Loss Posted January 3, 2013 Author Report Posted January 3, 2013 The match didn't quite build to the climax I hoped it would, but it was a good teaser. I'd like to see these guys in a 25-minute match with a clear winner and loser. Quote
PeteF3 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 This had some good stuff that made me primed to see another match between the two--despite, or even because of, Hashimoto's rather cheap victory. Somehow this worked for me a lot more than the non-pinfall in the SWS match. Seeing Hash and Vader whale away on each other sounds like something I could watch all day. Quote
soup23 Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 Good slugfest although below the Vader/Choshu match. A good sequence in the middle would have made this match great. Quote
Kevin Ridge Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 Hash looking slim. I feel like getting our knees up to block a Vader splash still would hurt the hell out for you. I don’t think anybody has hit a splash/clothesline attack when an opponent has been up against the ring post. Boo, Vader gets counted out. That was cheap. Quote
garretta Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 Hashimoto starts fast, including a bodyslam, and ends fast. The rest of this is all Vader. I don't think this finish was all that cheap, considering the pounding Hash took. I clearly got the sense that he was lucky, but he was also smart enough to avoid an obviously telegraphed avalanche against the post. They sure weren't going to have Vader beaten clean, so if they wanted a victory for his opponent to build a feud, it was either this or some kind of DQ. I was surprised that Hash got to slam Vader so early in the match. Most promotions would have saved a spot like that for closer to the end, when it would have brought down the house. Quote
drew wardlaw Posted May 21, 2016 Report Posted May 21, 2016 This felt like it was the first step in a longer feud, and by reading the comments I'm led to believe that we'll get another match next year, which is great. Definitely felt like they held back for this one, but it was still good. Quote
dawho5 Posted April 16, 2017 Report Posted April 16, 2017 Vader and Hash beating the Hell out of each other can't be bad. It just wasn't overly good, but seems like there is more to come. Quote
