[2023-05-03-Marvelous-7th Anniversary] Chikayo Nagashima vs Mio Momono

[Kadaveri]

This was brilliant. Chikayo's title reign was probably never meant to happen but she has really ran with the opportunity that fell into her lap this year and has topped it off with one of the best singles matches of her career. I am so glad she just reneged on that retirement announcement a couple of years ago as she clearly had more to give. But Mio Momono is one of my favourite wrestlers of the last 5 years. I hope nobody ever tells her that wrestling isn't real. There's a great narrative throughout of the match of Mio trying to get the win with the Cheeky Bomb but Chikayo knows every trick in the book to avoid it.
