As long as it never happens again I’m alright with it. I thought they’d forgiven Leo Rush at first.
Hahaha. You weren't alone!

Truth is probably the only guy they could have given that title to to make it mildly entertaining

I enjoyed Gargano vs Cole....
Although, and again, too much no selling of finishers... And it gets abit silly at times when Super kicks are about as effective a slap...

I love a good few kick outs of finishers.
You should watch some 90's era All Japan then with Misawa, Kobashi, Kawada, TAUE and Akiyama
They practically invented that style of match
I think you'd really enjoy it

Me too, but this was at times complete no selling of finishers.... Crowd enjoyed it though, so I guess that's what matters..

Link me up bro
Will do when I get home tonight
Actually, I've got a free moment so I'll post these
I'll just send you these three as they're a good starter kit for anyone not familiar with All Japan. If you like them and want more then just let me know
Mitsuharu Misawa Vs Jumbo Tsuruta - June 1990
This one isn't particularly finisher crazy, but it's a very important match as it essentially "made" Misawa into the top guy in one night and they had like 9 years of sell outs at this arena from that point on. Fans are chanting Misawa's name before he even comes out and had apparently been chanting it before the show even started, so the heat for this is off the charts
Kenta Kobashi and Tsuyoshi Kikuchi Vs Doug Furnas and Dan Kroffat - May 1992
Probably one of the best tag matches ever, owing mostly to poor Kikuchi getting the crap kicked out of him in order to get the thing over. Great way to introduce someone to Kenta Kobashi, my personal favourite wrestler of all-time
Mitsuharu Misawa Vs Toshiaki Kawada - June 1994
For a lot of All Japan fans this is the best match ever. Misawa and Kawada used to be friends (He's in Misawa's corner for the big match with Jumbo) but they ended up becoming rivals and this match was built for literally years. Big moves and kick outs galore here. Kawada is much more a jerk than Misawa so they always good chemistry as Kawada would essentially be default heel in all their matches, even though he wasn't evil or anything, just surly and grumpy
