Stardom - Gold May 2016 (5/15/2016)
World of Stardom Championship: Io Shirai (c) vs. Mayu Iwatani
This was such an amazing match. An absolute classic. Io is known to be a master technician and high flyer, but she can also deliver a beatdown. The stomps and kicks she delivered to Mayu in the early stages were almost hard to watch. Mayu had won the Cinderella tournament, this was her third opportunity at the Red belt, and she gave an all-time performance against her Thunder Rock tag partner. Everything here felt pristine, offense and defense, hard strikes and suplexes.
****3/4
