Matches I've Been Watching 10/1/09

Jushin Thunder Liger, Tiger Mask, Great Sasuke & Kota Ibushi vs Koji Kanemoto, Ryusuke Taguchi, Dick Togo & TAKA Michinoku August 30th 2009 New Japan/ Jado Gedo Produce

This match was ok but it could have been much better without Tiger Mask. That guy just sucks period. The best part about the match was Sasuke's crazy bumps including one on the ring apron back first that had to hurt and Togo's Lucha inspired bullet dive where he lands in the 3rd row. Tiger Mask win the match for his team pinning Taguchi.

William Regal vs Christian September 13th 2009 WWE Breaking Point ECW title match

Awesome match from two of the best workers not only in wwe but in the world. The story of this match is at Summerslam, Christian beat Regal in a matter of seconds with the Killswitch. Here he tries it 3 times but Regal keeps finding a reversal. Regal brings the Brutality here with Knees to the head and dangerous Suplexes. Finally Regal screws up and Christian is able to hit the Killswitch for the win. Great match

Akebono/Kono/Hama vs. TARU/Zodiac/Doering August 30th 2009 All Japan

Hama and Akebono are probably 400 pounds each. It's like the new Awesome Kongs. Horrible match as all 6 guys aren't very good. Zodiac and Doering are ok but they get sucked down to TARU's level and he's imo the worst guy on the roster. Most of the match is built around Zodiac's problems with his partners. He would turn in September. Hama wins with a screwed up Jack Hammer on Zodiac that had to hurt. Best part of the match was the Sumo guy at ringside hitting Taru with chops.

Riki Choshu/Shiro Koshinaka vs. Osamu Nishimura/Manabu Soya August 30th 2009 All Japan

Fun match with the old guys Choshu and Koshinaka bringing the ASS BASED OFFENSE and the Lariats. Nishimura gets angry at Soya and Turns on him. Shiro does a Top Rope Ass bump on Soya for the win.
