Open the Voice Gate - Rewind & Rewatch 28 - Freedom Fight 2011 Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

Welcome back to Open the Voice Gate - Rewind and Rewatch, where Case (https://twitter.com/_inyourcase) and Mike (https://twitter.com/fujiiheya) are Rewinding and Rewatching the Dragon Gate USA era of shows.

The marathon that is DGUSA’s 2011 finally comes to a close on this episode with Freedom Fight 2011, from B.B. King’s Blues Bar and Grill in Manhattan, New York on 11/13/2011!

Before Case and Mike get into the show, they take a look around at how the rest of the wrestling world ended 2011, including Don Fujii in the World Tag League 2011, Final Battle 2011, and Chikara’s first iPPV.

Then it’s time to go to New York for Freedom Fight 2011. Johnny Gargano finally gets his Open the Freedom Gate shot at YAMATO, Akira Tozawa and BXB Hulk bring their tag team to face the Ronin team of Chuck Taylor and Rich Swann, and PAC vs Ricochet’s epic feud of 2011 concludes its US leg. None of those main evented this show. Instead an Extreme Warfare match with the D.U.F. going up against AR Fox, Sabu and Jon Davis did. Yeah, we know.

Concluding the show, we look at how Dragon Gate Japan concluded their year, with the huge Gate of Destiny and Final Gate 2011 shows.

The show review is from 00:17:59 to 01:13:18.
