[2019-11-21-AJPW-Real World Tag League] Daisuke Sekimoto & The Bodyguard vs NEXTREAM (Kento Miyahara & Yuma Aoyagi)

[Jmare007]

Holy shit was not expecting this match to be this good. It follows a more southern tag formula, with Kento getting isolated and leaving Aoyagi by himself to survive the beating the dudes, specially BODYGAH, have in store for him. They are able to keep things interesting for the first 15 minutes of the match, it's nothing out of the ordinary but there's enough to keep your attention. Aoyagi is a good face in peril but his offense is so weak that his hope spots don't have as much "hope" as they should, imo. Still, the kid takes the beating like a man and his comeback lead to a nice hot tag by Miyahara. Then we get the last 7 minutes which were fucking GREAT and truly elevated the match to another level. In the end it's Sekimoto and Aoyagi slugging it out and really feels like the kid turns the corner as a performer: fire, a little better strikes and some impressive moves. Great nearfalls and even though Korakuen was sadly half empty, the crowd was lit for the home stretch. This match won me over like a motherfucker, definitely check it out
