Astro101 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 So the two number one contenders are really just contenders to become contenders for the world title? Oh well, at least Killings is up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnonymousBroccoli 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 Is Nosawa any good? I know I've seen him on the Super X show, and the one 2 weeks later, but I can't remember his work at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TDinDC1112 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 so the #1 contender has to win 2 matches to get a title shot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucharesuFan619 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 I don't know what you're talking about, dude... Nosawa is fucking BOSS. He's incredibly underrated. I first got exposed to him while he was in XPW and in XPW, he was able to get entertaining matches out of talentless guys like POGO THE CLOWN. The guy is an awesome wrestler. If you've seen B-Boy, picture him, only a little bit more foreign of a style. His finisher is the Nosawa Driver (Michinoku Driver II) and he loves Superkicks, the Camel Cutch, Uppercuts, Missile Dropkicks, Basement Dropkicks (especially), and Shining Wizards. He had some tremendous matches in XPW, MLW, and TNA, and his CZW submission match with Nick Berk was pretty cool too. I love the guy to death...sorry for the rant, but I don't know how you couldn't like him, LOL. He's SO cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 I've heard good things about NOSAWA but his TNA matches have fucking sucked. All he did were kicks and I believe a German suplex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoboBrazil 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 All I've seen is his TNA stuff so that is what I'm judging it on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silence 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 The only move I can think of when the name "Nosawa" comes up is a basement dropkick. Other than that, he doesn't have a good moveset at all from what I've seen of his TNA work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted March 20, 2004 Beaten by a few people, but I'll chime in that judging only his NWA-TNA work, he is worse than Sonjay Dutt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
