This is a fun brawl, Takayama and Nakanishi kick the crap out of each other and both sell it. It's not on the level of the Sasaki matches, but it's damn fun and worth the watch.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if Nakanishi is Octagon then Takayama is Fuerza Guerrera. For whatever reason Takayama is great at wrestling Nakanishi. This winds up being an awesome heavyweight slugfest.

Decent clubberfest. Nakanishi is always straddling the area between solid and dull, so him dominating for so long wasn't exactly thrilling. Also, what was up with all the weird chops and claw holds? There were a few moments that threw me out, such as the referee counting a pin where Takayamas shoulder was blatantly up or the sucky double knee spot they tried. Takayama looked good demolishing Nakanishi on the other hand. This was fun but never seemed to kick it up a notch.
