Singles Match
Horshu vs. Daisuke Sekimoto
Zero-1 Fire Festival 2001 Night 3
Note that the picture above isn’t from this match but how could I not use it.
Well then this is certainly a match ain’t it? Not gonna lie, it’s short and that’s why I picked it.
Daisuke may have still been pretty new to the business, he’s smaller in size, and he’s decked out in the traditional Young Lions gear, which is basic black everything. He looks impressive though. He jumps Horsu with a Tope before the match even starts. He takes control for a bit then Horshu counters his attempt at something. There’s a quick edit and Horshu is working rest holds. Goddamnit.
In between these rest spots, he does pull out a Bubba Bomb and a Double Underhook Suplex. Both look good for what it’s worth. Daisuke tries to rally back with a Spear and a number of Lariats but he has a role to play so that doesn’t last long. He kicks out of a Rolling DDT but a Rope Walk Elbow Drop and some type of Sidewalk Slam variation seals the deal a minute or two later for Horshu.
Eh, good match. I don’t remember Luther Reigns from a in-ring standpoint so I didn’t have exceptions going into this. I was certainly hoping for a dumpster fire but it’s just a quick solid match. The Young Lion looks promising and Horshu looks dominant. Mission accomplished.
