Leon vs Momo Tani


Hanako Nakamori is the special ref and gets to hit the girls with a fan when they do certain things.

They lock up. Leon does a dirty break and gets a fan shot then gets another for protesting it. Leon goes for a pin and gets a fan shot then Momo camel clutches her. Leon gets hit with the fan while she is in the camel clutch. Momo hits a running knee to the gut in the corner then is dropkciked hard in the corner. Leon then slams her and flipping sentons her for 2. Leon then camel clutches her.

Momo drops double knees on her and gets hit with the fan for saying something. Leon then gets it too and forearms her. They trade forearms then Momo kneels on her on the ropes. Leon spinning backbreakers her then throws her off the top rope.

Leon gets stuck up top and they battle then Momo codebreakers her and running meteora's her. Momo drops double knees on her from the 2nd rope then stretches her. They trade forearms then Leon top rope dropkicks her for 2. Hanako tries to hit Leon with the fan but ends up hitting Momo instead. She then hits her with it successfully as they argue and Momo O'Mahoney rolls Leon for 2. Momo then gets hit with the fan and Leon pins her for the win.

These are comedy matches with the ref being allowed to hit people. It doesn't make a ton of sense and I don't really enjoy these. This would have been fine without all of the nonsense.

Hanako Nakamori vs Chie Ozora

Hana rolls out of a wristlock then Chie bridges and flips backwards out of Hana's wristlock. Chie bodyscissors her and they chain wrestle. They test of strength and Chie jumps on her fingers then double stomps her. Chie then grabs Hana's arm and walks the ropes into an armdrag. Hana then camel clutches her.

Chie jumps on her back for a sleeper and a reverse double armbar. Chie then ties her up in the ropes and dropkicks her back then armbars her over the top rope. Chie does a springboard kick off the 2nd rope that she botches then puts Hana in the cattle mutilation.

Hana then gori specials Chie then boston crabs her. Hana misses a kick then gets dropkicked. Chie then DDT's her and top rope shoulder blocks her. Chie then hits a perfectplex. She goes for an armbar but Hana reverses it into her own submission.

Chie then rolls her into a leg bar but Hana ropebreaks. Chie hits another perfect plex then ankle locks her. Hana then does a wild a stretch muffler where she lays back and hooks her leg around Chie's throat to win it.

Chie got to do more here than I've seen her do before and she did a good job doing it. This wasn't too bad at all and was one of the better matches I've seen Chie in. 

Crea and AKARI vs WANTED (Kazuki and Rydeen Hagane)

Crea rushes Rydeen with forearms then it shouldered over. Crea then trips Rydeen into an Akari elbow. Rydeen then takes a camel clutch into a basement dropkick. Akari double reverse armbars Rydeen on the mat but Kaz breaks it up, then Rydeen hip throws Akari.

Kaz hits some shoulder throws on Akari then sleepers her. Akari comes back with a nice shotgun dropkick then Crea gets in and indian deathlocks Kaz. Kaz hits some knees to the gut and tags out. Rydeen misses a corner splash and gets machine gun chops from Crea and fights off a 2v1 with lariats. Rydeen does a nice catapult onto Kaz's knees on both opponents. Rydeen then splashes Crea for 2.

Crea and Akari shotgun dropkick Rydeen then Crea facekicks her for 2. Akari strangleholds Rydeen in the corner then 2nd rope dropkicks her. Rydeen spinning backbreakers Akari. Rydeen splashes Akari in the corner then vader bomb knees her for 2. Kaz gets in then vader bomb knees Akari but is rolled into a leglock that Rydeen breaks.

Akari lariats and suplexes Kazuki. Crea tries to ankle lock Kazuki but Rydeen stops it then Akari double crossbodies both opponents from the 2nd rope. Akari 619's Kaz then Crea northern lights suplexes Kaz for 2. Crea hits a nice german on Kaz then Rydeen backdrops both opponents at the same time.

Rydeen and Kaz splash their opponents then Kaz does a bad knee to the head of Crea for 2. Kaz then TKO's Crea for 2. Crea hits a nasty sping kick to Kaz's head that you can really hear the thud on. Rydeen drops Crea on her butt then Kaz meteora's Crea for 2. Rydeen samoan drops Crea into a Kaz top rope double knee drop for the win.

I thought it was a decent match. It was fast paced and had almost no downtime despite being 15 minutes long. The teams worked well together and we got a couple different moves out of Wanted than usual.

Overall thoughts: 2 of the 3 were decent matches and the other would have been too if it weren't for the comedy.
