This match was a goddamn blast, Maki Itoh's interactions with Mei Saint-Michel were incredible, she did the Macho Man Resurrection Elbow spot with her headbutt, and MSM actually took it to World Champion Miyu Yamashita regularly during the match. Plus Sakisama and Miyu throwing kicks. And that ending... :kiss:

Spending my day off catching up with the taped shows i've missed this week. Wrestle Universe is such incredible value, nothing was transcedent but I was entertained by pretty much everything.

DDT Dramatic Dream Tour in Hiroshima (Afternoon Show) June 12th
HM
Eruption (Yukio Sakaguchi and Kazusada Higuchi) vs Junretsu (Makoto Oishi and Hideki Okatani)
- Looking at the participants here it was very obvious who was taking the fall, but how we got there was very good indeed

37KAMIINA (MAO, Konosuke Takeshita and Yuki Ueno) vs DisasterBox (HARASHIMA, Naomi Yoshimura and Kazuki Hirata)
- When the worst wrestler in the match is Kazuki Hirata then you know you're in for a good time. Not as balls to the wall as some of their other tiny show main events, but still great work from everyone involved. I was close to giving it a MOTYC nod off the strength of Hirata's TOKYOOOO bit post match, it was hilarious. This match is well worth a watch if you care at all about these guys.

DDT Dramatic Dream Tour in Hiroshima (Evening Show) June 12th
HM
Naomi Yoshimura vs Hideki Okatani
- Ah, the young lion vs the vet. Work hard, show heart, give us some hope for your victory, then get summarily executed. Good times, Yoshimura is sucha great hoss

37KAMIINA (Shunma Katsumata, Konosuke Takeshita and Yuki Ueno) vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Iino and Akito
- What a goddamn hodgepodge facing down the sauna boys, didn't stop them from putting on an intense, high paced match. Highlight was the interactions between Shunma and Iino calling back to some of their history in ALL OUT

HARASHIMA and Kenshin Chikano vs Yukio Sakaguchi and Yukio Naya
- Really impressed with Chikano taking Sakaguchi's shots and coming back with some real solid ones of his own. Harashima and Sakaguchi were good as always and Naya was less awkward in the ring than he usually is.

Damnation (Daisuke Sasaki, Yuji Hino and Hiroshi Yamato) vs Junretsu (Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi and Yusuke Okada)
- Happy to see even Uncle Jun has his working boots on in front of barely 100 people. Everyone was good, and Yamato's postmatch segment was absolute gold

Ganbare Pro Face/Off June 12th
HM
Shigehiro Irie and Miyako Matsumoto vs Keisuke Ishii and HARUKAZE
- Miyacoco is an absolute treasure, both she and Harukaze played really well off the mixed tag nature of the tournament. Irie and Ishii no slouches either, this was a great match all around. Irie's cannonball into the corner looked especially brutal.

Shinjiro Otani vs Shu Sakurai
- Completely forgot this match was on the card when I queued up the video and was throughly impressed. Otani continues to rule and Sakurai beat the poo poo out of him

ASUKA and Shinichiro Tominaga vs Itsuki Aoki and Kouki Iwasaki
- Came in not knowing the non-Asuka participants, and came out wanting to see more from all of them. Real good from everyone.

TJPW Spring Tour ~ The Bullet ~ June 12th
HM
Miu Watanabe vs Moka Miyamoto
- How cruel TJPW is making Miu do her UUG performance in the opener and then putting her on first to do the Miu Rap in her entrance. Eagerly awaiting when Moka gets that breakout singles win, I dig her little karate flourishes and most of her stuff looked crisp here. Miu is good as always and got to show of her insane strength which is a definite plus.

121000000 (Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh) vs Nao Kakuta and Raku
- Probably my favourite rendition of the Good Night Express so far, burst out laughing when it clicked what they were doing. Raku and Nao were good in their role as lumps to make 1toMillion look in the lead up to them challenging the French

NEO Biishiki-gun (Sakisama and Mei Saint-Michel) vs Moka Miyamoto and Raku

Miyu Yamashita and Yuka Sakazaki vs Nodoka Tenma and Shoko Nakajima
- Some of Shoko's offence was very sloppy, but I was very much entertained by Yuka being pure evil against poor Tenma in the leadup to the hot tag. Miyu also took some time out of her busy schedule being the absolute coolest to heel it up as well, plus she deadlifted Tenma like it was nothing which looked super impressive.
