The problem with the Skull End, Money Clip, and Butterfly Lock is they're all "try and make the guy pass out" sleeper style submissions, and those are hard to make compelling. When Tanahashi puts on the Cloverleaf or Zack does one of his thousand and five holds they actually tap people out because they're "oh god this loving hurts please stop i can't handle it aaaaAAAA" moves. Suzuki's sleeper he very rarely keeps on for more than 10 seconds, so he doesn't have the same problem as those other 3 moves.

oh hey knife pervert's here

Except when Suzuki goes against Naito. The he had him in the leg lock for 15 minutes.

Switchblade showed up in the middle of Ibushi talking to the press, grabbed a chair and sat down, reminded Ibushi that he beat him and insisted that when Ibushi gets the briefcase, he wants him to put it up against him in a match. Ibushi told him anytime.

Kota was doing his postmatch promo, someone started clapping very loudly and smugly and it was indeed the detested Clap Pervert. He wanted a chair but no one gave him one. He took the one that had Ibushi’s G1 winner gift bags on it. He sat down, Kota gave him a beer. They toasted and Jay said he’s gonna take the briefcase. Kota rudely tried to throw beer on the nice young man.

I would like to congratulate NJPW for finally putting the Zimas in a container of ice.

Two years ago they had to celebrate with warm Miller Genuine Drafts, last year it was warm Zimas.

Kind of funny Jay beat Ibushi at WK and was supposed to be next in line for a title shot but Kenta and Evil have been the ones to get the shots before him, and now he has to try to beat Ibushi again for one.

So, White really should beat the poo poo out of EVIL.

Taichi and Ibushi will bond over their shared hobby of kicking Jay White real hard and then losing to him, and Ibushi will help Taichi form Taichi-Gun by accident.

The best part of Ospreay feuding with Okada is not having to watch Ospreay nor the Money Clip.

yeah one thing that i think wrestling submissions really lack that does apply in real fights is the application of an instant submission, like a full stretched cross-armbar or an americana.

Money Clip is fine because Okada does stuff like do a backbreaker or let it go to nail a short Rainmaker, then reapply it.
Butterfly Lock is fine because Yoshi does stuff like transition into a wristlock or a sleeper.

What is this emotion called "criminal negligence"?
I love that Suzuki only holds the sleeper on long enough to daze his opponent victim, so they won't fight out of the GSP. It's very clever.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think in Lucha if you get someone in a submission it's usually an instant tap out.
