[2018-04-21-AJPW-Champion Carnival] Naomichi Marufuji vs Suwama

[ShittyLittleBoots]

A very good match. Loved Marufuji showcasing those technical skills of his in the beginning & the Headlock stuff was lovely. I think by the end the match dragged a bit w/ those nearfalls & all, but it didn't hurt it too much, because it was still indeed a very good one. ***1/2

[Boss Rock]

There were a few slow spots in the middle and the crowd had to be woken up a bit, but the finishing stretch was absolute fire. Both guys just absolutely unloading on each other with their heaviest strikes. Marufuji looked like he legit kicked Suwama in the jaw 3-4 times. A really entertaining bombfest with loads of urgency in the latter half.
