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.

Every good match has the part that makes you lean forward. The drone buzzing at all times gave this a constant anxiety and provided a contrast to the sounds of various strikes.

Yuka Sakazaki vs Nodoka Tenma vs Haruna Neko
- TJPW do some goddamn hilarious triple threat matches. Yuka is such a massive bully to poor Tenma, hopefully her month in America will temper her attitude so she stops being so rude. Not as pure comedy as the one I nominated for MOTYC a fortnight ago but still very very entertaining

- 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

When I was a teenager I was mostly into buying CDs and listening to the same CDs. Suzu Suzuki is clearly taking blood thinners before matches and stabbing fat guys with forks and being stabbed by other forks and just being drenched in her own blood. She's loving bonkers and it rules.

This was violent and nasty but also had some real enjoyable comedy moments and this is the most i've enjoyed a Lil' Abby match in some time
