Takuya Nomura vs. Fuminori Abe (BASARA, 11/26/19)

A 10+ minute slugger with tons of cool stuff you'd expect to see between two spunky astronauts. A little grapple action, plenty of cheeky shots, some neat counters and transitions from Abe - love his dragon screw legwhip and his simple transition into the front necklock. Of course, the fakeout slaps are great, too. Nomura's real shitty to Abe on the ground and throws plenty of suplexes, including a gnarly half nelson that Abe no sells. They ramp up the baseball punches and headbutts during the finishing stretch, until Nomura slaps off an attempt, dragon suplexes Abe and KOs him with the high kick. Nothing fancy, nothing bloated -- just two friends wrasslin' and kicking the shit out of each other.
