ROH 03/29/08 - Muscle Outlawz vs. Typhoon

Awe-inspiring performance from all six of these guys. As always, they started off by slowly working each other to only have the work rate pick up at the 15 minute mark or so.

Now, theoretically, after pillmanizing each body part, you'd think that the story would be absolutely ripped apart when they started going 100% all out shortly after. I can't make any cases as to why you should forget about the mat work in the beginning stages of the match but we've come to expect these guys having a sprint paced match. If for one minute you didn't believe they'd completely abandon those tactics and turn to a higher work rate than you obviously don't have much knowledge when it comes to Dragon Gate.

Saito/Doi were the bruisers displaying their versatility with all sorts of maneuvers, Genki/CIMA were the vocal leaders of each group battling one another, and Dragon Kid/Yoshino was the war of the high flying, swift juniors.

Lastly, you'd think that after two years of wrestling at the pace they have that these guys would run out of new combos to pull off. Of course they proved me wrong. Honestly, I can't think of a more innovative product than Dragon Gate right now.

Based on my enjoyment, I'd give the match five stars. It was my favorite of the three six man matches thus far and I was completely astonished by the performance put together from this guys. When all is said and done, there were a few noticeable sloppy exchanges that degraded the matches rating.

****1/2

No Rope Barbed Wire Death Match: BJ Whitmer v Jimmy Jacobs (IWA: MS April Blood Showers)

Honestly, I don't really know where I stand on this exactly. I definitely preferred it to their "I Quit", but I'm still not feeling the "BJ/Jimmy match" (in the general sense, as in all of them). In saying that though, I'd put this as their best match.

Both guys take an insane amount of shit in this, and Jimmy Jacobs continues to get the point across that he probably won't live past 50! It's brutal as hell, yet I'm sure I don't love it as much as most. At this point I don't really have much else to say about it as I'm going to give it another watch, but I'm pretty sure this is the absolute best US death match I'll see this year (make of that what you will). ****1/4

Supercard of Honor 3
The Yoshino Show: Muscle Outlawz (Naruki Doi, Masato Yoshino, Genki Horiguchi) vs. Typhoon (CIMA, Ryo Saito, Dragon Kid) - **** 1/2

I'm sure PulseGlazer will have a nifty review of this match sometime soon, so I'll just go with that as my justification for this match being so awesome. Oh and Speed Muscle vs. MCMG on August 2nd, PLZ!

I honestly can't wait 'til I get that show in the mail. It definitely sounds like one of the best shows the company have done, maybe ever.

You get the full show Sephy or just the match itself via download?

Cool, I saw that it was uploaded yesterday but I thought I'd wait until I got the DVD anyway. It's pretty hard not to give in to temptation though, especially after it being as pimped as it is.

Just a quick question, but how good were the 4/18 and 19 shows anyway? I've been pretty much oblivious to what's been going on in ROH for the most part this year.

That idea is win.

Also, why is it the Yoshino show, did he dominate and take his rightful place as the awsomeness that he is?

A wrestling match is like a balanced diet. The basics are carbs, keeping you going. Armdrags may not be the highlight, but they're key to the development. Dairy is emotion and crowd interaction, like bones, they strengthen the match, and in there absense, the it will fall apart. Meat is moves like suplexes and finishers. They’re cool, but if you rely on them you’d be unhealthy, and the matches unwatchable. Mat work is fruits and vegetables. We may not like them, but some is sweet chain wrestling. Last is spots and indy MoVEz~!, your sugars and fats. You can't just eat chocolate, and thus you need to do more than flips and head drops to get above ****.

Maxx, it's the Yoshino show because EVERYTHING is the fuckin' Yoshino show! Speaking of which, I need to get to watching this year's Dragon Gate that I've missed. Meaning all of it...
