[2018-03-10-NJPW-New Japan Cup 2018] Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Taichi

[ShittyLittleBoots]

The Naito match made Taichi look like a credible Heavyweight contender in New Japan, but this one absolutely established that. Him using all the Kawada signature moves got me FIRED UP & when he hit that Ganso Bomb, this match went from very good to great. Gotta give much credit to Tana, he made Taichi look like a star by giving him much of the match. ****

Did New Japan eliminate count outs from matches? The Young Bucks and Roppongi 3K should've been counted in their match and so should've Tanahashi and Taichi here.

 

This felt pretty spotty and was the Ganso Bomb really a necessity here? Mainly as a throwaway move... Yeah, this is another pass from me.
