ShittyLittleBoots Posted March 21, 2018 Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 What a goddamn MARVELOUS match. The most consistent wrestler in the world continues his streak of terrific performances in his JUST TAP OUT New Japan Cup tour & SANADA delivers the match of his career so far. The storytelling was top freaking notch - you got SANADA actually owning Zack in the early stages w/ the wrist control. Zack gets more & more frustrated as SANADA continues showing that he is no slouch when it comes to ZSJ's game; eventually though Zack finds a way & starts targeting that arm of SANADA in brutal, nasty, classic Zack Sabre Jr. fashion. SANADA sells it super well. The feel of urgency & physicality is off the charts at that point, SANADA just like that becomes the underdog & tries to fight off Zack's nasty work over him, but in the end, just like Ibushi & Naito, he just TAPPED OUT. ****1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwin Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 I thought this was OK at best and rather heatless for the most part. I wouldn't say SANADA's selling was particularly out of this world great or anything and the botched three count on the tiger suplex was really bad. Skippable, unless you're a massive ZSJ fan.

Childs Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 This was unbelievably boring. Paint by numbers ZSJ against a guy who's yet to interest me once in his entire career. Slow pace, no urgency to anything, dead crowd. Yuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
