From Dragon Gate's Korakuen Hall 9/11 show. MOTYC: Open the Brave Gate Championship - Yokosuka Susumu vs. Yosuke Santa Maria Maria's secret is that underneath her comedy gimmick she's actually a really good wrestler, and she has the ability to pretty much get any crowd cheering and chanting her name by the end of any serious match she is in.

MOTYC: El Phantasmo Vs Dragon Lee - Super J Cup Final 25/08 Post-match poo poo side (which has been genuinely apologised for) I loved this match. It was brutal in ways that NJPW junior matches don't tend to be normally without sacrificing the character work that ELP is great at and the amazing wrestling of Lee. They were much better matched for each other than I thought they would be.

As someone who frequents Beyond in person, you should at least subscribe to their YouTube for the huge pile of free matches they put out. Edit: KungFu Grip posted:MOTYC Chris Dickinson vs. Daisuke Sekimoto, Beyond Americanrana 7/28 5th (I think?) and a shady streaming video link.

HM: Alex Coughlin vs Shota Umino - Young Lion Cup - Road to Destruction (9/15) The progress these guys have made in such a short amount of time is staggering. Shota adds new pieces to his game every match and Coughlin is perfect in the role of cold-blooded gaijin killer.

I think it's half laziness, and half that the highs weren't as high as the first Bloodsport. Show was solid and a fun watch all around. Since you asked though: HM: Anthony Carelli vs Simon Grimm - Josh Barnett's Bloodsport II 09/14 HM: Davey Boy Smith Jr. vs "Filthy" Tom Lawler - Josh Barnett's Bloodsport II 09/14 HM: Chris Dickenson vs Josh Barnett - Josh Barnett's Bloodsport II 09/14

It's on the verge of just being terrible instead being of worst match of the year but here: WMOTYC: Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross vs Fire and Desire, WWE Clash of Champions 2019. Holy loving poo poo this match was a painful slog. It got divas era bad at points, and the R-Truth 24/7 segment in the middle of the match didn't help matters either.

Let me dump some nominations I had typed up in notepad. First, something old: HM: 04/04 | Super Sasandango Machine vs. Yuki Ueno in a No No Disqualification Match - DDT I Do Not Want To Admit That I Can Not Go To America No, that's not a typo, this is a No No Disqualification match. SSM helpfully explains the rules with a neat PowerPoint™ presentation before the match. I didn't understand any of it, but the concept becomes understood quickly once the match is underway: instead of administering five counts for certain no-nos, the referee blows a whistle and adds a "strike" against the offending wrestler and once they're at five strikes, it's a DQ. So some basic things like a hair pull or going to the top turnbuckle are bad now. And of course both catch on quickly and try to game the system and cheat like motherfuckers. 10 entertaining minutes of comedy with a novel concept for which I think it's worth tracking this one down. And the 5Star GP has finally hit its stride: HM: 09/01 | Momo Watanabe vs. Tam Nakano - Stardom 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Day 4 I'm starting to suspect that this Momo Watanabe gal might be good at putting on matches with a good dramatic arc and at making her opponents look really good. Hell, a week earlier she made a 12 year old rookie look like she could get a pin on her without making herself look weak. Of course Tam is a different caliber and holds her own here resulting in a fast-paced match with counters, dodges and near falls that had me on the edge of my seat pretty much the whole time. MOTYC: 09/07 | Momo Watanabe vs. AZM - Stardom 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Day 5 The leader of Queen's Quest takes on her protege AZM. At only 16, AZM has her brash, fearless character down pat, already has crisp technique and no doubt is headed for a great career. Momo is willing to help her look like a star in the making here, just reinforcing what I wrote above. The result is an absolute nailbiter of a match which should go down as the first really great match of AZM's career. HM: 09/07 | Mayu Iwatani vs. Tam Nakano - Stardom 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Day 5 Two good friends not holding back anything. Excellent pace throughout, but could have used a couple more minutes. HM: 09/08 | Kagetsu vs. Jungle Kyona - Stardom 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Day 6 Both women are 2-2 going into this match, but Kagetsu has been looking shaky even in victory, especially against Jamie Hayter a day earlier. The trend seems to continue here at first, but Kagetsu fights tooth and nail to turn this into a close affair. In the end, the fact that someone has done her homework and studied tape makes the difference. HM: 09/08 | Mayu Iwatani vs. Hazuki - Stardom 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Day 6 Was a little bit torn about whether to include this, but I figured if I nominate Mayu/Tam this deserves a nom as well. Similar in the sense of being fast-paced and exciting. On the shorter side, but that's exactly where Hazuki shines and it doesn't actually feel too short.
