Loss Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Nice, solid match, but nothing really special to put it over the top for mem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Interesting that it's Anjoh offering the handshake at the beginning and Yamazaki being the one to blow it off. Outside of that, nothing particularly memorable or offensive about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Run of the mill type match. Just never seemed to get going. Yamazki has been lacking in some of his recent matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjo Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 September of 1991 was a really poor month. You could hear a pin drop for most of this. Picked up in the final couple of minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Inoffensive but nothing I could remember within an hour and the match didn't really have an overlying theme to make it memorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I liked this a little better than most of you, as Yamazaki overcame two near-knockouts to get the submission win with the ankle lock. A gutty comeback performance, and Yamazaki was still selling the effects of Anjoh's kicks to the midsection as he was leaving the ring afterward. Nothing earth-shattering, but a harmless way to kill fifteen minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I thought it was at the very least a good look at two different strategies. Anjo was going in just fishing for something to work, throwing things out there willy nilly. Sometimes it worked, other times it got him caught. Yamazaki was fighting defensively and waiting for a big opening before he let loose with much. Then he started getting behind in points and had to get more aggressive. Nothing super great or even above good, but I won't say anything bad for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superkix Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Yeah, I liked this a bit more than most. I liked Anjoh's early defense, avoiding the German and keeping Yamazaki on the ground. His leg trip into the Fujiwara armbar was neat. They spend most of the match on the mat before Anjoh starts laying into Yamazaki with knees and kicks for a couple of knockdowns. There's a weird spot where Yamazaki finally hits the German suplex hold and Anjoh looks to counter that with a double wristlock but then rolls off with some delayed selling. The finish was cool too, with Anjoh trying for the rolling kneebar and Yamazaki countering with the neck crank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
