HM - Kenny Omega vs Tomohiro Ishii - NJPW Destruction in Hiroshima, 09-15-2018

Suffered from the crowd being very badly mic'd and not being on the level of their G1 match, but still very much worth watching.

You could still hear the crowd very well and they were really into that match. Not the best mic job but it didn't detract for me.

Third, the crowd for their G1 match was the one I thought was a bit muted, I could hear them fine here.

Thirded. It wasn't quite as knockout amazing as I might have hoped for but it was still a great match. I did not get the feeling the crowd was flat for it at all.

I was setting my (in hindsight, absurd) expectations to Okada/Shibata levels of drama, maybe if you put that match in front of Sumo Hall or Budokan instead of Hiroshima...

Hell yeah, that bit where Ishii went to run the ropes, but turned around in midring to ambush Kenny because he knew Kenny was trying to get the drop on him was perfect.

Agreeing with both of these.

And the MOTYC nod I gave for Rollins/Ambrose vs. Ziggler/McIntyre was in large part to it being one of - if not the - best main-roster matches this year.
