Jetlag Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 This is just an excellent match which had both great wrestling and nice boiling hatred surges. You know it's gonna be good when a basic headscissor is reversed into a stretch muffler in the early going. The grappling was trippy and wonderful, like the greatest Negro Navarro vs. Black Terry match we never saw, and the match tells a nice story: the first two falls end in flash pins, setting up a cautious yet intense final round. Szakacs is like the most graceful wrestler ever, and Fallon looked pretty great too, totally up there as a maestro. He just went after Szakacs like a pitbull. However Fallon played a subtle and then not so subtle heel, adding more piss and vinegar to the bout, but they always went back to the mat. Szakacs uses a throat chop as finisher that KO's his opponent, and they do some really cool, unique stuff around Szakac trying to set it up and Fallon blocking it. The last round with Szakac uppercutting Fallon right in the jaw and then chopping him in the face was especially tense. Great unique match despite it being another match that feels like a teaser.

Control21 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Yeah, this was great. I was going to go ****3/4 but I felt like a draw was the least ideal finish. Still, this was very enjoyable and a classic matchup between a Wigan-trained catch wrestler and someone from a more continental background. Tibor past his prime is still a great wrestler, and the tactical nuances in this match kept me engaged throughout. Fallon doing some heel-ish stuff but not being over the top with it added a good dynamic match. One of the better WoS/JP matches I've seen. ****1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
