Tana/Okada wasn't quite on the same level as those other matches for me though that might just be cause I was watching it on a comedown :shobon:

HM - G1 Climax Night 1 [7/6]
KENTA vs Kota Ibushi

Went back and watched a couple of these to make sure I wasn't over/underrating them. Felt like KENTA/Ibushi was a slight bit sloppy (which is understandable I think) and could've used two or three more minutes for finishing sequence.

don't think I need to nth this for it to count but its great so I shall anyway.

will also nth the Emi Sakura vs Riho: Gatoh Move, 2nd July match for MOTY since its also great and you should watch it.

Just watched the Fyter Fest 3 way women's match (Nyla Rose vs Yuka Sakazaki vs Riho) and I'd like to nth HM for that: it was a very fun match and Nyla Rose is very good at a lot of things where she needs to be very good: and the other two, well, no need to really say anything about how great they are. Really hyped for the Riho-Yuka singles: the tag that they were involved in in January owned and based on that this should.

e: oh also HM: Sendai Girls World Junior Championship: Mikoto Shindo vs Manami, Sendai Girls Big Show in Niigata, 8th June: as much as I really like Utami on a pure technical level Mikoto is probably better and is the best rookie in wrestling at the moment: and this was a very very good rookie match. Manami isn't at the level of other Joshi rookies at the moment (no insult; she's like 14 and the level I'm talking about is super super high when you consider Mikoto and the other Marvelous rookies, Mei Suruga, Utami, Suzu Suzuki etc etc) but she's still good and in a rookie match like this it leads to something that's very very fun.

Riho's last match before leaving Gatoh Move just a few days after getting back from Fyter Fest.

Seconded! Finally watched this and it was wonderful. Riho's double foot stomps are so good. A great match to watch if you've liked her in AEW but aren't that familiar with her yet and want to see her in her element!

Also I need to go to a show at Shinjuku Face next time I'm in Tokyo, place looks cool.

Page vs PAC was a very good match marred by a bad finish. If given five more minutes, a clean finish, and a bigger but equally hot crowd, this would have been a MOTYC.

Lee & Mistico vs. Angel & Roja was the semifinals of that family tag team tournament CMLL slapped together, and was probably the highlight of it.

Cavernario & Lee did better in January, but this was still almost a MOTYC for me.
