Dick Leon-Vrij has one of the best villainous appearances in shoot-style, looking like he was pulled straight from the cast of
Cyborg. Not only does he look like he a heel, he acts the part too, which is interesting for a shoot-style promotion to have such an obvious heel. He’s an absolute dick to Akira Maeda (heh) with his shitty face slaps, blatant chokes, and snarling provocations. He tries to intimidate Maeda with his big action movie roundhouses but he’s also nippy with his kicks and his reaction time is on par with the legendary Jack Burton. He’s able to snatch a foot mid-kick and get a quick takedown. On the mat, however, Maeda’s more skilled and he supplements his groundwork with a couple suplex throws, including what looks like a capture buster. In the end, he catches one of Dick’s kicks, taking him down with a calf hold before transitioning into a single leg crab for the submission victory.
