TAJIRI vs. TAKA Michinoku (WNC, 10/31/2013)

WNC (10/31/2013)

WNC Championship: TAJIRI (c) vs. TAKA Michinoku

Sho Funaki is the guest referee, and he counts to FIVE when TAKA applies a figure-four on the ringpost. Took me out of the action a bit, but this was otherwise excellent. This is a TAJIRI match in 2013 so he isn't going to be doing a lot. It was very simple, but these are two pros who know how to make everything count. The danger of TAJIRI's kicks were sold very well here, with just one kick to the stomach almost knocking TAKA unconscious. TAJIRI's proteges are flanking the ring, and they're rallying along with the fans for him to make his comeback; the atmosphere is amazing. Really good match.
