WAVE - Weekday WAVE Vol. 109 (7/18/2017)

1. Moeka Haruhi & Natsu Sumire vs. Natsumi Maki & SAKI

**1/4

2. Keisuke Goto vs. Yasu Urano

Another enjoyable Keisuke Goto match.

**1/2

3. Fairy Nipponbashi vs. Mika Iida

Cutest match of the year.

***

4. Ayako Hamada & Hiroe Nagahama vs. Gokigen BBA (Cherry & Kaori Yoneyama)

This match was alright, Hamada was the workhorse and really carrying it.

**1/4

5. ASUKA, Misaki Ohata & Ryo Mizunami vs. Rina Yamashita, Yuki Miyazaki & Yumi Ohka

This was spectacular trios match with fast-paced action and classic WAVE silliness; Miyazaki brings a LADDER into the equation in a way that totally worked.

WAVE - Young OH! OH! Vol. 37 (10/3/2017)

1. Mabudachi❤Chu2byo卍卍 (Maruko Nagasaki & Mio Momono) vs. Satsuki Totoro & Yako Fujigasaki

Mabudachi is already one of my favorite tag teams on the scene, they were super fun to watch here, they're such sneaky little shits. Yako seems to have mastered the art of the hip attack. Totoro is starting to understand how to work with her body type, she looked impressive; cute too. Great opener.

***1/2 

2. Hiroe Nagahama & Miyuki Takase vs. Miki Tanaka & Natsumi Maki

This was alright. Tanaka and Takase had an interesting segment. I'm looking forward to seeing how those two grow.

**

3. Fairy Nipponbashi vs. Natsu Sumire

This was Sumire's second-to-last WAVE match (as a member of the roster, anyway), and it's against Fairy Nipponbashi, so you know what to expect. Just a fun comedy match between two friends.

**

4. Kaho Kobayashi & Rina Yamashita vs. NEW-TRA (Rin Kadokura & Takumi Iroha)

I expected something more from this match-up, so this was a bit of disappointment. The Iroha-Rina stuff in the closer was good, albeit sloppy. 

**1/2

***3/4

6. Regina di WAVE Championship: Ryo Mizunami (c) vs. Moeka Haruhi

This was one hell of a carry job from Mizunami. Moeka showed fighting spirit and had great counters and took some punishment. Really great match.

****1/2

Benten-Musume vs. Dotomi Bolshoi vs. Fairy Nipponbashi vs. Hibiscus Mii vs. Kuro Benten-Musume vs. Kuroneko vs. Kyusei Ninja Ranmaru vs. Mei Lee vs. Misaki Glico #2 vs. Misaki Glico #3 vs. Mr. Misaki Glico vs. Nyanber vs. Police Wo~man vs. Rina Yamashita vs. Sawako Shimono (DAIJO, 2/12/2017)

DAIJO - Valentine Labyrinth (2/12/2017)

Hikake Bridge OSAKA G1 GP Rumble: Benten-Musume vs. Dotomi Bolshoi vs. Fairy Nipponbashi vs. Hibiscus Mii vs. Kuro Benten-Musume vs. Kuroneko vs. Kyusei Ninja Ranmaru vs. Mei Lee vs. Misaki Glico #2 vs. Misaki Glico #3 vs. Mr. Misaki Glico vs. Nyanber vs. Police Wo~man vs. Rina Yamashita vs. Sawako Shimono

***1/4

DAIJO - September (9/12/2014)

1. Yuu Yamagata, Hikaru Shida & Mika Iida vs. Kana, Tomoka Nakagawa & Kaho Kobayashi

Excellent opener. Kana was the highlight of the match, always get enjoyment out of her feuding with Shida over who has the best hip attacks. Furthermore, Iida got a taste of her glorious stinkface. 

**3/4

2. Kuishinbo Kamen vs. Kyoko Kimura

There's mat work at the start that looks like a genuine struggle, with strikes thrown during holds. The clown fights dirty with closed-fists. Kyoko is more than happy to return the favor. It's not often you see a face Kyoko, but Kushinbo was such an asshole in the way he worked her over that it just worked.

****

3. Fairy Nipponbashi, Kyusei Ninja Ranmaru & Hibiscus Mii vs. Benten-Musume, Misaki Guriko & Nyanbar 

***1/4

4. Ayako Hamada vs. Rina Yamashita

The first half was Hamada smothering the rookie with her superior mat game, and the second half was Hamada overwhelming the rookie with her superior everything else. Rina's offense basic as she is still in her rookie phase, but I thought she made a good fighting spirit rally.

***1/2

5. Yumi Ohka vs. Sawako Shimono

Ohka throws a killer big boot and they are here in abundance, and Shimono's huge hips makes for a painful raiden drop. I thought this flowed well and the selling was good.

***1/2

Yumi Ohka vs. Fairy Nipponbashi (WAVE, 12/4/2013)

WAVE - Weekday Wave Vol. 69 (12/4/2013)

Yumi Ohka vs. Fairy Nipponbashi

Something of a dream match since Ohka is in her old fairy idol gimmick. They battle with magic wands, Yumi fights dirty with cheap shots to Nipponbashi. Hearing Ohka recite spells with her husky voice was cute. Fun match with throwbacks and impeccable comedic timing.

***1/2

Hikaru Shida, Misaki Ohata, Mika Iida & Kagetsu vs. Rina Yamashita, Sawako Shimono, Fairy Nipponbashi & Yuu Yamagata (DAIJO, 12/25/2016)

DAIJO - Holy Night (12/25/2016)

Elimination: Hikaru Shida, Misaki Ohata, Mika Iida & Kagetsu vs. Rina Yamashita, Sawako Shimono, Fairy Nipponbashi & Yuu Yamagata

This was the blow-off to a years-worth of build between DAIJO's sekigun and the outsiders, and it is a doozy. Great heel work from the outsiders as they cut the ring in half, and use weapons and choke holds. Heel Iiida looks amazing in her Mio Shirai gear. Fairy's FIP segments were so good, she was HOPELESS and that made Yamashita's comeback that much stronger. Well laid out.
