Match: BXB Hulk vs Yamato
Promotion: Dragon Gate
Rating: 3.9
Comment: This match can in one word be described as stiff. Hulk and Yamato are two of Dragon Gate's best wrestlers and almost always put on a show. This match was filled with stiff kicks and punches and was basically two rivals from opposing teams trying to beat the snot out of each other. The crowd was very much like a tennis crowd in this one, following every move and marking like fuck at the kick outs and spots. Hulk laying Yamato out with kicks and then almost deadlifting him up for his finisher looked really nice for a finish. And Yamato's continued selling only helped it.

Match: Ricochet vs Dragon Kid. Kobe world 2012
Promotion: Dragon Gate
Rating: 4
Comment: This was a really fun high flyer match. Dragon Kid when not injured is really good and Ricochet is possibly the best flyer today not signed to the E. This was in front of a hot Kobe crowd which made it even better. Ricochet busted out everything he had to try and take out Kid but it just wasn't enough to beat the veteran. Good selling, great flying and good mat work. Shoulda been longer though.

Match: Inner City Machine Guns (Ricochet & Rich Swann) vs. The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) DDT4 First Round Match
Promotion: PWG
Rating: 4/5
Comment: Once again, Super fun match. Focused on the comedy. SuperKicks party, double ace crushers and crazy high fliying spots. Oh, loved the commentators discussing about how should they call the "zig zag" (Ziggler's finisher, one called it neckbreaker, the other one called it zig zag)

Match: Kevin Steen vs. Colt Cabana (34th Street Death Match)

Promotion: ROH

Event: Supercard Of Honor V

Rating: 3.7

Comment: This was a really good brawl, quite the brutal one too. Seeing the violent side of Cabana is unusual, but it's also great, and it made this match much better. Spot with the thumbtacks was awesome, and the Corino run in was done well. ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL spot when Steen had the crossface applied on Colt and then Corino handed him a barbed wire bat applying more pressure and making Cabana bleed in the mean time. Steen won when Cabana didn't respond to the 10 count. Good match.

Match: F.I.S.T(Gargano and Taylor) vs Colony(Green Ant and Soldier Ant)
Promotion: Chikara
Rating: 3/5
Comment: This was a decent match with nice mat wrestling at the start. Colony had more offense in this match and both teams worked well together. It never really had any real near falls to hook me into it but it was good for the relativity short time.

Promotion: PWG
Rating: 3.2/5
Comment: Adam Cole and Kyle OReilly, my faves indy wrestlers. 4 great in ring workers. However, I expected a better match. The beginning was meh, but everything in the last 5 minutes or so was awesome. The crowd was pretty quiet during the match.

Match: Quarterfinal Match for the PWG World Tag Titles: The Unbreakable Fucking Machines (c) vs. The Young Bucks
Promotion: PWG
Rating: 3/5
Comment: This tournament hasn't lived up to the hype for me. Maybe my standards are too high. Another meh match for PWG standars. I believe the bucks want to show in the finals what they are capable of. Fun match, like any Bucks match and they crowd was louder.

Comment: Really short match, but probably one of the best matches of the night. What can I say? Cole and Steen have a great chemistry. Loved the way the match ended. Generico was so over

Match: Bobby Fish vs Chris Hero
Promotion: Evolve
Event: Evolve 3 Rise or Fall
Rating: 3.5/5
Comment: This was a nice little match with both men looked like beasts with their strikes, Fish had more of the offense here particularity with moves like the falcon arrow and he done a nice springboard dive on the outside. Nice mat wrestling at the start but this match really got going in the last five minutes with some stiff elbows and kicks. Brutal.




Match: TJ Perkins vs Kyle O' Reilly

Promotion: Evolve
Event: Evolve 3 Rise or Fall
Rating: 4/5
Comment: This was a great contest both men have great such chemistry. Match starts with mat wrestling and we see a nice monkey flip sequence. A great spot in the match is when O'Reilly is doing his rolling butterflies suplex and just when he is about to do the 3rd suplex of the move TJ counters by pushing him to the corner and O'Reilly runs to him and Perkins performs a Ace Crusher from jumping up off the floor. Lots of great submissions and counters from both men and some brutal Kicks from Kyle.

Match: Open the twin gates match, Akira Tozawa & BXB Hulk vs Naruki Doi & Ricochet. Kobe world 2013
Promotion: Dragon Gate
Rating: 4
Comment: This match started out with some comedy, letting Ricochet and Tozawa show their swag. Tozawa giggling like a school girl while throwing chairs into the ring always cracks me up. Then the tempo kinda dropped off for a while before picking back up. Around the 15 minute mark the tempo picked up big time and the match went into that insane Japan place. The great Kobe crowd helped as well. The ending stretch was pretty insane and Ricochet's finisher is damn better than PAC/Adrian Neville's (come at me Rhod). I give this a 4 due to the drop in tempo.
