Dick Togo has Two Bitches Going Down Like the Two Towers

Dick Togo vs. James Mason ASW 8/2/11 - GREAT

Pretty cool that Togo's wrestling encore is working European shows in front of enthusiastic little kids. James Mason is this amazing wrestler who showed up a couple of times in the beginning of the decade, worked one TNA PPV match and fell off the radar. He has been all over youtube lately, and he feels like one of the best wrestlers in the world. He is as slick on the mat as Johnny Saint or Johnny Kidd, but still athletic enough to move around the ring and take big bumps. Togo is working as a foreign evil heel, taunting the fans, talking trash, cheap shotting Mason. Mason is great as a babyface using guile and slickness. Early stuff is very cool with Mason working over Togo's wrist. Togo keeps it pretty simple, nothing flashy, but really plays the crowd well. There are a couple of moments where they speed it up, and Mason really hangs athletically with Togo which isn't easy to do. Not really the kind of match which ends up EPIC, but man did I enjoy this, lets hope we get some more Togo Euro footage, I am not ready to say goodbye.


COMPLETE AND ACCURATE DICK TOGO

Mason plays to the crowd way too much, even when selling. It's distracting. Match was quite good though. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for bringing attention to this. Great little match. While I'm happy for him, it's such a shame that we only have a handful of Togo matches left. He throws 1 of the bets punches in the biz and is still taking wonderful bumps such as the 1 he takes off the 2nd turnbuckle here.
