No, that one is from the G1 (2004/8/8), even Big Dave gave it ****1/2.

Btw, Takayama suffered a stroke after that match and had to pause for two years. Consuquences suck.

@Candy Colored Clown are you ready for the NJPW/CMLL joint shows starting in Osaka on the 15th?

Tanahashi/Volador Jr./Atlantis vs. Okada/Gran Guerrero/Ultimo Guerrero
Kushida/Captain New Japan/Mascara vs. Taguchi/Naito/Sombra
Tiger Mask/Stigma/Stuka Jr vs. Hashi/Nakamura/Mephisto
Jushin Liger/Mistico vs. Gedo/Polbora
Okumura vs. Angel De Oro
Triton/Cometa vs. Cavernario/Niebla

The main event 6 man tag match has some awesome names. Atlantis and Guerrero should have a bad ass showdown, something to equate to their mask vs. mask match last year (I doubt it will)

Gettin NJPW World in a few weeks. It is a bargain.

Mos def, man, the last three FantasticaManias were tons of light-hearted fun, it's a post-season (or pre-season, whatever you like) and everyone's just having good time out there, especially in Korakuen.

CMLL 81 Aniversario rematches in Korakuen should be awesome:



Prediction: Cavernario's going to get insanely over with them Jap smarks, he'll be brought over for a tour or two later this year, hopefully for the G1 so he and Shibata can smack each other silly.

It's glorious, 3-4 live shows per month for only 8 bucks, not to mention a decent amount of classic stuff.

If you're planning to watch Fantastica Mania 1/13, skip the shit out of the first half and just check the bottom half, but then again, nothing is a must-see. Main event has the legendary TNA team of Tanahashi and Volador reunited.

Next weekend I plan on sitting down finally to watch WrestleKingdom 9. Very excited to hear JR.

Prepare to not be blown away.

He was VERY rusty at the start, warmed up for the final 4 matches. But Striker had to carry a lot of the ground work.
