MOTYC
22nd May
Dragon Gate King of Gate Night 6
Dragon Kid vs Susumu Yokosuka

I love these 2 guys, they have amazing chemistry and deliver an absolute banger, probably my fave Match of the tournament so far. The things Kid can do at 45 beggar belief.

Great match featuring some of the greatest talent in the promotion (and BUSHI) bringing their A-game. Just super fun overall and continues the apparent Naito/Ishii blood feud in a nice way.

MOTYC: Pencil Army VS Chris Brooks, Asuka & Yuna Mizumori, CHOCOPRO #120 5/24/21

While perhaps not quite the same level of excitement as the previous Pencil Army tag match, there were a whole bunch of spots you don't usually see in ChocoPro, including a table splash, an exposed surface DDT, and Lulu Pencil making the whole distance on a jump. The post-match devastation and promo put it over an HM for me.

Lulu Pencil vs. Brookes is the best, most heated feud in wrestling at the moment. You can fight me on that.

Nth

Chris Brookes is a fantastic heel and they quite literally tore the place down. Also Chris selling for people quite literally half his size is tremendous.

Abismo Negro Jr vs Aramis vs El Hijo del Vikingo vs Latigo vs Villano III Jr

This has to be close to the Platonic ideal of the multiman sprint. It's just boom-boom-boom, all killer no filler, ridiculous spot into ridiculous spot into ridiculous spot. Everyone gets to look rad, they all have their role to play here. Someone might deride this as a spotfest but who the gently caress cares when the action is this drat good?

Late on posting this, but what the gently caress ever:

WMOTYC: Rhea Ripley vs Nikki Cross, WWE RAW 5/24/21

This entire match was a (hilarious) disaster. You had Rhea claim she could beat Nikki Cross in two minutes after Charlotte said she could. So basically Rhea has two minutes to beat Nikki.

Now this is where it gets falls off the rails: Rhea spends all of the first minute taunting Nikki Cross with lovely childish taunts. And then spends the next minute kicking Nikki's rear end nonstop until time expires. Then she is SHOCKED she lost. Commentary was shocked as well.

Nth'ing this as I just watched the entire match. The champion looks like an idiot, nothing will come of this anyway since they'll never have Nikki Cross win a big match in her life, and I still don't understand why commentary acted surprised.

Nth this, not that it needs it. It was Gatoh Move so not a style for everyone, but I thought this was very powerful & emotional. The story of the underdog with so much drat heart is a classic for a reason.

DDT Ultimate Tag League May 9th
MOTYC
Yukio Sakaguchi vs Yusuke Okada
- Holy gently caress, this came out of nowhere. Brutality at it's finest as Okada attempts to survive against a killer, short and sweet
37KAMIINA (MAO and Yuki Ueno) vs DisasterBox (HARASHIMA and Naomi Yoshimura)
- Yoshimura's first match back after a six month injury, and he immediately made up for lost time by beating the hell out of his former tag partner Ueno. As good as Nautilus were as a tag team, they're just as good facing off against each other. Add in MAO and HARASHIMA to the mix and you've got a phenominal match.
37KAMIINA (Shunma Katsumata and Konosuke Takeshita) vs Damnation (Daisuke Sasaki and Yuji Hino)
- Yuji Hino is such a fuckin hoss, he's absolutely perfect as a man mountain for people to (try to) chop down to size. All four of these guys rule, it's like the Sauna boys didn't want to be upstaged by their compatriots in the earlier match by going balls to the wall. A little bit of interference by Damnation, but not nearly enough for me to dock points from this spectacle.

ALSO MOTYC
Team Thoroughbred (Sanshiro Takagi and Yukio Naya) vs DisasterBox (Kazuki Hirata and Toru Owashi) vs Akito and Keigo Nakamura vs Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine
- Reverse Battle Royale, but not the TNA kind. All 8 guys are at ringside, and if you get tossed into the ring (and maybe into the bleachers as well? Wasn't super clear on that) your team is eliminated. Absolute insanity from start to finish.

Holy poo poo, what an awesome show. Great way to kick off Tag League, make time to watch if you've got a Universe subscription

nth on all these, but I adjusted the reverse battle royal to be MOTYC as well. I'm sure it won't be everyone's cup of tea but I absolutely loved it. Hardest I've laughed in a while.

Re: the bleachers, I don't think they got eliminated, but they had to deal with the stern usher who kept them tied up with apologies for messing up prestigious korakuen hall. I think the winner was just whoever was able to get someone into the ring first.

MOTYC: Citrus Wind (Nanae Takahashi & Arisa Nakajima) (c) vs. Las Fresas de Egoistas (ASUKA & Makoto) for the Beyond the SEA Tag Team Championship - SEAdLINNNG Shinkiba Night (5/26)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g7Fhp5NA88

SEAdLINNNG's tag division has been on fire for a while and this match continued that hot streak. Wrestling is always at its best and most simple when you have people going at each other who look like they hate each other and whenever Asuka and Arisa Nakajima are going at it there is no shortage of venom to draw you into the match. Special shoutout to Makoto, who going into this match I expected to just be there to make up the numbers in the ring with three of the best but ended up being perhaps the MVP of this match.

After the match Ryo Mizunami returned to SEAdLINNNG to challenge Asuka for her singles championship so watch this space for another MOTYC nomination from me.

Nth. I was on the fence, but if a match shows me something awesome that I've never seen before, that automatically bumps it up. I don't know what the hell you call that move Hijo del Vikingo did midway through - like a springboard tornillo INTO a top rope hurricanrana to the outside (one of the few replay spots) - but I was :stare:

for a solid minute after that. Then he followed it up with a 630 and landed on his feet. Dude's only 24, he's going to be something really special.

- Desperation from both teams with everything to play for, edge of the seat stuff. Loved it
37KAMIINA (Shunma Katsumata and Konosuke Takeshita) vs Damnation (Yuji Hino and Daisuke Sasaki)
- gently caress yeah we get an encore to break the tie. Shunma is absolutely hosed after the match he just had with Junretsu and Damnation take full advantage of this by beating the gently caress out of him. Poor lego boy has absolutely no hope, since his partner Takeshita is also goodamn exhausted. This had me so goddamn invested, my favourite match DDT have done this year, and a great way to finish the tournament

HM
Chris Brookes and 37KAMIINA (MAO and Yuki Ueno) vs Yusuke Okada, Akito and Yukio Naya
- Some fun odd couple combinations with Chris and the Sauna Boys, Akito remains smooth as hell, and we got a Kaientai pose. Good fun all round
Eruption (Yukio Sakaguchi and Kazusada Higuchi) vs Damnation (Yuji Hino and Daisuke Sasaki)
- Real good hard hitting action, but it fell short of what I know these guys can do when they're going all out
