They spent half the match in YH's trash finisher & then it descended into the usual boring EVIL match interference/cheating/ref bump fest. So done with it.

That's even worse, it was 3 minutes that felt like 10. Torturous.

I'd agree with HM, I thought YOSHI-HASHI looked great, even if his face remains permanently... well, YOSHI-HASHI.

Definitely recommend the show overall if you have 2.5 hours. The opening tag match is probably the worst thing on the card

G1 Climax Night 4 [9/24]
MOTYC
EVIL vs YOSHI-HASHI - I really liked this. We dunk on Y-H a lot, and it's absolutely for good reason, but when the stars align just right, he's capable of putting on a great match as a valiant underdog babyface.

HM
KENTA vs Juice Robinson - Not quite up to what I figured these two would be able to do together but still a very good, high energy match. I can't say I'm doing great in the predictions but somehow I could just tell this would be Juice's big upset win for the year (assuming it's his only one).
Tetsuya Naito vs Zack Sabre Jr. - Was a pretty slow match until the last couple of sequences, which bumped it into HM territory. They got there by the end but I maybe would've trimmed 4 or 5 minutes out of the middle.

So much innovative stuff in amongst the normal (excellent) match structure both guys bring to their usual matches. Their chemistry together is superb.

Edit: On second thoughts I'm upgrading, the postmatch stuff added to an already excellent match and I think I was unfairly pulling it down a bit because of the - by necessity - quieter than normal crowd.

They wrestled well in the WWE environment, they had a really silly gimmick in the middle of the match, but whether I was laughing at them or with them I was entertained. Of course all three guys have had several better ladder matches each, but in the WWE bubble in the year 2020 I thought it was dumb fun that I'd watch again
