This was nothing more than an extended squash. Untouchables best up Asako with some nasty stomps. Omori managed to get in but was beaten down by Misawa. Asako comes back in but then gets knocked out by Misawa with an elbow we don't see. **

Mitsuharu Misawa & Yoshinari Ogawa Vs Akira Taue & Jun Izumida NOAH 19/08/2000
This was alright at best. There was a nice bit with a senton by Misawa off the ramp towards the start and misawa's elbows when he came in for the last five minutes were good. But for a good portion of the match it was just meh. The heat segment on Ogawa went for a … Continue reading Mitsuharu Misawa & Yoshinari Ogawa Vs Akira Taue & Jun Izumida NOAH 19/08/2000
KENTA & Marufuji c vs Kotaro Suzuki & Yoshinari Ogawa GHC jr Heavyweight Tag Titles 03/04/2004
For a lot of this reign KentFuji have been facing off against outsiders attempting tho take NOAHs belts away from it or internal heels such as kanemaru. Here for the first time were KentFuji actually the heels, yes they are against Ogawa who is a massive dickhead but really everybody loves him, add to that … Continue reading KENTA & Marufuji c vs Kotaro Suzuki & Yoshinari Ogawa GHC jr Heavyweight Tag Titles 03/04/2004
Yoshinari Ogawa c vs Akira Taue GHC World Heavyweight title 26/05/2002
The build up to this match was very good, there was lots of fairly short tags between champion and challenger that would end in different ways, Ogawa would get the pin with a roll up one time then Taue would win with a roll up in return. Then Taue won with a choke sleeper (called … Continue reading Yoshinari Ogawa c vs Akira Taue GHC World Heavyweight title 26/05/2002
Ratels (Daisuke Harada, Tadasuke, Hayata, Yo-Hey) Vs Stinger (Atsushi Kotoge, Yoshinari Ogawa, Chris Ridgeway, Kotaro Suzuki) Elimination Tag Noah 24/11/2019
Decent enough elimination tag, they had fairly regular eliminations from about 5 minutes in and it never felt like it dragged all that much which was nice. Sadly the two best members of Stinger were gone after less than 8 minutes. This left the meh Chris Ridgeway and the ok when against Harada Kotoge left … Continue reading Ratels (Daisuke Harada, Tadasuke, Hayata, Yo-Hey) Vs Stinger (Atsushi Kotoge, Yoshinari Ogawa, Chris Ridgeway, Kotaro Suzuki) Elimination Tag Noah 24/11/2019
Yoshinari Ogawa & Kotaro Suzuki c Vs Daisuke Harada & Tadasuke GHC jr tag titles NOAH 02/11/2019
A fairly simple but we'll worked jr tag match, they went at each other fast from the off as the feud dictated they should which was nice. There were a few good bits in there from Ogawa as you would expect, he is an expert in putting in nifty little tricks into his matches that … Continue reading Yoshinari Ogawa & Kotaro Suzuki c Vs Daisuke Harada & Tadasuke GHC jr tag titles NOAH 02/11/2019
Mitsuharu Misawa & Yoshinari Ogawa c Vs Naomichi Marufuji & KENTA GHC Heavyweight Tag Titles NOAH 25/04/2004
One of the best tag matches ever and for my money the second best match NOAH has ever put on behind the Misawa vs Kobashi 2003 match. The first 20 minutes of this are two heat segments on the jrs with flashes of hope spots quickly cut off through sheer brutality from misawa or slyness … Continue reading Mitsuharu Misawa & Yoshinari Ogawa c Vs Naomichi Marufuji & KENTA GHC Heavyweight Tag Titles NOAH 25/04/2004
Catch up of things from the last few months where I haven’t posted anything
The last review I posted was at the very start of April and after that point I have not watched much wrestling at all. I have had some personal issues that have contributed to that. I missed nearly all of the cc outside of the first three nights and the final. Other than that I … Continue reading Catch up of things from the last few months where I haven’t posted anything
Yoshinari Ogawa vs Naomichi Marufuji NOAH 17/03/2019
Old man Ogawa is still great. The vast majority of this was worked on the mat with Ogawa largely in control, established from the start that he was going after Maru's neck with countless headlocks and headlock variants. Marufuji on the other hand, in the short time he had in control went on the attack … Continue reading Yoshinari Ogawa vs Naomichi Marufuji NOAH 17/03/2019
