Stardom - 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 (9/1/2019)

4. 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Red Stars Block: Momo Watanabe vs. Tam Nakano

This was an excellent bout. Paced and executed superbly, with a strong sequence to end things. Both performers gave some aesthetically pleasing bumps (top rope Somato and Tiger Suplex in particular).

***3/4

5. 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Blue Stars Block: Jamie Hayter vs. Utami Hayashishita

The Jamie-Utami feud has much more to offer than what was shown, but I enjoyed the match for what it was. Jamie's offense had force behind it, and the trash talking was fun. Utami's comeback wasn't as hot as it could have been, but good.

***1/2

6. 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Blue Stars Block: Arisa Hoshiki vs. Konami

This had consistent action packed into 8-minutes. The story was simple and enjoyable.

***1/2

7. 5STAR Grand Prix 2019 Blue Stars Block: Andras Miyagi vs. Kagetsu

There's great skills on display in this match and the significance of these two fighting each other in Sendai. But it wasn't a strong match, as neither gave strong performances. They kept it fairly basic.
