^ While connections is what usually makes a matchup good, there are times when "more connections" don't make a matchup good or better than other thematic ones. (Sometimes,  theme>connections, and sometimes the other way around. It depends on the matchup)

Like imo...Deku vs Lee sound a bit uninteresting to watch (I'd welcome it as a DBX though) not to mention its one-sided as hell in Lee's favor, while Rock Lee vs Sanji sounds more interesting to watch and is more fair.

Other examples are Naruto vs Asta (Black Clover). They have lots of connections but the matchup is still bad at least imo. Same with Sonic vs Lilac or Kratos vs Asura.
