Hey kids, here's another zany Kenny Omega "main event"-style spectacle for you featuring everyone's favorite stone cold pitbull, Tomohiro Ishii. This was a bit of a roller coaster to say the least, with Ishii taking a page out of KUSHIDA's book by trying to overwhelm Omega out of the gate with a barrage of offense and when Omega tries to bail, Ishii ain't having it and stays on him. Loved the timing with the apron powerbomb, forcing Ishii back into the ring before the count-out but he smartly rolls back outside to recover with a fresh twenty. Great bumping and selling by Ishii throughout, as Kenny works over his neck. He sold Omega's chops like death and when he tries to hulk up, Omega spikes him with a DDT. The action and the crowd heats up as they start throwing endless bombz, Ishii hitting a ton of hard lariats and countering the One-Winged Angel with a reverse frankensteiner...but he can't keep Omega down. Kenny's knee strikes looked/sounded awesome, especially the finishing combo, which was sold beautifully by Ishii before Omega hits a brainbuster and the One-Winged Angel for the three count. A high-end spotfest, another notch on Omega's bedazzled ringpost, and probably Ishii's best performance of the year so far. Weeeeeeeee.
