Just saw the Sabin/Kanji match, and it was an awesome match. Both competitors put up a hell of a fight, and Sabin proved he was legit.
Though I wonder which way the Drac/Armstrong plot is going. With Dracula out of commission, who's going to be next to challenge the Senator?
It'd be cool if this is leading up to Armstrong vs. Ganondorf. The Lord of Darkness returns to avenge his one-time tag partner, and show the VGCW that Ganon's here to stay. I'd rather not see Armstrong's first taste of success and momentum be immediately sacrificed to the merciless, ultra-accomplished force that is Ganon.
Write-up Anyway, another fantastic show TOH. There were a bunch of fun little things in this episode, like Kefka's dozen headbutts and thematically winning in the sand ring with the Sandworm. The Birds of Prey's success surprised me at first, but upon watching the recording without distractions it's clear that Ezio was seriously kicking ass and taking names. Barret & Flint got a taste of their own medicine tonight and Falcon was able to pull off the victory even when Ezio started freaking out. On the other hand, the bonks did get Flint further away from Barret, so maybe Ezio had a plan -- perhaps needlessly complicated and risky, but a plan nonetheless. Either way, a great showing and win for the Birds. DK's ring work and song stubbornness is making him look like a real douche lately, but Toejam's style brightened things up fast as hell. Seriously, that one of the best matches TJ's ever had, and Jimmy Lee was no slouch either. Also, it was freaking hilarious when Jimmy Deadly Drived Toejam then immediately set himself up for one, like he thought it was honorable or just plain fun.
Bison and Travis had a great match as expected of both men, though I was honestly surprised that Travis was in the Casual contention. After defeating Donte at End Game X I was sure that Touchdown had broken into the top card at last. Oh well, the match was neat and I loved how Bison instantly punished Travis' taunt with a Psycho Crusher. I'm glad that was made into a gif because I think we've seen the best "bad time to taunt" of all time. Still, Travis bounced back and made Bison look really gassed, but the Dictator was either feigning it or got a second wind just in time to shut down Darkside Mode. I'm looking forward to seeing Bison battle Groose.
Snake wasn't kidding when he said he was dedicating his next match to Fox because that was an unprecedented slaughter of Guile. Snake even used the Stealth Rider on the flag burner and the weapons had a superb handling and effect. Solid improvised on a dime even with the chair that got swatted down, and the Super IlliDDT on Guile's own cane was just an amazing finale; not even Guile's insane hair could save him from Snake. We might need a Guile Memorial Battle Royal after that match.
Finally, an unlikely match-up made for a phenomenal spectacle in the main event. Sabin was hellbent on defending the title and proving that he deserved a place in VGCW, trouncing Kanji throughout the first song. However, Kanji was just as determined to be champion and used his Comeback to start a proper comeback and kept things even until the closing bell. Both blondes busted out every trick and tactic they had to keep/get the title, even innovating on the fly and unleashing secret weapons like Sabin's own version of Catastrophe. Really, Sabin and Kanji brought the best out of each other, and nowhere was that more evident than both of them kicking out of each others' second Finisher. My only complaint is that I'd have liked to see Sabin do a few more moves in the final stretch, but the few he did turned out to be vital and ultimately that was exactly the match both men needed. In fact, it was the perfect match for the brand new title as well, instantly making it respectable and worthy of the hype.
On the plot side of things, it was great to see Dr. Mario's proper debut, Kefka hit it out of the park again, and Arino's segment was really neat. The appearance by Tony Hawk was a nice little way to underline how the three shows are a bit more connected now too.
Overall, this was another great night.

That Guile squash was amazing. I don't think Guile has been trashed that badly since his match with Ashley, has he?

Groose should only be allowed to fight Gods for the casual belt. First Kefka, now Bison. Much better to see Groose's schoolyard Bully personality absolutely trashing immortal deities.
