[2000-10-08-Michinoku Pro] CIMA & Sumo Fuji & Yoshikazu Taru vs Genki Horiguchi & Dragon Kid & Gran Hamada

Crazy Max showing up and having their showcase match on the big promotional shows is pretty endearing. This was a par the course six man for them with the exception that Genki keeps developing and now know how to integrates his surfer persona into his matches better to make them work. Dragon Kid looked a step off from previous matches we have seen him in but still hit some gorgeous highspots. This didn’t hit the top end Crazy Max matches we have seen in the year, but it was very enjoyable while it lasted. ***1/2 (7)

Yeah, this was a pretty good showcase match with Hamada as the alternate. It was a bit slower paced due to Hamada being involved, but it got very good near the finishing stretch as they got the crowd more involved in their work. Hamada wasn't a bad alternate either as he did just fine, although I would've liked seeing what some more extensive Hamada vs. Fuji exchanges would have been liked. Either way, this was a pretty good match.
