I will always like big match Kondo. I'm the type of guy who wanted him to win this, but I've really liked this version of Heel-HEY too. Feels more complete than the Ratels v2 turn and this new finisher is a nice touch.

Namiki's three months into his career and less than five minutes into this match he's been stomped on and dropkicked in the face.

Can you please do the dive Jevon did to the outside? The air he got was insane

Kaito's felt a little sauceless despite the edgier rebrand, but he really benefits from tagging with Inamura.

I gotta give them props for straddling the line between struggling for real and making it look like a struggle. Probably the only way you'll ever convincingly pull off a spot like this.

You can really tell these slaps are nasty even if they don't always look it, because every closeup of Hara past the first exchange you can see his face getting redder and redder.

I'd never seen Kurisu wrestle before this, at least not in a way where I'd made note of it, so when this balding, kinda tubby almost-60 year-old walks into the ring I'm thinking this is one of Fujiwara's old buddies who came to BML to shitpost on the undercard. The first part's true. The second, not so much.

This was basically two and a half years after Sakamoto's debut. Ishikawa doesn't exactly go easy on him, but that's why we love Ishikawa.

And just like Illusion 1, this show also features some western wrestlers at the top of the midcard. This time they're not put against old vets, they just face off against each other in a very their-usual style. Again, in the middle of a shoot style show. For whatever reason.

Huge pop for this, but also kind of the biggest pop of the match. These guys don't really wrestle the style most people in the crowd came to see, and you can tell. Which is a shame, it's a fun match.

loved Petey Williams back in the day. Definitely my favorite X-Division guy. Thought he was so underutilized. His Maple Leaf Muscle gimmick was dimes.

I know basically nothing about the guy aside from the obvious, but he matches up great with AJ and he's one of my favorite western wrestlers ever, especially of his era, so I'm not complaining.
