It's a shame Kandori and Aja never had a singles match. Feels pretty evident from this that it would've been, you know...good. I guess we'll always have this though, which was, you know...good. It's a week after Hokuto/Kandori so tempers are still through the roof. You expect their exchanges to rule and they do. Hokuto is one of the best ever at making a submission hold feel like the most lethal thing in the world. She had that shoulder taped up from the singles match and was frantic whenever Kandori tried to grab it, just wildly kicking and bucking to get to the ropes. All of her offence had that extra bit of meat behind it as well, like her senton to the floor that wasn't the least bit graceful yet looked all the more impactful because of it. I've always been sort of whatever on her, but it's not too difficult to understand why some folk think she's an all-timer. Kandori/Aja ruled. Kandori will start shit with anybody and at the beginning Aja was mostly trying to separate her and Hokuto. As soon as Kandori opened her mouth to Aja that was it, Aja was livid and now it was personal. There was one bit where Kandori was overly eager to get at Hokuto despite Aja being the legal woman, so Aja just suplexed her on her head as a wake up. Kandori would try to break up an Aja submission by knocking her about the head, but Aja refused to let go and give her the satisfaction. As good as they were together there was still a sense that they had an extra gear to move up, which makes the fact it never led to a singles match even more disappointing. Lots of niggliness, lots of nastiness, everybody getting uncooperative with everybody else, a great finish - this was the interpromotional pro-wrestling.
