Bandido, Noisy Boy, Spider Fly & Zonik vs. Gringo Loco, Vengado, Iron Kid & Turbo: 5.25 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9q4Zvy0IhvM) (Quote from Dave: “This just was filled with 25:26 of all kinds of incredible moves and nonstop. It is probably opening your eyes to what at least the fast-paced move-based style of Lucha Libre will be in five or ten years. The building and crowd reactions reminded me of that era of PWG and the match reminded me of when younger guys would come to PWG and make their names and do everything they could. It is the extreme of big moves style that Dragon Gate ushered in 20 years ago and this is the 20 years later version. It’s not for everyone but it probably will be what a lot of matches look like ten years from now with younger guys. […] This is a match to go out of your way to see.”)

I submitted a ticket to 2K Support about this already on their website, but I just wanted to share this in case there is anyone else experiencing what I have seen. When the characters are in their default attires, the tag team finisher works fine. But in alternate attires, I've been getting this!?

Andrade vs. Yota Tsuji: pretty great match

Konosuke Takeshita vs. Chase Owens: good, not great
