Makai Club #1

Enjoyable match. Love Sakaguchi's style because it adds something different to the DDT scene; much needed variety that in a company like DDT. Some awesome striking sequences mixed in with some grappling. Loved it. ***3/4

This was a real great match. Very violent match with some nasty chops and kicks, suplexes. Top quality wrestling. A typical start, nothing really that special than the chops begin and the match turns into a brutal contest. Some vile sounding chops that turned the match into something great. Some awesome performances, Yuu in particular. She was an absolute beast. Laying into Miyu, putting herself about, being real focused on doing nothing but hurting her opponent. Lighting up Miyu's chest (turning it red by the end) with nasty chops which got louder and more and more viscous as she went on. Not letting Miyu rest, doing simple things like pulling her up by her throat, leaning on her neck. It was very compelling as was Miyu's comebacks. Selling everything Yuu did really well but also doing some great counters and striking sequences. The crowd eat it all up and so did I. I didn't expect this level of performance from either women, it was top notch wrestling. ****3/4

Really didn't like this at all. There was ten minutes of just non stop spots where they predictably got up every time (due to the stipulation) and it just got tiresome very quickly. Then there was a jarring 2 minute headlock spot IN A BLOOD FEUD. Then back to the spots where there was no real possibility of the match ending. End that ending. Lol. No substance, no build to the big bumps. Faux hatred. Nothing to this match. Bad ending. BAD.

As good as you would expect. Nomura and H.Suzuki start of with some nice strikes, Hideki covering up, getting overwhelmed by Nomura who gets him to the ground and kicks and stomps at him. Nomra and Abe constantly double team on Hideki to get the advantage and everytime one looks in trouble, the other comes in to lay in some heavy strikes. Pretty fun seeing Hideki on the defensive. Whilst Sekimoto was just waiting on the sidelines, looking to show off his power and explosiveness and eventually getting the win. ***1/2

Even though TripleMania's are typically train wrecks, I'm looking forward to this.

The main event with Balor and Roman was awesome. Balor and Roman showed great chemistry and got the best out of each other. One of the best WWE tv matches of the year

Shame WWE never wanted to push the Crusierweights and Nevile any higher than they did. Neville was one of the best wrestlers in the company when given the chance and deserves much better. I'm sure Neville is happy that he is allowed to do his own thing, wish him luck wherever he wishes to go.

Real good match. Matt Riddle being a massive bully here, showing off his superiority, being cocky at times and very aggressive, his facial expressions in particular. Darby Allen was great here as well, absorbing everything, flopping around everywhere, fighting back; being an awesome sympathetic figure in the match. ***3/4

Incredible match. Miz wanting to prove he can go, both giving and taking the damage was awesome. Miz grinding down using anything he can, punches, DDT's, Bryan's own offence. Very old school feel to the match from the Miz side of the match. Bryan wanting to prove he is above Miz, using submissions with ease, brutalizing Miz with punches of his own and nasty kicks - relentless to the point of Miz's chest starting to turn red. The crowd was disappointing, they didn't seem interested in the match because of the slow pace this match went. If they were into the match more, this could've been better. ****1/4
