Sendai Girls (4/16/2019)

Sendai Girls World Championship: Chihiro Hashimoto (c) vs. Jordynne Grace

Sometimes when wrestlers are similar in style and moveset the match can be uneventful, but this was a great match. It probably helps that Jordynee wrestles a more flashy and faster-paced style than the usual powerhouse and that made for an interesting contrast with Chihiro's heavier style.

***3/4

Hazuki vs. Starlight Kid (Stardom, 4/21/2019)

Stardom - Glory Stars (Day) (4/21/2019)

Hazuki vs. Starlight Kid

Sort of a streamlined version of the High Speed match these two had earlier in the year. It's compact and a well worked display of technical and junior-style wrestling. Kid's no first-class athlete, but she has good timing and lays her moves out in a compelling fashion.

***3/4

Hikaru Shida & Mei Suruga vs. Mitsuru Konno & Riho (Gatoh Move, 4/21/2019)

Gatoh Move - Japan Tour・ #421 (4/21/2019)

Hikaru Shida & Mei Suruga vs. Mitsuru Konno & Riho

It's always a special event when Shida wrestles in Ichigaya. This was very good, Riho and Shida have a particularly good session, exchanging knee strikes and counters. The finishing stretch was hot with plenty of reversals and cut-offs.

***3/4

Command Bolshoi & Riho vs. Emi Sakura & Mei Suruga (Gatoh Move, 4/18/2019)

Command Bolshoi & Riho vs. Emi Sakura & Mei Suruga

This was bursting with personality and energy. It was fun to watch Bolshoi apply her technique in Ichigaya and the performers maintained an exciting pace.
