This is a wrestling board, yet all I see is whining and complaining and joshi. Post matches you like. Here's the WarGames match from the 1992 WrestleWarhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUBpRjHZ7ewHell here's the whole show if that's what you want. This was the best Wargames style match ever had.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=831ocWCFNEM

QRD on this match (because I swear I think this thread is based af and am not just posting joshi shit to derail it): this was a cross promotional match, where the wrestlers in question were representing two very different companies. The wrestlers shoot did not like each other or each others' styles and had every incentive to make each other look bad. The blend between shoot and work makes the match worth watching, even if you don't like women's wrestling (Akira Hokuto, btw, would later become Women's Champion for a time in WCW).Akira Hokuto vs Shinobu Kandorihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjD2-3zQoeQThey did a rematch as well:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXTvuuHg43A

>>21476127>The hard WWE network cut that chopped out the final spotDid they have an alternate angle or did they actually just cut from Corino being placed on a table to Tajiri pinning him?
>Volk Han vs Kiyoshi Tamura (RINGS 1997/09/26)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gE2zoKmyytUWas originally going to post a Joshi bout but we have a few already so I'll hold off for a bit.
>>21476249Yeah, I posted those but I don't want to overdo it either because most people aren't into that. Still, there are some excellent matches.

>>21476284People will shit on you for posting Omega vs Danielson but it was literally like the first and last actually classic AEW match imho.
>>21476293Let them. I hope they post matches they think are good to own me

>>21476177This is legit one of the best matches ever.
It's hard to watch this because both guys have fallen off so hard, but for anyone who never watched '10s NJPW but wondered why people were so into it, you really can't do better than this match.Tetsuya Naito vs Kenny Omega G1 Finalhttps://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9l95xg

One of my favorite matches of the past ten years. Don't let the wrestlers themselves dissuade you from watching. It starts off slow then builds into a race against time, with a lot of emphasis on psychology where one worker is working her opponent's arm while the other is work a leg.If you ever seriously wonder why anyone who likes actual wrestling watches modern joshi, this is the best explanation. As a bonus, the match has English commentary.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CvvdjXWPvY

>>21476645Why can't modern wrestlers generate this level of kino?
>>21476685>Level of Rock vs HoganI dunno, why can't modern NBA teams recreate Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jobber?
>>21476537I don't think this is an eleven out of ten match but it's pretty good for modern wrestling. You've overstated how much the leg comes into the match though. Lot of minor issues but I liked it, gets the point across well.
>>21476249I can't get enough RINGS footage. It's the best
>>21476778Oh yeah, I don't disagree that Meltzer definitely overrated it. Still, it's better than anyone who has a certain preconception of modern joshi would ever expect.

>Bret "Hitman" Hart vs "Stone Cold" Steve Austin (Survivor Series 1996)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hTB_xjeeOAI know most people prefer the Wrestlemania 13 Submission match, but this one is my favorite of the era. It really is the final goodbye to the old school WWF main event style
>>21476778>>21476778Should add that the rematch was quite good as well.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2oUeR46TJcLike I said, none of this is necessarily the *best* wrestling of the past 10 years. But it was very watchable, especially given how easy it was to emotionally invest in a lot of the joshis. Sadly, it's been a bit downhill since last year because it feels like a lot of the roster is just going through the motions now.
>>21476587Is Hana's mom a shoot badass or a work badass? Also, why is she so big on cultural appropriation?
>>21476870A lot of the joshis of that generation were shoot badasses. Same as the generations that came before them. The idol-heavy joshi we know today kinda started springing to the forefront as Stardom started gaining prominence, especially as it started toning things down after The Yasukawa/Yoshiko Ghastly Match.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QMizxVMvCI
>>21476236i bought the dvd release when it came out, the ending was fucky on that, years later i have a downloaded copy with the complete finish in my library.

>mankind vs undertaker, boiler room brawl https://youtu.be/DjfVeV5tPB4I love that they wheeled out The substitute teacher TVs for the arena because they weren't sure how to do this yet
>>21476115thanks op, never seen this match. it was brutal, wow. wasn't a huge fan of the ending. but windham, anderson, and austin really stood out in it. they all seemed liked they were fucking each other up in there.i don't hate modern wrestling matches. but the wwe war games, even if with the movez and "more athletic" wrestlers of the modern day, fall much flatter and everything seems softer. and i'd say that regardless of blood.another thing i liked is that the ring got crowded like it would in royal rumble, but it never felt like everyone else was letting nothing happen while two guys ran spots in the middle. the wresstle war match was more chaotic and engaging.
I like these thread, they never seem to last long.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XTGJwi-WPKU&pp=ygUWVGVycnkgRnVuayB2cyBIYXlhYnVzYQ%3D%3D
>>21476858I liked the rematch better but it builds off the first title match so they're really both worth watching.
GAORA just put up PAC & Prince Devitt vs. Genki Horiguchi & Ryo Saito from 2011https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AA9w6Z_p7eU
>>21480107Very true. That was actually the first Stardom show I ever watched and I hadn't seen the first match (though I heard it was good), so when I saw it I was quite impressed (I mean, I kept watching the promotion) but wasn't as invested as I probably otherwise would have been.
Not everyone's cup of tea but if you like stiff strikefests this one is pretty hard to beat, at least as far as matches in recent memory go.Katsuhiko Nakajima vs KENOH https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXvzh9y3oz8
