DVD Review : LLPW 31/08/07

LLPW 31/08/07 Korakuen Hall - 15th anniversary of LLPW

Noriyo Tateno, Harley Saito & Takaco Inoue vs Shinobu Kandori, Mizuki Endo & Jumbo Hori

The LLPW originals plus a couple of other veterans start us off. Jumbo is in her weird mushroom outfit again and appears to have a bit of afters with Takaco following the match. Its your usual big star showpiece match with everyone having a chance to show off their moves. 1.5/5

Part 649819 of the TV wrestling series follows, apparently. Lets big up the fast forward button!

Mai Ichii vs Midori

Two youngsters have a go, its a bit like watching toddlers dance on the dance floor while the parents get drunk. Its an OK match, some nice moves but no real personality like most joshi rookie matches. 1/5

Jaguar Yokota & KAZUKI vs Megumi Yabushita & Obacchi Iizuka

An entertaining match with the usual Obacchi silliness, the usual Jaguar furious facial expressions and a few nice wrestling moves, maybe a little more daikon action was needed. 2/5

Yumiko Hotta vs Francoise
Hotta no-sells Francoise's offense. Now she is often criticized for doing stuff like this with rookies but then again in this case Francoise's offense looked as effective as a wet lettuce. The match was really to set up some post-match violence with Hotta and the Blue Wolves beating up the LLPW crew. 0.5/5

Sayuri Okino & Eiger vs DASH Chisako & Sendai Sachiko

LLPW Tag-title match between two of my favourite teams. The Sendai Girls put on a good account for themselves and show why they are among the best young wrestlers around nowadays. Okino and Eiger however are just... Okino and Eiger. And that means brilliant. 3/5


The sisters anxiously await the arrival of the scary white face woman
