NintendoLogic Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 The joshi match immediately piqued my interest. I've been a Kandori advocate for a while now, but I don't think I've ever seen a Saito match before. And I didn't know that she had died until a few weeks ago. Anyway, this match is presented as a straightforward styles clash. Kandori controls the mat while Saito has the advantage in the standup and striking portions. It feels like one of those early UFC events before everyone started cross-training or Ryu vs. Zangief in Street Fighter. There's a double pinfall a little more than 15 minutes in which leads to a restart, and they kind of lose me from that point as it becomes a bit nearfall-heavy for my tastes. But the finish redeems it, as Kandori comes dangerously close to inventing the Tiger Driver 91 a year early. To be honest, it feels like the germ of an all-time great match that isn't quite fully realized. Still worth checking out, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Schneider Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 FMW match retains, although the Kandori gem put up a great fight and is a worthy addition to my new Complete and Accurate Kandori http://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2017/11/all-time-moty-list-head-to-head-1990.html http://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2017/11/complete-and-accurate-shinobu-kandori.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 AND STIIIIIIIIIIIILL REIGNING CHAMPION... I will def. watch the ladies tear it up when my net time turns over in a couple days though. That sounds just as up my alley as the FMW tag honestly.
