Re: NJPW 1/4 Results
I thought No Limit vs. MCMG was match of the night - *** 3/4 - **** Really awesome spot-fets (which I like a lot usually) without too much direction. Still, Alex Shelley's bloody nose, and the nice double teams and great pace throughout made this match very enjoyable to a sprint-freak such as myself.
Main Event - **3/4 - Could have been such a good match but this seriously suffered from a serious case of WAY TOO MANY FALSE FINISHERS SYNDROME. I mean after Mutoh Dragon Screw Leg Whips Tanahashi for like the millionth time, and, off the top rope, then hits the Shining Wizard for the thousandth time, and of course Tanahashi kicks out, then Mutoh pus him in the Fig 4 for the 15th time right in the center of the ring, but Tanahashi fights it off and gets to the rope so he can hit the High Fly Low for the 7th time... I mean when did finisher stop meaning finisher? This is "I Hit My Finisher 27 Times On The Guy And He Still Kicked Out Syndrome" taken to an extreme. Too bad. It could have been an exceptional match but it got downgraded to just above average because of the ridiculously excessive false finishes. Making a match longer just for the sake of making it longer = FAIL. Fucking bullshit.
