My new favorite of the trilogy and a solid MOTYC, even if 2014 was a curiously weak year for wrestling.
There was some flashy offense near the end here but this is a surprisingly minimalist G1 bout with an old school heel favorite vs. scrappy underdog vibe, primarily built around Styles working over Naito's reopened cut. Some of the transitions weren't optimal but the deliberate pace allowed things to breathe and the selling was on point.
