This was a losing unit must disband match. For such a stipulation I expected something a bit more heated, there was some heat from the crowd but nothing close to the emotion I expected. The crowd made noise at the finish with the heel turns and chanted in the post match. But during the match … Continue reading RO&D (TAKA Michinoku, Taiyo Kea, D-Lo Brown, Buchanan) Vs Voodoo Murders (TARU, RO’Z, Brother YASHII, SUWAMA) AJPW 17/09/2006
Minoru Suzuki is a guy who while talented is not someone I ever look forward to watching in his big title matches for a couple of reasons, all of which were present here.

The dynamic between these two was interesting as before the match they shook hands something Kawada does not do often. After the match they shake hands and bow to one another but during the match they were really at each other in a brutal way. They looked like they really had an issue and we're … Continue reading Taiyo Kea c Vs Toshiaki Kawada Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship AJPW 27/08/2006
This was Kojima's 9th defence of his title. They started off here pretty slow doing some simple big match opening spots like the test of strength and some head lock reversals. It was a start that said the match could be going really long. But suddenly just after the five minute call kojima hits a … Continue reading Satoshi Kojima c Vs Taiyo Kea Triple crown heavyweight title AJPW 03/07/2006
