Stardom - 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 (Day) (9/12/2020)

 3. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block A: Utami Hayashishita vs. Saya Iida

Good short match. Taking nothing away from Utami's performance, which was strong, but Iida made the match. Iida was working really hard, showing a high workrate with great looking bodywork, transitions and counters.

***1/2

5. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block B: Tam Nakano vs. Saya Kamitani

Another great tournament match from Kamitani, who has been very consistent in this tournament, with one breakout performance after another. It was fast-moving and energetic, and there were cool moments that made effective use of both wrestlers' flexibility.

***1/2

6. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block A: Jungle Kyona vs. Natsuko Tora

Good match to heat up the TCS-Oedo Tai feud. Both wrestlers have a history as teammates and their chemistry was present in the ring. That Jungle Buster sequence was just an amazing display of strength and balance.

***1/4

9. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block A: Syuri vs. AZM

Very good match and one of the best singles matches from Syuri’s Stardom run. They found a good rhythm and were going back and forth with some crisp offense and defense.

***1/2
