10. "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs CIMA (For CIMA's BoLA '07 Title Match) - DRAW,
Ref bump happened and second ref came out. AmDrag made CIMA tap to crossface chicken wing as CIMA was on top of him and pinned his shoulders to the mat. Original ref saw CIMA tap as 2nd ref counted Danielson's shoulders to the mat, both refs declared each man the winner. No final decision was announced as to which man won and Danielson walked out after Commissioner Dino WInwood asked for 5 more minutes. Spectacular match up to the caliber of last year's encounter.
NOTE: After the show CIMA announced that Dragon Gate "Maybe" will come and do a show in Los Angeles with the entire roster this year. He also said PWG will be doing a show next year in Osaka Japan.
I was actually at night two, and it was my first PWG experience. I gotta say, it was an incredible show. The crowd was getting a little burned out towards the end (it was about three and a half hours of action with a 15 minute intermission), but Danielson/CIMA brought them back to life. The dueling "Let's go Dragon/Let's go CIMA" chant alone at the beginning of the match was one of the longest I've ever heard, and I'm proud to have been a part of it. Midway thru that match some random guy yelled out "CIMA!" which prompted myself and another guy to yell out "Dragon!", and a whole other dueling chant was started.
Overall, great show, great atmosphere, and I picked up the best of Alex Shelley in Japan whilst there.
