This show had a lot of rad matches. By this time, Orihara had fully morphed into the singlet wearing punk. Even though this was UWFi vs. WAR and he was the outsider, he was quite sympathetic here taking on ultra-skilled young Sakuraba. Lots of basic but hard fought grappling, gritty suplexes and Orihara getting kicked in the face by Saku. Orihara actually gets the upper hand on Sakuraba - apparently the trick is to just kick him in the balls and follow up with a nasty kick to the back of the head - before uncorking some nasty as fuck piledrivers. Great little match.

[1991-07-03-UWFi-Moving On 3] Kiyoshi Tamura vs Yoji Anjoh

One of the lesser known Tamura classics. Maybe his best pre-RINGS match. Amazing matwork, amazing crowd. ****3/8 -

How about this for a lumpy undercard dream match? This was like some parallel universe Dark Tower shit because both guys are basically each other if their career trajectories happened to be swapped. Nakano works SWS/WAR? He's Kitahara. Kitahara does shoot style and ends up in a Takada promotion? He's Nakano. To be fair, though, I actually didn't expect Kitahara to be as fun in this environment. I mean, it isn't really a shoot style match as opposed to a pro style match with shoot style trappings, but it was a neat enough amalgamation and I liked how Kitahara handled himself. The early mat exchange was nice and solid and once again Nakano ends up with a bloody nose. It must be made of mashed potato. Pretty soon they start smacking each other in the face real hard and my Clone Wars theory is confirmed as Kitahara's nose also gets opened up, though this was at least a result of a nasty looking knee and not just breathing, which is what I assume did for Nakano. Nakano hits a German and Kitahara no sells it like "*I* am the lumpiest here!" and roundhouse kicks Nakano in the head. This was yet another fun six minutes.
