[3.0] "A lot of this show stunk greatly. Thankfully there was salvation at the end with one good 3-way and a climatic junior-style main event. Atsushi Kotoge -vs- Kenou -vs- Masa Kitamiya – (3-Way) [** 1/4] Finally someone that’s showed up to work on a otherwise lazy show! These guys wanted to show that there was some life left in NOAH, even if this would naturally been better had it been either a singles bout or a tag. 3-ways are not NOAH’s thing even if they did 3 of them on this show. Taiji Ishimori (c) -vs- YO-HEY – (GHC Junior Title) [** 3/4] The build-up was so-so, but they weren’t slacking it. The final 3-4 minutes on the other hand was close to great! That’s when the big moves landed. Most spectacular being Ishimori’s moonsaulting powerslam standing on the top rope! The climax portion really worked and saved the overall impression of what a long while felt like a very poor Korakuen Hall show."
