Chikayo Nagashima vs. Meiko Tanaka (WAVE, 5/10/2016)

WAVE - Weekday WAVE Vol. 96 (5/10/2016)

Catch THE WAVE Chrome Yellow Block: Chikayo Nagashima vs. Meiko Tanaka

A surprise attack before the bell! Nagashima connects a nasty boot to Tanaka's chin, holy fuck. Tanaka tries to win via count-out after an insane spear through the ropes to Nagashima on the apron. This was great; a veteran putting a smackdown on a desperate rookie.

***3/4

Aoi Kizuki vs. Meiko Tanaka (WAVE, 5/17/2016)

WAVE - Young Oh! Oh! 29 (5/17/2016)

Catch THE WAVE Chrome Yellow Block: Aoi Kizuki vs. Meiko Tanaka

Aoi Kizuki's work on top included biting and bashing Tanaka's face into turnbuckles from top to bottom, and a nice backwork session. She is also having to frequently pull out wedgies which made this 15-minute draw all the more engaging. Tanaka reminds me of a younger Ryo Mizunami. I miss her.

***1/4
