Loss Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Previously at PWO: Though it didn't quite work out as the participants would have wanted, this is still a decent main event. They utilised a wide range of moves and strategies throughout, demonstrating the depths of their movesets. Joshi matwork isn't often as good as here. It turned into a hard, gruelling battle. Kyoko was really hurting afterwards. Went on too long and never moved into high gear. (IWA Title) Kyoko Inoue © vs Akira Hokuto They don't go balls to the wall or anything but these 2 on cruise controll is still better then most wrestlers in the world at this time. The build is kind of forgettable but once they go into the near fall stretch it turns into a darn good match. The usual you'd exspect from them with all the big move kickouts and stuff finally ending with Kyoko picking up a kind of screwy win as Hokuto kicked out sort of last second. Not too much else to say about this, just a fun match to end the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 Great match. Worked a lot on the ground but things were compelling and it showed that Kyoko could certainly hang in that area. When things intensified, it felt like the right amount of desperation, bombs and speed were thrown out. This was the kind of "heat check' match that top wrestlers in a given year generally have. I don't think this will be the best offering from either even against each other, but it was a reminder that their consistent effort was high level. **** (7.8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
