[CM_Burns]

Golden Lovers vs Young Bucks at Strong Style Evolved

Is this sh1t just 30-40 minutes of flips and no selling, or is it really good?

It's definitely worth a watch.

 

[The Great One]

I thought it was 4 star, at best

I say 3 and a quarter

30-40 minutes of no selling with a "dramatic" story that some people really bought into.

Timothy Thatcher vs Walter from Progress 62

I know what they were trying to do, but if you can't emote, don't do it. When one of the Bucks was like "You wanna punch me in the face, Kenny? " in his saddest voice, I was at his acting

Very good match though, and the hot crowd really helped

When Matt told Kenny to hit the OWA on him I was

Kobashi throwing his body to save Misawa, it was not

I can't put that SSE main as a contender based on the 2 botches. I know one wasn't caught on cam.

Still worth 4 stars minimum.

Despite some of the acting coming off as goofy, I enjoyed it I like the latest YB matches that have been story based while still having the athleticism. Felt very Shawn Michaels inspired (the dramaticism and the back injury). The camera work was really shytty and cheap looking. This would’ve felt grander with NJPW’s usual production. Atleast they avoided Ibushi’s botch though

Timothy Thatcher vs Walter from Progress 62

This was very good, they beat the fukk out each other I couldn't get into the some of the lazy transitions they did - which is a staple of today's indys to be fair - but this was still very much worth the watch

I enjoy this match every move made sense

Wouldn't go that far, some of the no selling was just because and the trading german suplexes spot was a horrible way to "reset" the match
