KUSH vs Ishii is a match that you just know could easily be a MOTYC, but unfortunately this didn't reach the levels I was hoping for. There were some very obvious chemistry issues that led to quite a lot of sloppy spots. Maybe KUSH was just too excited to be working with a heavyweight that it messed up his rhythm. The atmosphere definitely took a hit because of the mixed chemistry. In between all the negatives though, there were some really great sequences that showed what these two can do. I am not a fan of the junior champ being pinned clean literally in his first match as champ though, ****.
