In Short. Entertains the hell out of me.Alright, what kind of things does Sekimoto do better than Sami? For the sake of conversation.
vs AR Fox - also from this year - https://vimeo.com/41540815AKA link me bitches.
Jump on the BJW bandwagon with "BiggestJapan" on YouTube!I've only seen a couple Sekimoto matches, and those were pretty old BJW matches.
Most of Callihan's matches I've seen were from 2010 and 2011 and I really liked them alot. Sami is one of my favorites on the indies atm. But I don't think it's fair for me to vote because I really haven't seen enough of Sekimoto. I think the last match of him I saw was at BJW's 15th Anniversary show..
Callihan has been having a fucking great 2012, as in he is a top five worker in the world at this point. He's been getting good-to-great matches out of flippy indy guys who usually suck and a pretty good match out of DJ Hyde of all people. Plus, he had a good match in Japan, a rarity these days.I've only seen a couple Sekimoto matches, and those were pretty old BJW matches.

This word for word. I really dislike Callihan, it's not even close imo.Not sure how anyone can say any Callihan performance is better than Sekimoto's against Suwama this year.
Callihan's character is his biggest downfall. Genuinely dis-likable and his mannerisms really annoy me in his matches. He's terrible in control of a match. Selling isn't all that good either. Watch his match with Generico from wXw last year. BAD MATCH WITH EL GENERICO. He's good when he's getting his ass kicked and is limited to short bursts of strikes and gets to be a fiery little shithead who wont stay down (Finlay match) but you don't get that Sami often enough and the other Sami sucks.
Sekimoto's just an all round great powerhouse worker. Easy to get behind, amazing seller, gets big reactions from crowds, super execution, great moveset.
Compare the selling on the 3/26 BJW show between Sami and Daisuke both vs Sasaki. Sami's selling was all over the place in the Generico match too. Watch Sekimoto's selling vs Suwama and Sasaki this year and say he's not a great seller. Both cases of selling are better than anything Callihan has ever sold.ダニエル;11406971 said:Repeatedly saying "[Sami's] selling is horrible" and "Sekimoto is a great seller" doesn't prove or demonstrate anything. You're mistaking repeating your opinion for demonstrating that your opinion has merit and explanatory utility over the wrestlers' ring work. There are enough matches on YouTube/Vimeo/Dailymotion for you to find evidence and timecode it (try showing me horribly bad selling from Callihan in any of the matches posted in this thread for a start). Although that also wouldn't really demonstrate anything per se, it'd at least be a step in the right direction!
