Match of the Day - 9/29/2015: Kenta Kobashi vs. Mitshuharu Misawa!

Its Pro Wrestling NOAH’s turn to be showcased as Today’s Match of the Day goes to two mega stars of the company, Kenta Kobashi vs. the late great Mitshuru Misawa! During their heyday, these two were on the top of the mountain wherever they went – more so Misawa, who has had 23 5-Star matches (maybe more, if ya ask me) in his career. Kenta Kobashi, to his credit, has continued to remain very popular among the fans even after retiring from in-ring competition due to being diagnosed with cancer. Unfortunately, Misawa’s career and life came to end when he passed away due to injuries suffered during a tag team match back in 2009. This particular match greatly depicts what a professional wrestling match should look like. It’s like poetry in motion, ya know? Not once do you see an error being made by these two in this match. This is PURORESU at its finest. Watch this match and prepare to be educated.

Wrestler of the Day - 9/29/15: Fenix!

Today’s Wrestler of the Day is the awe-inspiring highflyer of AAA and Lucha Underground, Fenix!

I first got into Fenix by watching him on Lucha Underground. I was immediately hooked on him, and I began looking up more matches of his. His work in AAA is just as impressive – if not, more impressive than his work in Lucha Underground. And it doesn’t hurt to come from a wrestling family (for those of you who didn’t know, Pentagon, Jr. is Fenix’s real-life brother) as well. Come to find out, Fenix has held the AAA Fusion Championship and is one of the top technicos in Mexico. The same can be said for his tenure in Lucha Underground. Not only is he one of the top technicos in the company, he is the inaugural Gift of the Gods Champion, which gives him a guaranteed shot at the Lucha Underground Championship (that’s IF he doesn’t wait too long). My advice to you is that if you haven’t seen this guy’s work, check him out. You won’t be disappointed.

I have gotta take it Lucha Underground for this one, and give you this match. Why? Because it has “Grave Consequences”…
