I’ve always
taken a liking to the British style mat wrestling and those who have traveled
over to the States demonstrating that style.
For me it started with William Regal and grew to include Fit Finlay,
Dave Taylor, Doug Williams, and now Zack Sabre Jr. Honestly he is one of my favorites to watch
right now and he has had some unbelievable matches in Pro Wrestling
Guerrilla. All of these matches I
watched on You Tube and I have also included some PWG highlight clips….Enjoy.

Zack Sabre
Jr vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
The match
starts at the roughly the 12 minute mark as this is the entire episode and not
just the match. The first 12 minutes
features a decent build towards the Summer Sizzler 2015 and a nice video
package for High Stakes 2014.
This match
is significant not just because of the men involved but because they were both
current champions. Sabre was 1/2 of the
Pro Wrestling NOAH Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion and Nakamura was in his
3rd reign as the New Japan IWGP Intercontinental Champion.
Action
starts in the ring with both men exchanging some solid mat wrestling. Sabre gets the better of Nakamura who takes
it to the floor gaining the upper hand with some brawling tossing Sabre into the
stands. Once back in the ring it stayed
there with both men showing why they are two of the best wrestlers in the world
today.
It won't let me link to match above as I did Evolve below, here's the link: Zack Sabre Jr. vs Shinsuke Nakamura

Zack Sabre
Jr vs. Sami Callihan
Sami
Callihan just spent the past couple years floundering in NXT as Solomon Crowe before
asking for and getting his release in November 2015. He has quickly returned to the independent scene
winning the 2CW Championship just 5 days after his release.
Sami
Callihan was featured in an excellent documentary by Kenny Johnson called “They
Came For Stiff” so as you can imagine these two brought “the stiff” kicking and
clubbing the tar out of each other. Not
only that but it featured some great mat wrestling, false finishes and pin
reversals that had me going. Great,
great match, worth checking out

Zack Sabre
Jr vs. Yoshinobu Kanemaru
I don’t know
who Kanemaru is, but this match Sabre is excellent. It is a great back and forth match showing
the skills of both competitors. It’s
solid.
