Another great card. Takada vs. Severn in particular sounds mental. I searched and it happened in real life precisely in Feb. 1993. Rooting for an Albright win over Funaki so the big guy gets a title shot.

I like the realness you've developed. It's about records, and winning and losing, and whose the best fighter. You're new arrivals seem like their destined to leave a mark.

Man, that open challenge issued by Thezs seems something only a madman would accept. So... out of those, I see Akira Maeda stepping up to face Koslowski. Maeda was a killer in the ring.
I expected Gary Albright picking up the win and maybe Severn too. But you had another good show with the most recent members of the roster picking up nice wins.

Albright is kind of unlucky. On a good day he'll defeat anyone with those killer Suplexes, but one the next day he will be submitted by a midcarder.

Takada vs. Takayama and Suzuki vs. Anjo are big bouts. This card is a little less appealing to me than the previous two, but it has my heart won over the matches I mentioned.
