Six Man Tag Team Match

Kaji Tomato, Kota Sekifuda & Tatsuhiko Yoshino vs. Kazuki Hashimoto, Kosuke Sato & Satsuki Nagao

Okay match with a few nice team spots. Just too short to be much of anything.

1.5 / 5

Six Man Tag Team Match

Ryota Hama, Takuho Kato & Yasufumi Nakanoue vs. Daichi Hashimoto, Kazumasa Yoshida & Kazumi Kikuta

Another super quick match but this time without any good moments.

.5 / 5

Weapon Bringing Death Match

Jaki Numazawa & Yuichi Taniguchi vs. Masaya Takahashi & Ryuji Ito

A very slow and boring tag death match. Wasn’t too long and everyone moved just slow and sluggish.

1 / 5

Barbed Wire Board Death Match

Abdullah Kobayashi & Takumi Tsukamoto vs. Daiju Wakamatsu & Yuki Ishikawa

Another sluggish deathmatch. The spots of jumping off the top rope onto the board barbed wire face up was just dumb. Not fun at all here.

1 / 5

BJW Tag Team Title Match

Astronauts (Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura) (c) vs. Strong BJ (Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi)

A 30 minute tag is a hard thing to do and this had its ups and down. Taking it the time limit had the crowd going but a lot of this just felt slow. Towards the end it picked up some and came to a close call but this was just okay.

2.5 / 5

Bloody Musou Tournament First Round Pushpin Death Match

Yuko Miyamoto vs. Michio Kageyama

It had its moment but similar to all the other deathmatches tonight it was slow and sluggish. Just felt like nothing was ever a big moment.

2 / 5

Bloody Musou Tournament First Round Rain Over Sky Death Match

Isami Kodaka vs. Hideyoshi Kamitani

Finally a better deathmatch. Some good spots and that ladder knee jump looked nuts and like it hurt. A bit slow in between some spots but a solid deathmatch to end the lackluster show.

3 / 5
