Topic	Board 8 Match of the Week - Week 2 (G1 Special) [wrestling]

Bidoof's Match Recommendation (Week 2) Kensuke Sasaki vs. Yoshihiro Takayama NJPW, G1 Climax 2004 - August 8, 2004 Match Link: https://www.bilibili.com/s/video/BV1pz4y1d7h4 I'm sorry in advance for the quality. Get NJPW World if it really bothers you. Heck, just get NJPW World in general. Watching WALTER/Thatcher is partially the inspiration behind this pick from me. Also, I wanted to recommend something that's VERY different from last week. Instead of graceful, fast-paced junior tag action, I'm giving you a war between two of the hardest-hitting heavyweights in New Japan's history. From the opening staredown, you can feel that this match is going to be special and, by the end, you're going to be feeling it as some of the strikes from these men will be so loud that you might even begin to believe you are there. I hope everyone enjoys this gem from the company's dark ages and I look forward to seeing what Steiner and Iceman suggest this week. EDIT: As for my vote for last week, I liked Roddy/ZSJ the most between my fellow contributors' picks. Pro wrestling is so simple you guy. I think there's like...3 real bumps? in this entire match. And it fucking bangs anyway. The story is simple. Kensuke Sasaki is a bad man. Yoshihiro Takayama is an older bigger stupider looking bad man. They have an epic staredown. They do the tests of strength. They do the big strong guy spots. The forearm the shit out of each other. And Takayama wins every single exchange. Sasaki gets the advantage when he does by using things other than pure power for the most part. He's willing to go up to the top rope and jump. He's willing to use technique. He ends up, subtly, realizing he's not going to be able to overpower Takayama but....he hates it. When he takes the advantage he really goes right back to trying prove he's the tougher son of a bitch. Towards the end at the conclusion of another big segment where Takayama beats the snot out of this dude i legit bit on a running knee to the chest as the finish. Sasaki had been taken down by Takayamas overwhelming power and why not have that be the end. Sasaki makes a comeback from there and gets exactly 1 near fall off a suplex. He goes for another but.... again for the tenth time this match Takayama overpowers him. He says fuck you. And then captures him for a pretty damn good German suplex considering everyones size here and puts away Sasaki So simple. So good. 4 stars --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy <cite>Eddv posted [p:944674487] in Board 8 Ma...
