Two of my favorites doing what they do best. Hase is definitely one of the most under-appreciated guys out there, not only rocking the mullet but the 'stache as well. They grapple a bit, fighting over control of the wrist, and when Fujiwara can't maintain it, he gets frustrated and strikes Hase. There's a lot of things to love about this match. The way Hase pulls a trick from Fujiwara's playbook, grinding the forearm and elbow into his face. The grin on Fujiwara's face after tying Hase up in the corner. The time out requests. Fujiwara's busted open head from a comedy spot. At one point, Hase hurts himself trying to headbutt Fujiwara and Fujiwara gives a little strut for good measure. The counterwork was top notch and I loved how Fujiwara kept going back to the armbar in the end, transitioning out of the German suplex hold and then countering the uranage with the armbar takedown. But Hase's counters out of the standing armbar with a beautiful dragon suplex hold for the three count. This match has a little bit of everything, which makes it so much fun to watch. Check it out.
