Tetsuya Izuchi vs Shinya Aoki

Takanori Ito vs Dan Tamura

Seichi Ikemoto vs Hideki Sekine
Soma Watanabe vs Hikaru Sato

These shows are such a treat, G-Pro can be hit or miss for me but the UWF shows are consistently entertaining, only thing I didn't like was Minoru Tanaka vs Yu Iizuka being so short

Dragongate at Korakuen Hall, 3/2

HM: Don Fujii vs. Daiki Yanagiuchi
The Dragongate dojo can't be stopped. Great debut and entry to the "crusty old man beats up rookie" genre.

MOTYC: Rey de Parejas 2023 Finals - Yuki Yoshioka & Madoka Kikuta vs. Susumu Mochizuki & Yasushi Kanda
Tag team wrestling at its finest.

2nd both of these. Don Fujii is so natural in the "vet beats up rookie" stakes, & Yanagiuchi seems a natural underdog. The finals were great. Just fantastic DG tag wrestling. Kanda did some insane spots considering he's Yasushi Kanda (I would hardly be shocked if this is the last great performance of his career), Susumu is Susumu, a fantastically consistent wrestler, & D'courage are just a great team.

That said, I noticed in his review Mike Spears (of this forum & also the Open The Voice Gate podcast) said "I don’t think that building has seen a tag match THAT good since COVID" & I'd argue it's not even the best tag match at Korakuen this year, what with Miyakento no Takuya vs Aoyagi & Nomura from 22/1 in All Japan my Match of the Year to date. Also there was an Ice Ribbon tag last year with Hoshi & Makoto vs Muscle Venus & that's right up there too. And SEAdLINNNG had some tremendous tag team wrestling during the pandemic. But I'm splitting hairs, that it's even being talked about in that company goes to show this match is absolutely essential viewing.

Watch it, please
