BoboBrazil Posted April 17, 2004 Report Posted April 17, 2004 Kazushi Miyamoto, Tomoaki Honma, Masayuki Kono, and Taichi Ishikari
Guest JebusNassedar Posted April 17, 2004 Report Posted April 17, 2004 Kono doesnt ring a bell, but Miyamoto and Honma are the best god damned tag team since the Funks toured Japan. They form Turmeric Storm, and are incredible workers. Honma also has an extensive deathmatch background, having the only "good" deathmatches I've ever seen against Ryuji Yamakawa. Definately a man worth looking into. They had a great match with Ring of Honor's CM Punk and Colt Cabana at RoH Final Battle 2003. And for Ishikari...well, he got into the Super J Cup, so he's gotta be good, right? Then again, it was a shitty J cup...cant have it all, though. This is just MY opinion, though.
Tawren Posted April 17, 2004 Report Posted April 17, 2004 Miyamoto and Honma make up Tumeric Storm, they are good -> great at times. One of their best matches as a team was against Colt Cabana and CM Punk on 12/27/03 Final Battle 2003.
BoboBrazil Posted April 18, 2004 Author Report Posted April 18, 2004 Cool. These guys are gonna be in the next X cup for TNA.
Guest Jimbo Posted April 18, 2004 Report Posted April 18, 2004 What are some good Tumeric Storm matches besides the Final Battle 2003 one? I was at that RoH show live and I thought it was a pretty good match as well, but are there any others I should especially look out for?
Guest Black Tiger Posted April 18, 2004 Report Posted April 18, 2004 Turmeric Storm vs ROWDY (Kohei Sato and Hirotaka Yoki from the AJPW 7/23/03 PPV was pretty good. I hear TS get pimped a whole lot, but it seems like on the big shows they're always split up in singles matches or one is in a six man tag.
Guest Shuriken Posted April 23, 2004 Report Posted April 23, 2004 Turmeric Storm were a good little tag-team, sadly they just recently split during the Champ Carnival tour due to being crushed in their trial series. Miyamoto is a great prospect, but really needs to calm down on the WWE influence (both moveset-wise AND theme music-wise...). Kono and Ishikari are still both green, but improving at a fast rate. Ishikari is THE hope for All Japan's Jr heavyweight division... if they ever get serious about building one up. I'd suggest checking out his match with Yoshihito Sasaki from ZERO ONE's Fire Festival 2003.

Guest Shuriken Posted April 23, 2004 Report Posted April 23, 2004 He uses a Swanton bomb as one of his main finishers, uses the Evolution theme music and even does the Triple H water-spitting deal sometimes.
