[2016-04-09-AJPW] Jun Akiyama vs Super Tiger II

[GOTNW]

This was awesome and worked in a strange hybrid neo King's Road/Battlarts style, you could tell by the early grappling this wasn't going to be the usual All Japan match, I loved how Akiyama pulled Super Tiger out of the ring to transition into offence and he followed it up by just blasting him with knees, they smacked each other around a lot but any time Akiyama had even the smallest opportunity to obliterate Tiger with a knee strike he'd go for it. Tiger fired back with a bunch of kicks and slaps and the sense of constant struggle really added to the match. Incredible out of nowhere KO finish that was sold and presented perfectly. ***1/2

A very short match in K-Hall...featuring 2 cameras! It certainly helped as Jun was blasting Super Tiger with vicious knees inside and out. The only real offense S.T. got was a flurry at the end which knocked Jun out. Too short to be anything special but a fun match.
