| 1 | 08.10.2026 | DarkPrince | 8.0 | Die Matches, bis zu den Tournament Matches waren allesamt absolut in Ordnung. Die Turnier Matches haben mir dann persönlich alle gut gefallen. Die Show hier war genau das Beispiel dafür, dass eine Wrestling Show von Match zu Match besser werden kann. Nick Wayne vs. Daiki Nagai Kurz aber Gut, genauso wie Titan vs. Ryusuke Taguchi. Beide Matches (***1/2). Akira vs. Valiente Jr. Hat mir auch sehr sehr gut gefallen. Ich finde es immer Cool wenn NJPW Mexikaner in's Best Of The Super Jr. Mit einbaut. Am Ende gewinnt hier Akira, was natürlich Sinn ergibt (****). Und dann kommen für mich 2 Matches die auf Augenhöhe gesehen werden können. Jun Kasai vs. Robbie X muss sich vor dem Main Event echt nicht verstecken und kann mich sogar mit einigen Hardcore Wrestling Elementen, ziemlich beeindrucken. Jun Kasai bringt einfach Frische in dieses Turnier und neben dem Spot Wrestling auch noch was anderes mit in's Turnier (****1/2). Main Event dann natürlich auch Mega stark und ein guter Abschluss dieses BOSJ Tages. Insgesamt gebe Ich der gesamten Show, 8 Punkte. Konnte mich wirklich sehr unterhalten. |

| 5 | 04.08.2026 | giannists | 8.0 | It was a good enough event especially in the last part.The best match of the day was the main event and it was great with Wato scoring a huge win and give an answer to what Fujita said about him. |

| 8 | 13.06.2026 | Maui | | Overall a solid bunch of BoSJ matches with Akira vs. Valiente Jr. and the MOTN Wato vs. Fujita. Fujita really puts up quality matches. No wonder he is almost in every main event match keeping the quality. Another constant in this year's BoSJ tournament is the curse of the underperforming semi main event, which hurt the quality of the event. This time it was especially bad with a stinker of a match between Kasai and Robbie X. Just 3 points there. Referees also continue to be the biggest joke in New Japan. |

| 11 | 03.06.2026 | arrancar | 5.0 | There was only 1 match really worth checking out on this show, but it was thankfully the MOTT thus far, so that's the silver lining on another pretty mediocre 2026 BOSJ show. Wayne vs Nagai was okay but too short to feel complete. Nagai had decent energy and scrappiness, while Wayne was quite pedestrian but still decent. **1/4. Taguchi vs Titan would've been quite good with more time. I enjoyed the grappling-vs-grappling approach, with Titan being speedier and flashier but Taguchi more methodical and gritty. They also had a fun story of intermittently trying to match each other move for move, though never to the point that it felt cheesy. Good chemistry the whole way, especially in the 2nd half. ***. Akira vs Valiente was alright. Valiente has a few too many spots and transitions that are a bit too contrived, but he still had some nice execution and creativity at points. Akira was fun all around, as he easily matched Valiente's high-flying exchanges and also had some nicely aggressive beatdown work to keep things fresh. ***. Kasai vs X was okay. It was more of the same from Kasai and his bag of death-match tricks, though at least X offered something interesting in response with his flashy acrobatics. X's set-ups remain often contrived, but his bumps are all good at least. Kasai still has pretty weak wrestling fundamentals, but he managed to make this match into a moderately fun spectacle with the introduction of the ladder, which led to some cool spots. **3/4. Wato vs Fujita really surprised me by being MOTT thus far. Both guys have a lot to prove still -- Wato especially, given he's been such a nonentity for so long -- but everything clicked here, from the incoming story of them both wishing to prove themselves as the superior ex-BOSJ winner and the next future junior ace, to Wato's newfound jump in aggression, and to both guys' strong selling and offence. Their chemistry was good the whole way, especially as their pace picked up, leading to some really good big moves at the end. Wato's awesome lariat was a massive exclamation point to push the match into the next level. ***1/2 |

| 17 | 30.05.2026 | Rossg17 | 6.0 | Gedo & Taiji Ishimori vs Taisei Nakahara & Tatsuya Matsumoto: A fine tag team match to get the show started, nothing memorable happened, had house show vibes with it as it had average standard action [*3/4]. Jakob Austin Young & Zane Jay vs Daisuke Sasaki & Masatora Yasuda: Served as a preview match for JAY versus Sasaki the following show, the match was average if I am being honest [**]. Hartley Jackson, Robbie Eagles & Ryohei Oiwa vs Tiger Mask, Toru Yano & YOH: Mask continues to be on his retirement tour and the match was okay at best, just a standard preview multi man tag match [**]. El Desperado, Hyo & KUSHIDA vs Dick Togo, SHO & Yoshinobu Kanemaru: Did not like this match much which was not surprising given HoT was involved [*1/4]. Nick Wayne vs Daiki Nagai: A short match featuring Nagai who continues to try and improve but Wayne winning this one was obvious, though the match was alright for the 5 minutes this went on for [**]. Titan vs Ryusuke Taguchi: A fine match between these two, with Taguchi involved this was never gonna be serious and Titan submitted Taguchi for the win [**1/4]. Francesco Akira vs Valiente Jr: Valiente continues to showcase lucha libre in a decent enough way, Akira getting the win was fine but would like to have seen Valiente get the win here, the match was decent enough [***]. Jun Kasai vs Robbie X: An interesting one here, the weapons being brought into play here were not surprising given Kasai was in this match, a few decent weapons spots including the ladder spots, Kasai still proving he can mix it up with anyone even if he is 52 years old, X gave a decent enough fight [***1/2]. Master Wato vs Kosei Fujita: A great main event match on the show, they know how to put on great showings, my only complaint personally is they could have gone another 5 or 10 minutes to really showcase what they can do, but for the 14 minutes they had they still put on a good match [***3/4] |

| 21 | 29.05.2026 | Robert Taylor | 7.0 | Insgesamt auf jeden Fall ein Tag, den man sich komplett geben kann, jedenfalls die Turniermatches. Undercard war soweit ok aber es passiert nichts wichtiges. Wayne vs. Nagai und Taguchi vs. Titan fand ich in Ordnung. Titan marschiert ordentlich und daher denke ich, dass jetzt indessen 2 Niederlagen kommen werden. Akira vs. Valiente war unterhaltsam, Kasei vs. Robbie erst wunderschön bekloppt aber dann auch wrestlerisch echt cool. Wato vs. Fujita im Main Event MOTN, beide geben von der ersten Sekunde an Gas, hat mir echt gut gefallen. |

| 37 | 23.05.2026 | SkyIcons | 6.0 | Solid BOSJ show. Fujita vs Wato was amazing, maybe the MOTT so far, kinda saved this show, in a way. |
| 38 | 23.05.2026 | ZooWee | 6.0 | Certainly a step up from the past few days of the tournament. A decently entertaining undercard highlighted by a really fun match between Robbie X and Jun Kasai and a fantastic main event between Fujita and Wato which stands as one of the best matches of the tournament so far. MOTN - Kosei Fujita vs. Master Wato |
| 39 | 22.05.2026 | Grissom | 7.0 | Tag 5 des BOSJ bot 3 ordentliche Matches an, wo vorallem der Main Event und Robbie gegen Kasai überzeugen konnten. Valiente gegen Akira war auch solide. |
| 40 | 22.05.2026 | Amaury08 | 6.0 | Not the best match show so far, but a solid show, the undercard was ok and the Main Event was great. |
| 41 | 22.05.2026 | KingOfTheLariat | 6.0 | Gedo & Taiji Ishimori vs. Taisei Nakahara & Tatsuya Matsumoto" solider Opener. Die Young Lions dürfen ein wenig was zeigen, aber sonst keine besonderen Höhepunkte. "Daisuke Sasaki & Masatora Yasuda vs. Jakob Austin Young & Zane Jay" kurzes schnelles Match. Okay, aber nichts besonderes. "Tiger Mask, Toru Yano & YOH vs. Hartley Jackson, Robbie Eagles & Ryohei Oiwa" gutes Six Man Tag Team Match. Typisches New Japan Undercard Match. "El Desperado, Hyo & KUSHIDA vs. Dick Togo, SHO & Yoshinobu Kanemaru" mal ein gutes Six-Man-Tag-Team Match mit House of Torture. Beste Match der Undercard. "Nick Wayne vs. Daiki Nagai" solides Match, was aber nicht so gut war, wie die letzten Matches von Nick Wayne. "Ryusuke Taguchi vs. Titan" Taguchi zeigt in diesen Turnier, dass er ein echt guter Wrestler ist und nicht nur ein Comedy Act. Gutes Match. "Francesco Akira vs. Valiente Jr." Schnelles Match und beide Wrestler passten auch gut zusammen und hatten eine gute Chemie miteinander. "Jun Kasai vs. Robbie X" hier gab es viele Hardcore Elemente durch Kasai. War eine schöne Abwechslung in der Card und ein echt gutes Match. "Master Wato vs. Kosei Fujita" intensiv geführtes Match und starker Main Event. Fazit: Solider Turnier Tag |
