5-Star Match Reviews: Mitsuharu Misawa and Jun Akiyama vs. Toshiaki Kawada and Akira Taue – December 6th 1996, by Alex Podgorski
The wrestling style of 1990’s All Japan Pro-Wrestling wasn’t called ‘King’s Road’ for nothing. The wrestlers that performed in that style were simply amazing. So much so that they basically stood head-and-shoulders above pretty much everyone during that decade. But King’s Road wasn’t limited to the famed Four Pillars of Heaven; others were involved as well. This match showcased the newest top-tier AJPW star, and answered the question of whether he belonged in the same conversation as that legendary quartet or not.

TJR Retro: WWF Smackdown 08/10/00 Review
The WWF was on the road to SummerSlam and there was quite a bit of anticipation for this Smackdown because of what happened on Raw. As you may have seen in the Raw review from the same week, Kurt Angle and Triple H pinned Chris Jericho at the same time in a main event triple threat. Who would go on to face The Rock for the WWF Title at SummerSlam 2000? Obviously we know the answer now, but let’s see how the WWF followed up on that controversial finish.

TJR Retro: WWF Raw Deal 08/07/00 Review (Triple H vs. Angle vs. Jericho)
Welcome to another WWF in 2000 review as the WWF was just three weeks away from SummerSlam. The previous week’s Raw had a huge crowd at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta and then this episode of Raw had a big feel to it since it was the World’s Most Famous Arena known as Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Garden Raw’s were always a big deal. They had some big matchups on this show.
TJR: AEW Dynamite 08/05/20 Review (Moxley vs. Allin for AEW World Title)
Welcome to the AEW Dynamite review on TJRWrestling. I’m going with the shortened format for this where I summarize the matches rather than play by play and you still get the usual ratings/analysis. I’ll go full play by play for the main event. This episode was taped last Thursday.
TJR: WWE NXT 08/05/20 Review
Welcome to the WWE NXT review here on TJRWrestling. My apologies for not doing a review last week. Life got busy and I just didn’t have time. It was just an average show. As usual for my NXT reviews, I will be doing a summary of matches and segments along with the analysis/star ratings for every match. I’ll go with a play by play format for the main event match.
