Saturday Spotlight highlights the wacky and wonderful word of professional wrestling, from WWE, NJPW, the independents and everywhere else. I intend to find the best content available to further exhibit why wrestling is the best form of sports enteraintment in the world. Welcome to the ‘Saturday Spotlight’! Enjoy
In 2014 many NOAH/Japanese wrestling fans were overjoyed when KENTA signed with WWE, finally a wider audience had the chance to see why he was arguably one of the best wrestlers walking the planet. KENTA enjoyed huge succes in Japan and in vists to ROH and other independent promotions, therefore due to WWE’s change in attitudes towards technical, hard hitting wrestlers the timing could not have been better. It’s fair to say that we have only seen glimpses of KENTA’s talents in NXT/WWE, either via injury or WWE not knowing how to present him he has at times failed to convince the doubters. When the shackles are off KENTA can work with the best, his matches with Oney Lorcan, Chris Hero and recently Tozawa in WWE have demonstrated this.
So to convince the doubter’s I want to remind everyone why KENTA is so good with a few exmples of some classic matches from his time in NOAH and the indy’s, Please, Enjoy.
