This ruled. You had Kazuo Yamazaki throwing strikes where he can, with the wily Yoshiaki Fujiwara weathering the storm to snag a limb and bend. He keeps turning the tables on Yamazaki, escaping his holds or countering with a hold of his own to force Yamazaki to the ropes. There are plenty of swank takedowns from both men but the patience and experience of Fujiwara proves to be an advantage over the more aggressive Yamazaki. At one point, Yamazaki is just kneeing the fuck out of Fujiwara's head to try and shake him off the arm but it's Fujiwara, dude, he headbutts for a living. Yamazaki's finally able to grab something, a single leg crab, but Fujiwara breaks the hold and is seemingly pissed off about it, unloading on Yamazaki in the corner with a flurry of old man strikes. He staggers Yamazaki with a slap but Yamazaki's able to deliver a German suplex, failing to bridge the hold as he's dog-tired. Fujiwara sells the suplex and when he's back on his feet, Yamazaki high kicks him in the head to lay him out for the KO. Yamazaki's post-match celebration is the buttercream icing on the cake.
