8 Live Observations From ROH/NJPW Global Wars PPV
2. Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin, Matt Sydal And Kushida Vs. The Bullet Club (Young Bucks And Tama Tonga And Tanga Roa)
Alright, for those of you who haven’t seen the Young Bucks, take notice. These guys are sensational in-ring performers. I’ve seen them quite a few times now, and they never disappoint. The Bullet Club is the faction that’s NWO-like in New Japan, and if you watch WWE, then you know Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows are trying to get AJ Styles back in their club---which was the Bullet Club, formerly. Whether WWE goes this route or not, who knows, but the Bullet Club entrance was awesome, and the crowd marked out hard.
So did I.
I don’t know of a major stable that’s drawn as much attention lately as the Bullet Club. They’ve taken the independent circuit by storm, and now with the WWE angle possibly playing out, it’s garnering a much wider audience.
The match itself was as good as I thought it would be. The Motor City Machine Guns are a good yin to the Buck’s yang, and it was fun to watch them go back and forth. Fast, athletic, and precise with their attacks. There’s not much like this in the WWE right now—certainly not at this pace or precision.
The Young Bucks are over big time. I can tell you that with certainty. They picked up the win and the crowd ate it up. Really solid match.
