W*ING - Dead or Alive (5/7/1992)

3. W*ING World Junior Heavyweight Championship Tournament - Qualifying Match: Masaru Toi vs. Masayoshi Motegi

An engaging match, with explosive offense and selling. There's a powerbomb where their heads collide and they start pouring out blood, match doesn't go on for much longer after that.

**1/2

4. Mitsuteru Tokuda vs. Mongolian Mauler

5. W*ING Pacific Northwest Heavyweight Championship: Yukihiro Kanemura (c) vs. Super Invader

Third match in a row to start off with an outside brawl. This was action-packed, and it's only 9 minutes long. There's a sloppy avalanche belly-to-belly from Super Invader where Kanemura lands on his arm; both threw caution to the wind in some of the bumps they took.

6. Indian Strap Match: The Grappler vs. Wahoo McDaniel

Loving the gritty tone of this show. This was a violent brawl with tons of a bloodshed. Wahoo drags the lifeless body of The Grappler to each corner as blood leaks on his white boots -- a chilling visual.

***1/2

7. Undertaker Deathmatch: Jason the Terrible vs. Mr. Pogo

More brawling and bloodshed. The ending was madness. Pogo and Super Invader try to set Jason on fire while he's in the casket, and that causes a giant brawl to end the show. Jason is taken away in the casket (his mask mysteriously returning after having been removed) with a title card promising his return.

***3/4
