awesome though)

7. Stalker Ichikawa Z vs. Yoshinori Yamamoto - DUD (sucked)

8. Ryo Saito & APE Kimata vs. Dragon Kid & Perrot Fujii - N/A (heavily clipped, what I saw sucked though)

9. Magnitude Kishiwada, Genki Horiguchi & Gamma vs. CIMA, Susumu Yokosuka & Lupin Matsutani - **1/2 (Nothing special and when it started to get going it ended)

Overall thoughts: This was terrible. Every serious match (ie no Ichikawa matches) was dissapointing, and everything just sucked. Even the GHC Jr. tag title match doesn't redeem this thing from its suckage)

Overall score: 2/10.

This is the first time I saw a shitty Dragon Gate star rating show.

LL4E · 08-05-2007, 03:48 PM

I notice a decent amount of talk about the Dragon Gate promotion. Ive been meaning to pick up some shows of theirs, however I have no idea where to start. Ive been told "get everything from 2005", but that just isnt convential. So if anyone can help me out and list the best of the best shows from DG it would be greatly appreciatted.

KOBE World show 05 (beginning of July, I dunno the exact date)
KOBE World show 06 (02/7/06)

Those 2 are a good place to start.

Watched CZW TOD 6 and im not gonna do ratings because of the deathmatch content, but if your into that kind of thing, check it out. Also just watched disc 1 of CHIKARA KOT night 3 and all i can say is 17 team tag gauntlet = everything that is great about CHIKARA.

Cool. How did you find the first 2 semi final matches? I thought they were awesome, and quite underrated (from the ratings on here I've seen).

The KOW/Japanese team was solid, if a lttle short. The Quack,Storm,Jigsaw/Mexican team was alot of fun if maybe a bit sloppy in places.
The tag gauntlet was awesome, i loved it.

I really loved the KOW/Japanese team, and I agree, the lucha match was a bit sloppy in places, but very luchariffic, and I love luchariffic matches

Dragon Gate Infinity 67

1. Yuki Ono, Taku Iwasa, Kenichiro Arai & Akira Tozawa vs. Atsushi Aoki, BxB Hulk, Anthony W. Mori & Dragon Kid - *** (Fun opener)

2. Kengo Takai & Magnitude Kishiwada vs. Yasushi Kanda & Kintaro Kanemura - ** (Decent brawl/match)

3. Open the Brave Gate Title: Genki Horiguchi vs. Matt Sydal (c) - ***1/2 (Damn good match)

4. Stalker Ichikawa Z Bosou 10 Match Series 1st: Jun Akiyama vs. Stalker Ichikawa Z - N/A (Not much of a match)

5. Cyber Kong vs. Masaaki Mochizuki - ***1/4 (Kong's performance wasn't as good as I expected it to be, still a kickass match)

6. Open the Triangle Gate Title: Gamma, Naruki Doi & Masato Yoshino (c) vs. CIMA, Susumu Yokosuka & Ryo Saito - ****_****1/4 (AWESOME match)

7. Open the Dream Gate Title: Jushin Thunder Liger vs. Don Fujii (c) - ***1/2 (A bit slow in places but great selling throughout and some good nearfalls)

Overall thoughts: This was pretty good. The Triangle Gate match was superb, the main event was good and Kong/Mochi & Genki/Sydal were both real good. The rest isn't anything special, but still fun. A good infinity, better than the last one for sure.

Overall score: 7.5/10.

So you know that 1hr40mn Infinity is cut down from a 3hr+ PPV, so everything is clipped worse than usual. I'll up the Triangle Gate in full soon.
