RIPPA Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 KENTO MIYAHARA vs. Suwama (All Japan - 9/4/16) vs. Suwama (All Japan - 11/27/16) Also see (via Russia or Real Hero) vs. Jun Akiyama and vs. Daisuke Sekimoto KUSHIDA vs. Jushin Liger (New Japan - 5/3/16) vs. Hiromu Takahashi (New Japan - 1//17) vs. David Finlay (New Japan BOSJ 2016)
Spritenaut 32 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 I like both guys so I could go either way here. I'll vote for KUSHIDA's though. I enjoyed KUSHIDA's matches more even though, objectively, I think the quality is about the same. Does that make sense?
Cyanide Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 As re-posted in the Bayley vs KOR thread: KUSHIDA (this would be in all caps if it wasn't already).
J.T. Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 As per above, the two Miyahara matches that I have enjoyed the most have been against Suwama, so what percentage of those matches is on Miyahara, Suwama, or perfect storm of workers and chemistry? I have to go with KUSHIDA if only for having decent matches against a seemingly wider variety of opponents and even then, you can put in an argument against due to quality of opposition to be nitpicky ergo if you are in the ring with Jushin mother fucking Liger, you can only suck so badly.
The Comedian Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 I'll give Miyahara a vote since I just watched a bunch of his stuff from last year and enjoyed it. I'm down with anybody who's part of the "bring the German suplex back as a finisher" movement (that also includes Tozawa and Ho Ho)...
cubbymark Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 KUSHIDA has the better chance of "upsetting" Okada.
Lazlo Woodbine Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 Miyahara got a very good match out of THE BODYGUARD the other day. He's more than justified the faith All Japan have placed in him. The Carnival match with Kengo Mashimo is well worth your time too.
