Chigusa Nagayo vs Devil Masami (AJW - 4/15/1987)

Not surprising, this is an absolutely fantastic match between two of the best wrestlers of their generation. Devil was the best working heel of 80s Joshi (Dump is something altogether different) and Chigusa was in the middle of an all time in ring babyface run. So this was basically guaranteed to be great when I saw it on the matchlist and they delivered. They both brought high end offense with some great suplexes and Devil absolutely killed Chigusa with a couple of powerbombs. Devil also brings all sorts of great little heel touches like overly stiff knees and slaps and one great spot where she lifts Chigusa up with one hand on her throat and when on grabbing her hair. It is a nasty heel spot. Finish is wild as Devil grabs a big metal pipe and leaps off the top rope hitting Chigusa on the floor at ringside on her head. Devil breaks the pipe on the ringside barrier while chasing Chigusa around basically leaving her with a giant spear. Chigusa eventually gets a chair and its dueling weapons and the match is thrown out. This was really terrific but if they had worked like 5 more minutes of just crazy brawling & bleeding it'd be a lock for top 50.

quick edit I forgot when I watched the match I wanted to mention that Devil Masami might have the best facial expressions of anyone in wrestling. Its between her, Satanico & Regal. Her acting, selling & facial expressions are a bit part of what makes her, and this match truly great.
