Match: Jigsaw & the Shard vs Mike Quackenbush & Green Ant vs
The Batiri (Kodama & Kobald) vs FIST (Icarus & Sugar Dunkerton),
4 way elimination tag. From Just Shadows in the fog.
Promotion: Chikara
Rating: 3.5
Comment: If there is one thing that Chikara knows how to do it is getting a crowd going.
This was the opening match of Just shadows in the fog and the crowd enjoyed it.
This match went into it with the underlying feud of Quackenbush vs the Shard and
his former tag team partner Jigsaw, but we also saw the start of Icarus' face turn keeping on going.
The match was of good quality, none of the wrestlers in it are bad workers though I do not feel Kodama
or Kobald personally. One big holy shit spot in this match. I'm evening it out to a 3.5 out of 5.
Match: Brian Cage vs Anthony Nese. PWG ten
Promotion: PWG
Rating: 3.5
Comment: This was a good match, nothing extraordinary, but good and certainly not bad.
Cage packs on more and more muscle every time he steps into a PWG ring (No way is he all natural) and it is obvious
in his ring work, his cardio isn't what it used to be and he is not as agile as before. And sadly he hasn't learnt
to work as proper big man just yet. Nese is one of my favs though and may be taking the spot
Cage once held as the chiseled guy doing flips.
It started out with some chain wrestling and then went into displays of strength
and power. The last half is the best half of the match. 3.5 out of 5.
Match: Johnny Gargano & Chuck Taylor vs Paul London & Brian Kendrick. PWG Ten
Promotion: PWG
Rating: 4
Comment: Gargano and Taylor are two of my favorite workers, and any opportunity to see them team is great. This match got this is awesome chants 1 minute in due to the comedy but soon went into ring work. As a note: Chuck Taylor's hair is gorgeous. This was a fun tag match between four junior heavyweights. Nice mix of ring work and comedy (With Taylor and London, comedy is mandatory). It had the right pacing and built up well. 4 out of 5 for me.

Match: The Young Bucks Vs Mike Quackenbush and Jigsaw. King Of Trios 2010
Promotion: CHIKARA
Rating: 4
Comment: Really enjoyed it, Had some lovely chain at the start which looked very crisp and clean, Not any mess up. Jigsaw hit a really good pin variation which I think is worth mentioning, Mike did very well in his initial tag in and some nice high flying spots and moves there, Jigsaw took the heat which was a bit too long but not any real issue, Mike's hot tag was very well done. Jigsaw really did need more offence in this match he looked really weak. I loved the spots near the end but the ending was kind of a let down after the spots prior to it.

I'm pretty sure I even acknowledged that this concept was something I saw on another forum in the OP.
Also plenty of threads are of my own design/mind as well. But I will not deny that if I see a topic on another forum that I find interesting/fun that isn't discussed here I will bring it to us. I also tend to acknowledge when I do that as well.

Match: Nigel McGuinness vs Kenta for the Ring of Honor Wold Championship
Promotion: Ring of Honor
Rating: 4/5
Comments: I thought it was a very exciting match. Back and forth match, with Nigel selling the injury very well. It was great to see him go at it, selling the adrenaline rush after dropping Kenta on the floor. I marked out when I saw him use Kenta's own GTS on him as well. It got be excited to watch these two tremendous workers go at it, only reason it didn't get the full 5 rating was because I would have preferred to see Nigel at full health. Nontheless, it's a great match to watch, good work to both of them for putting on such an exciting match.

Match: Davy Richards vs Masa Takanashi
Promotion: Pro Wrestling SEM
Rating: 3/5
Comment: It was a nice little match. Wasn't a great or must see match, but it did have a bit of excitement when Masa would take control. His offense was mostly kicks, and chops then knocking down Davey and going for the quick pin to try to win. When Davey took control he was a complete monster until Masa found ways to get his offense in. It was a fun match to watch since it wasn't dragged out to long.

Match: Davey Richards vs Kota Ibushi
Promotion: NJPW
Rating: 3.7/5
Comment: A nice, neat enjoyable match here showcasing the abilities from both men. Every move was executed near perfectly and the match included some incredible spots especially the ending where Ibushi countered a top rope powerbomb into a hurracanrana mid air. A slight botch before that incredible spot is what brings the rating down a little, but nonetheless, great match!

Match: Samoa Joe vs. Kenta Kobashi
Promotion: ROH
Rating: 4.8/5
Comment: Boy oh boy was this a nearly perfect match. Performing in front of a hot Philly ROH crowd, these two great wrestlers had to live up to the expectations and boy they did. A incredibly solid 25-30 minute match that consisted of a LOT of chops, different variations of suplexes, stiff elbows and much more that made this match a insanely great one. The ending sequence was beautiful and the crowd made this match much better. Must watch!
