[2002-01-04-NJPW-Wrestling World 2002] Hiroshi Hase & Keiji Mutoh vs Tatsumi Fujinami & Osamu Nishimura

[Jetlag]

I wish MUGA had been a full time promotion at this time.  This was mostly on the mat, which is where everyone here looks good. This was certainly a good use of Hase whose amateur style stuff still looks very powerful. He and Nishimura with his awesome briding where the standouts here early on. Mutoh just did his usual spiel for the finish, altough Fujinami hitting a flying knee on him was really fun and Nishimuras selling made it look better than usual.

This was a fun maestros style match. I definitely agree that Japan could have done with a full-time MUGA promotion at this stage.

Fun, casual grapplefuck between four men who look like they're coming back from a shvitz.
