TJPW Stand Proud June 26th MOTYC Miyu Yamashita (c) vs Sakisama - Princess of Princess Championship These are two of the best in the promotion, they both know their characters inside and out, and they both utilise heavily kick based offence which I love. Add in their respective partners in the corners yelling their hearts out and the whole thing was awesome HM Arisu Endo vs Rika Tatsumi vs Kamiyu - Bunch of entertaining tomfoolery inherent in the triple threat format. I still believe in Endo, she's going to get that big win any day now Moka Miyamoto and Shoko Nakajima vs Yuki Arai and Miu Watanabe - Arai continues to improve, Miu remains strong, Shoko remains BIG, and Moka has the Eye of the goddamn Tiger

HM 26th June All Japan Champions Night Purple Haze (Izanagi, Shigehiro Irie, UTAMARO & Zeus) vs Stronghearts (CIMA, El Lindaman, Issei Onitsuka & T-Hawk) Just a real nice & good multiman tag match despite there being no real stakes to it.

AJPW Champions Night June 26th HM Shuji Ishikawa (c) vs Yuko Miyamoto - GAORA TV Championship - Moved at a great clip, only ran for maybe 12 minutes felt barely half that for me. Ishikawa has a few more great matches in him yet Koji Iwamoto (c) vs Francesco Akira - Jr Heavyweight Championship - I went in thinking this was a pretty foregone conclusion, but as the match went on that doubt started to form, what if Akira could pull it off? Real tense last few minutes. Jake Lee vs Yuma Aoyagi vs Kento Miyahara - Triple Crown - There was some amazing action in this, but the start-stop nature of the stipulation really took it down a notch for me. Would probably rate it higher if I could skip all the downtime, but as a live match it suffered.

I'm confused by the nominations, were there three separate title matches or one Triple threat with multiple falls?

Jerusalem posted:I'm confused by the nominations, were there three separate title matches or one Triple threat with multiple falls? It was a series of singles matches, the first person to win two falls wins the title. For example it was Kento vs Aoyagi, the winner faces Jake Lee, the winner of that faces the loser of the first match, repeat. The reason I wrote it the way I did was to not spoil how many falls made up the contest.

Jerusalem posted:I'm confused by the nominations, were there three separate title matches or one Triple threat with multiple falls? They had entrances and music played for the victor between matches so it's really difficult to say whether it should be considered separate matches or a single gauntlet match. It's officially called a tomoe and it's a series of singles matches until someone wins two in a row.

Can't believe I forgot to nominate this WMOTYC 26th June All Japan Champions Night Yoshitatsu vs Yosuke Nishijima Holy poo poo this was torture. Chapter 3 in the Yoshitatsu: Shoot Fighter story, this time he tries to recreate Ali vs Inoki & punches out his own cornerman. Which might make it sound more interesting than it actually was. Yoshitatsu is bad at shootfighting. Wardlow vs Hagar was better than this.

NOAH Cage War June 26th MOTYC Katsuhiko Nakajima vs Masa Kitamiya - Hair vs Hair Cage Match - These two loving lunatics gave everything to make NOAH's first ever cage match a memorable one. Now please don't do it again Katsu playing with the camera drone to get great shots was also real cool HM M's Alliance (Naomichi Marufuji and Masaaki Mochizuki) vs Kaito Kiyomiya and Yoshiki Inamura - Four real talented dudes have a real entertaining tag match. Not a ton of stakes, outside of implications from possible future challengers for Marufuji, but fun all the same Jr Battle Royal - Just pure chaos. 10 planned entrants became 15, teams entered together, guys came in when they felt like it, a giant brawl on the outside with all the eliminated competitors, all the usual NOAH Jr bullshit I crave. And neither of the final two were on the official entrants list

DDT Shiro no Yu Presents Shiro no Yu Street Wrestling MOTYC Shinya Aoki (c) vs Chris Brookes vs Shunma Katsumata vs Yukio Naya - Ironman Heavymetalweight Title - Just hook this poo poo into my veins. Much as I love grapplefucking and hard strikes and brutal cagematches and engaging stories (the pain from Tana/Jay is still real ), I also love four idiots rampaging through a sauna/onsen whilst fighting for a title. Very little psychology here as the boys meandered from spot to spot, but I was absolutely delighted by the insanity. I loved the four way 10 count spot where they were all sitting in chairs just exhausted. I loved bodies being thrown into pools already occupied by naked men getting their soak on. I loved Shunma hitting the Superfly splash into a pool, and then going for the cover...while Chris Brookes was still floating in the water with his shoulder nowhere near any hard surface. I loved that by the end everyone was just exhausted and waterlogged. But above all that, I love that the champion going into this was MMA legend Shinya Aoki who took a break from training for his 58th career fight to dick about at a hot spring with the boys for half an hour, simply because he loves doing silly poo poo like this. DDT has some of the best wrestling on the planet, but those same guys do some of the most absurd poo poo and I love them for it SG Bamboo fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Jun 26, 2021 |

HM: Kaito Kiyomiya & Yoshiki Inamura vs M's Alliance (Masaaki Mochizuki & Naomichi Marufuji) - Noah CAGE WAR June 26 A really good fun kinetic tag match that pit the old guard against the young blood. Inamura and Kiyomiya in particular are a superb and energetic tag team. There's a couple of things I would change about the match that stopped it being a MOTYC candidate namely the ending, Feels like Noah are pumping the brakes on Inamura and Kiyomiya when they need to be building them up but I had fun watching wrestling with this match.

Dragon Gate at Kobe Sambo Hall 6/26 HM: Masaaki Mochizuki vs FUNKY “JACKY” KAMEI Started out slow as a nothing match but built surprisngly well and the crowd was super into it by the end. HM: High-End (Dragon Kid, Keisuke Okuda, & Ben-K) vs. Natural Vibes (Susumu Yokosuka, Genki Horiguchi, & King Shimizu) vs R.E.D. (Eita, Kaito Ishida, & KAZMA SAKAMOTO) Fun match held back by nobody other than Shimizu going too hard for a match being used primarily to set up other matchs. Still good though and the final stretch was excellent.

HM: Hangman Adam Page vs. Powerhouse Hobbs - AEW Dynamite 6/26 Really hot opener, Page looked great and Hobbs has a great mix of selling and recovery to play up his status as a, of course, powerhouse. MOTYC: Kenny Omega (C) vs. Jungle Boy for the AEW World Championship - AEW Dynamite 6/26 Superb, the finish in particular where Kenny did a casual cover and Jungle Boy kicked out, so Kenny hit the One Winged Angel and made sure to hook the leg was just fantastic in its simplicity.

With this latest successful MOTYC nomination, AEW (40) now has twice the nominations of New Japan (20), which in turn has twice the nominations of third place TJPW (10). WWE currently has 1 (2 if you count NXT's 1 with it). Edit: The math works out to: AEW has 1.6 MOTYCs a week. New Japan has 0.8 MOTYCs a week. TJPW has 0.4 MOTYCs a week. WWE has 0.08 MOTYCs a week. By that same (bad) math, WWE should expect to get their next MOTYC sometime in the next 6.25 years. Jerusalem fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Jun 27, 2021 |
