WAVE - Sunday WAVE vol.33 (10/22/2017)

1. Three on One Gauntlet: Ryo Mizunami vs. Arisa Nakajima, Miyuki Takase & Miki Tanaka

This opens with one hell of a clash between Mizunami and Nakajima. Miyuki was alright, interested in seeing how she develops. Tanaka might have had a breakout performance here, she got over with her comedy act. She tries to melt Mizunami's costume with an iron (!). Great way to start the show.

***1/4

3. ASUKA & Hikaru Shida vs. Nagisa Nozaki & Yuki Miyazaki

**1/2

4. Rina Yamashita & Boss to Mammy (Yumi Ohka &  Mio Momono) vs. Moeka Haruhi & NEW-TRA (Rin Kadokura & Takumi Iroha)

5. Regina di WAVE Championship: Misaki Ohata (c) vs. Hiroe Nagahama

I thought Ohata would pull something out of Nagahama, but that did not happen. Instead, she smothered Nagahama in an aggressive way, not allowing her to mount much offense. Nagahama's comebacks were weak -- she's still in the dropkick phase despite having wrestled for 3 years. Fortunately, she didn't get much. One thing I can credit Nagahama for is her flexibility; Ohata was really cranking back on those submission holds. This was high end junior punishment.

***1/2
