Great Match of the Day: Karl Anderson v. Hiroshi Tanahashi

I’m sure from time to time, I pimp matches online to people and call them MOTYC’s and what not, when in reality they’re more of the “pretty good” variety as opposed to the “HOLY SHIT” variety. But this Tanahashi vs. Anderson match is the real friggin’ deal. A legitimate front runner for MOTY. So glad I avoided W.O.N. & spoilers for the last week.. Goddamn this match is amazing…

You know, if NJPW would produce an English commentary version of these and air them at a decent time, I’d be more than happy to drop $20 on one of their IPPVs, because they’ve all delivered thus far. And this match was far better than that overrated **1/4 Bryan-Punk indy geekfest from Over the Limit.  Who wants to see submission moves in 2012?
