[1998-07-24-AJPW-Summer Action Series] Tamon Honda vs Takeshi Morishima

[cactus]

With his black tights and boots and having a similar brawling powerhouse style, Baby Morishima reminded me of Jumbo Tsuruta. Morishima works on snug headlock on Honda and doesn't let it go even after getting slammed. He's still no match for Honda, who is able to win after locking on a tight STF. This was a solid match to showcase Morishima against an established wrestler and for Honda to show of his mat skills. Morishima still needs to find his own gimmick and style, but has a lot more promise here than say, Kanemaru, Inoue and Shiga.
