15 Most Insane Wrestling Spots Of The Week (May 21)
Will Ospreay created buzz with a Dragoncanrana and Johnny Gargano took a ladder to the face!
Wrestling has been coming hard and fast from many different angles over the past week. It's a very rewarding endeavor if you have the time to keep up with it all.
A few nights of Super Juniors action has already been underway in New Japan, producing a few standout spots for entirely different reasons. Will Ospreay and Ricochet put on another excellent affair, capped off with one of the slickest Dragoncanranas seen in a while. On the same night, Taichi and Taka Michinoku engaged in a nearly ten-minute match that utilized literally only one move. Those are two insane spots for entirely different reasons and they are featured on this list.
The action wasn't limited to just to NJPW. In addition to the usual round of wrestling shows covered, moves from both WWE's new UK special as well as last night's excellent NXT TakeOver event are included in this edition. There were especially several moments from last night's NXT Tag Title Ladder Match that have to be seen to be believed.
Continue on to see what highlights made the cut.
15. One Kick To Taka's Dangly Bits
While there were a couple of rope kicks that caused some below the belt pain, this kick by Taichi against Taka Michinoku was technically the only actual wrestler on wrestler move from this Best of the Super Juniors matchup. It should also be noted that this bout went almost ten minutes long.
One move in ten minutes - let that sink in. Either this idea was completely brilliant or dumb. I honestly can't really tell.
