Yagi was great in this match. She made everyone look better, and that's really what being great is all about. Yabushita seemed to be learning from Yagi, and they seemed to work well as a team. The match was fast-paced with a lot of judo moves if you can picture that. These women don't really do anything that looks like judo anymore in that they glitz up the judo spots so much and do them so fluidly that they are great high spots, but not really reminiscent of their old sport. This is not in any way a bad thing though. I mean, both Sakai and Yabushita have surpassed Kashin when it comes to incorporating cool looking submissions into a junior style match. This seemed like a very good match, but it was really hacked up. Sakai
pinned Yabushita with her nadare shiki no Frankensteiner to advance
to the finals. I really wanted to see Yagi and Yabushita win, but on
the other hand, I'm glad that Yagi is pretty much only concentrating
on ARSION because that's the style she's most suited for and they aren't
as screwed up as some of these other leagues. 12:46 (4:35 aired) |
