[2016-06-19-K-DOJO] Ayumu Honda vs Ayato Yoshida

[GOTNW]

This one was a little different, as Honda worked more like a Minoru Tanaka here which.....I'd rather he worked like he did in the previous two matches of his I've seen but what can you do. He made for a good Minoru Tanaka. The opening wasn't much-they did the same chain wrestling sequences you've seen a million times but did do a few interesting things during it-like Yoshida using a one armed headlock while Honda held him in a hammerlock and doing the WOS foot-wristlock counter. Honda did a bunch of dropkicks, an armdrag and even a 619. Also a hammerlock backstabber which may sound like "bad indy move 101" but actually looked really cool. His holds looked great again but his stomps were extremely weak. Yoshida looked like a pretty average professional wrestler. **1/2

I wasn't sold on Honda right away but once he honed in on Yoshida's arm, there was some pretty good work. Not a big fan of Honda's spottier stuff, but I thought Yoshida looked good on offense and acknowledged the arm stuff. I liked his dropkick a lot.
