5/26/74

IWA World Heavyweight Title Next Challenger Decision Match, Japan Representative Showdown: Rusher Kimura vs. Great Kusatsu

Cage Death Match: Billy Robinson & Mighty Inoue vs. Rene Goulet & Sailor White 4+ min shown. Something of a brawl, but Robinson still wrestles despite it being a cage match, throwing his usual suplexes.

6/3/74 Korakuen Hall, 2/3 Falls IWA World Heavyweight Title Decision Match: Rusher Kimura vs. Billy Robinson 11+ min shown. Robinson worked miracles here to make this an entertaining match. Kimura isn't athletic & is a really awkward mover who has no idea how to strike properly (he doesn't use his core he just twists at the waist), but as long as he gave Robinson a body part, he was able to twist him in pretzles. They seemingly kept the pace up, & Robinson did his running spots & throws (including the belly to belly to the floor) and took big bumps to mask Rusher as much as possible. It still wasn't good most of the time when Rusher was on offense because, well, one can only do so much to make something that's not well done look less not well done, but overall it appeared to be a success.

11/20/74 Tokyo Kuramae Kokugikan, 2/3 Falls AWA World Heavyweight Title Match: Verne Gagne vs. Billy Robinson 35:44 [20:48, 5:21, 9:35]. Intense, riveting, first rate no frills title match from two of the best in the world. There's a different dynamic here than in Robinson's later Japan matches because it's much more Gagne's style, & Gagne is often leading & even the one who is inciting the opponent to build the tensions, starting early with petty torments such as putting his hand on Robinson's head. Robinson is still very obviously the better of the two, but it's the match Gagne has been working for two decades with some updates as time goes by rather than the futuristic match Robinson would become known for that had quicker counters & a lot more tumbling. It's a better worked technical match than Robinson vs. Inoki from a classic perspective, & certainly the difference between even an old Verne and a prime Inoki is night & day, but the Inoki match is a lot more modern & certainly more believable from a 21st century perspective because the technical style there is primitive wannabe MMA whereas this relies mainly on all those silly pro wrestling one point of control locks such as the headlock, bear hug, and no body control sleeper that never had any real world application. Robinson dominated the opening fall by getting off first, particularly when it came to immediately attacking the arm when they locked up, clubbing it with a punch or spinning into a hammerlock. Gagne grew increasingly testy, and tried to taunt Robinson into mixing it up through cheap shots while they are moving, little slaps, eye gouges, and paws until Robinson lost his cool enough to get caught off guard by a shoulderblock that briefly turned the tide. Gagne just wasn't hanging with Robinson in the slow technical exchanges though, and couldn't initiate more than the momentary running exchange, but nonetheless managed to win the 1st fall out of nowhere when he ducked behind & took Robinson out with his sleeper. The 2nd was a more active fall for Robinson that featured more of his bumping. Robinson hadn't come close to recovering when the 2nd fall started, and nearly got sleepered right off the bat, but dove for dear life to the safety of the ropes. Gagne's path to victory was even clearer than usual though, and he was always ready to pounce on the sleeper anytime Robinson left an opening, for instance when Robinson got up slowly after missing a dropkick. However, this was obvious to Robinson too, and in an excellent story finish, he was ready next time, turning the sleeper attempt into his backbreaker to take the 2nd fall. As is often the case with Robinson's 3 fall matches, the finish of a fall winds up defining at least the beginning of the next fall. Thus, Robinson was now in control focusing on the back he injured with the backbreaker, pushing to get a quick victory with the bear hug and hitting another backbreaker that would have finished Gagne if Verne wasn't so close to the ropes. Gagne continued to withstand back submissions, and even a backbreaker in the center of the ring that should have been the finish. You felt this was going to have an amazing climax, wondering whether Gagne was going to be really oportunistic or if Robinson would plug away on the back until it busted, but since it's the '70's you should know better, and instead they did a cheesy double KO off a shoulderblock. Ugh. What an unfitting climax to such a scintilating match. ****

11/21/74 Osaka Furitsu Taiikukaikan, 2/3 Falls IWA & AWA World Heavyweight Double Title Match: Verne Gagne (AWA champ) vs. Mighty Inoue (IWA champ) about 7 1/2 min shown. Now in his late 40's, Gagne is the heel trying to slow things down and find the opening for his sleeper going. It's now the opposition who is the athletic babyface that wants to push the pace and seems (in this highly clipped form) to only score with aerial moves. Inoue even takes Gagne out with his rolling senton in the 2nd fall. Gagne still throws a nice dropkick, but in this form, it plays like the established junior against the up and coming junior, with Gagne allowing his fiery young athletic opponent to shine by providing the vast majority of the flashy highspots. Good stuff before the requisite double ring out.

1/6/75

Great Kusatsu vs. Bob Orton Sr.

Danny Lynch & Butcher Lynch vs. Rusher Kimura & Mighty Inoue

3/9/75 Cage Death Match: Rusher Kimura vs. The Wildman. About 5 min shown. Bloody brawl. Wildman lumbered around like Stan Hansen, but showed no actual skill, mainly using foreign objects. Rusher worked over Wildman's taped left arm and used the object back. Rusher's piledrivers were virtually the only wrestling move of the bout.
