Great PPV, loved the core idea of it being LIJ vs. Kongo, loved the set-up for future matches, loved the crowd, and especially loved the various characters getting to interact. Naito and Kenoh in particular feel like they were MADE to be core life-time rivals, and their match just whet my appetite for more.

The Match itself was what it was, but this is the Angle of the year right here and now. As the clips are starting to go round the internet i see a lot of people even asking if this was a shoot because of how well Kaito and Okada executed this.

I like everyone in this match. Yuu is one of my current favorites anywhere, Unagi's freelance tour has been really solid, Aniki is always a joy to watch, and Chihiro is strong as hell. It's rare to see a hoss fight like this in joshi (obviously Unagi is the exception, but she's good at being thrown around), but watching them try to out-strong each other is a really good time. After a bit of comedy in the intro, the rest of the match is just pure MEATY WOMEN SLAPPIN' MEAT.
