MassRayPer posted:The DQ isn't as important as it is that he was brought over and was second fiddle to Shannon Moore and a match that never even happened since TNA didn't have him under contract. The way TNA talked about him and built him up made him seem totally unimportant. My favorite part is how they billed him as THE HIGH FLYING TANAHASHI

MassRayPer posted:He's been out of action for a year and a half, which in Japan means you have a lot of ring rust and will lose because of it. Losing to the champion to an Avalanche version of his finisher is hardly being "buried" and it sets up a money match between Kobashi and Misawa where Misawa drops the belt to Kobashi. Fixed for what's going to actually happen

weekly font posted:This is the difference between sports entertainment and puro. I'd say he held his own for a guy who just battled cancer and was out for over a year and it was far from a burial. Not to mention he was just hit with like 3 or 4 signature moves. What's probably going to happen is Kobashi will win the title at a Budokan show or maybe even a Dome show, then he'll drop it to Morishima.
