AJPW

Watched "The Patriot" matches because I like a gimmick and it's almost 4th of July in the States... seemed like a good one..plus I have been meaning to watch more midcard AJPW 90's. Most/all of these are joined in progress. I LIKED them all but maybe you'll see one here that looks more interesting than others.

vs Kenta Kobashi (06/03/92): An offensive move display from both. Good near falls.

w/ Kobashi vs Dr. Death & Terry Gordy (09/05/92): Damn! This was really good! Extended beat down of Kobashi then makes the hot tag to Patriot. Then its just big moves and excitement. I understand how things get lost in the mix in 90's All Japan but, this one gets my pick as the one to check out. 11-12 minutes. It's from 09/20/92 TV btw.

w/ Eagle vs Kobashi & Kikuchi (02/25/93): Rough at times but a big move/tag move fest. 

w/ the Eagle vs Dr. Death & Terry Gordy (05/14/93): Last 4 minutes but oh so good!

w/ Eagle vs Stan Hansen & Bobby Duncum Jr. (09/02/95): Good fun, enjoyed watching Patriot knocking Stan & Bobby over 😃

Classic UK wrestling
•Dalibar Singh vs Caswell Martin: Not sure on the date but seems later in the 80's based on the graphics on screen as well as a bit more American style moves (by my estimate). Also this is edited to pretty much just show the falls. Still very athletic, entertaining wrestling. Singh's European upper cuts were nasty. LIKED IT

CMLL
•Corazon de Leon vs Bestia Salvaje vs Dandy vs Felino vs Negro Casas vs Ultimo Dragon (03/03/95): The way this match was talked about in the '95 Year book/Match Discussion you'd think people were actively shitting their pants during the contest. Maybe it's with those low expectations that I really enjoyed this match. Bestia & Felino get eliminated too soon but then we have a essentially a tag match. Except Leon/Jericho doesn't come in until the very end. Everything prior is very, very good stuff. Jericho is no luchadore though so this resembles more typical junior fare but let's not say Casas & Dandy can't adapt - they can. So this continues to be very good just in a little different way. I LIKED IT. Can't comment on the booking or anything but, it's a fun match that moves along well, tells a simple story and has good action throughout. 

FMW
•Hisakatsu Oya vs Hayabusa (06/27/95): Having watched FMW, this match was a step in the evolution of FMW wrestling. With Onita's (temporary) retirement, the promotion could move a tad away from the slice & dice and more towards the wrestling. This feels like a big move towards that and while they would improve upon it, I still really LIKED this match. Probably didn't need to be as long as it was but, since you're probably watching it online feel free to speed it up during the slower parts 🙂

NJPW
•Antonio Inoki vs Tatsumi Fujinami (08/19/82): Roughly 15 minutes of grappling. If you want to see technical wrestling, this is your ticket. A technical duel between master & student.  Definitely recommend this one! LOVED IT

•Kengo Kimura & Tatsumi Fujinami vs Hiroshi Hase & Iizuka (06/27/89): Emphasis on technical wrestling, Iizuka & Kimura grappling was a highlight. LIKED IT

•Vader vs Riki Choshu (06/27/89): Vader gets his mask ripped and they are looking to destroy one another! THIS is what you want with these two. Awesome ending too. LOVED THIS! 

•Randy Savage vs Jushin Liger (07/17/96): Damn! Randy took a bunch of hurty Liger offense! I doubt any other older WCW guy would have worked that way with Liger. Let's hear it for Macho Man! Fun match - LIKED IT

•Fujinami, Koshinaka & A. Nogami vs Chono, Tenzan & H. Saito (07/17/96): That is how you do a 6 man match! What a finishing run there! They built the match right up to it, popped the crowd and ended it. LOVED THIS!

SWS
•Ultimo Dragon vs Jerry Estrada (12/12/91): This was a lot of fun. Estrada made Ultimo Dragon look great. It had spots he was doing in Hamada's UWF/FULL but they did more. RECOMMENDED

UWA
•Can Am Express (Furnas & Kroffat/LaFon) vs Los Cowboys (Silver King & El Texano) (07/04/92): 2/3 falls but that's the only lucha libre part about this. The match was much more junior/Puro oriented. It was rough around the edges but would have been right at home in W*ING or other indie. HIGH RECOMMENDATION for fans of either team. Great stuff, glad I saw it!
