NJPW G1 CLIMAX 29 [Day Thirteen & Fourteen Review]: DestinWHOA!

DAY THIRTEEN - A BLOCK – Bad Luck Fale v KENTA - Bad Match Fale needed a roll-up to defeat 205 Live's Hideo Itami! Need I say more? No, but I will. To KENTA's credit, he was able to pull one of the better matches in this tourney out of the Worst Wrestler of 2019. …

AEW FIGHT FOR THE FALLEN [Review]: Boing!
