He's young as fukk though. Breh is 25, an even though I expected him to make "the leap" performance wise already, he can still get there. It's not as sure a thing as I once thought though.

Yes, I remember watching his debut match and thinking "This is a big deal, he's gonna be a huge star" (Not because it was a great match, but because of his name and the attention everyone put on that day), but never heard from him like that anymore.

Him working for Inoki was moronic on his part. He pretty much lost all the momentum his promising start had and dissapeared for like 2 years. He had to basically start from scrap in Big Japan, and it's hard as fukk to become a name people will read about when you are working there :mjcry:

He's been getting more bookings though, even got a spot at this year's Champion Carnival. Unless he completely shyts the bed, he will be a big freelance name - at the very least - in the next 2-3 years.

Daisuke Sekimoto & Suwama vs. Kohei Sato & Shingo Takagi

Really fun tag match. Not a lot of story besides 4 guys beating the shyt out of each other and throwing some bombs.

Strong BJ vs Okami - Big Japan Tag Titles 6/11/17


Another really entertaining tag match. Kamitani and Daichi are on a fukking missions to not only stop the beasts that are Sekimoto and Okabayashi - specially Yuji, dear lord this dude is awesome - but to stand right in front of their faces and go toe to toe with them. Very simple story with both teams going back and forth and with the young fellas showing out. Even though I knew the result beforehand, I fell for a couple of nearfalls. I love this fukking division.

Someone told me about a DDT match around 2012 where before the wrestler got pinned, the lights cut off and a career retrospective played on the screen before the lights came back on and the wrestler kicked out in slow
motion.

Can anyone confirm that this happened? Or who was involved so I can view it? Thanks.

It happened. I think you are talking about Muscle Sakai vs Danshoku Dino but there's a good number of matches were that type of fukkery took place :heh:

DDT matches are a bytch to find since they launched they streaming site.

Fasho, good looks.

Also- I checked out those Miyahara matches you recommended a few pages back and was pretty blown away. Dude is the truth, no doubt about it. Too bad he won't be in G1 this year.

:mjlol: We talk about HUSTLE's fukkery but DDT is in a class of their own
