I'm going to go on record and say that Mochizuki's performance is the greatest I've ever seen inside a wrestling ring. His intensity, his selling, his comebacks, his athleticism, there is literally nothing I can critique about his performance. Shingo for his part was awesome as the big bad bully, being an overall bastard to Mochizuki and constantly throwing bombs to try to stifle Mochizuki's comebacks. Those little moments of Shingo inviting Mochizuki to hit him were awesome, mainly because Shingo's character at this time was the top dog in Dragon Gate and always went on about purging the weak from DG, and seeing Mochizuki throw it back in his face is just so satisfying. This would finish high in my list, probably top ten.

Second. Tremendous bombfest and the absolute pinnacle of the Dragon Gate style (second only to Blood Generation vs. Do Fixer, of course). Big moves, breakneck speed, and plenty of drama. One of the best matches of 2015 and may very well have been the best had it not been for Nakamura-Ibushi.

Thirded. Overateed as fuck match imo. The first reason is the lack of realism like yeah shingos punches and masaakis kicks were good.But some strikes sucked. This felt like a bloated movefest to me. Not true urgency or struggle. The dvd at apron was sold like nothing and they killed time with slow limbwork that was filler. The rope running was your usual preditable stuff. The crowd didnt recated in a big way. The narrative the mochizuki wasnt gonna stay down was fine. But the million laraits were overkill. The enviorment made this hollow and the first half didnt settled things and was boring as fuck. The techinques werent good. And mochizuki selling then running ropes full speed was bad good match overall 79 percent .but i am not into the dg style much

There's nothing more terrifying in pro wrestling than Shingo Takagi running. He's just so fast that you feel he's gonna make his opponent explode if he connects the lariat/shoulder tackle he's going for. Mochizuki's performance is god tier, as he looks ready for the ultimate test. One of the best bombfests of all time and a great use of super fast pacing.

Not really my thing. I get why folks would like it though.
