This is a match from the weekly free Wednesday show from IWA Unlimited.  Learn more about them at their Facebook, Twitter, and Website.

 

Recap by TJ Hawke:

Rose and Castle started off the match.  Neither man got a real advantage.  Tozawa and Cage tagged in.  Cage took him down with a couple of dropkicks, which allowed the Buffet to get the advantage.  The Buffet worked Tozawa over for a while.  Tozawa eventually came back with a big rolling elbow on Castle.  Rose and Cage tagged in.  Rose got a nearfall after a sliding kick.  Tozawa tagged back in, and he had the advantage on Cage.  Neither team has been the definitive heel, so the crowd started to rally behind Cage as he got worked over.  Cage came back with a springboard cross-body on Rose, but Rose cut him right off and tagged in Tozawa.  Cage managed to hit a springboard lariat on Rose, and he then tagged out to Castle.  Castle and Tozawa traded some moves.  Rose and Cage ended up in the ring again.  Cage went for a frog splash, but Rose avoided it.  Tozawa hit Cage with a bridging German after ROse booted Cage, but Castle broke up the nearfall.  Castle hit Tozawa with a running boot in the corner.  Cage followed that up with shotgun knees and a Gibson Driver: 1…2…3!

 

I honestly don’t have much to say about this match.  It was a lot of fun and the action was good.  The match didn’t grab me like great matches do, but I enjoyed the whole thing.  I guess this was a lukewarm analysis, but I definitely recommend that you watch this match.

Match Rating: ***1/4

About TJ Hawke

TJ was a fan of wrestling as a kid (starting around 1999), and his first concrete wrestling memory is some kid bringing Hulk Hogan his old yellow and red gear backstage during an episode of Nitro. Hogan needed the gear to defeat Kevin Nash in a title vs. career match at the next WCW PPV. Nash lost the match and his career, which sadly resulted in the world losing out on seeing Kevin Nash matches for the last 13 years. Like almost all young kids, TJ’s interest in wrestling fluctuated over the years until an episode of Raw on July 3, 2006. TJ was curious and excited to see his beloved RVD show up with the WWE Title belt and what he thought was the revitalized European title. TJ decided he must turn to the the internet to figure out what was going on. Almost 6 years later, TJ is still searching the internet every day to find out what is going on in wrestling. Now though, he writes for the pop culture site (411mania.com), has his own blog (The Best of Chikara), and is the creator of the very site you are reading now.
