AMAKUSA, Atsushi Kotoge, Hajime Ohara & Junta Miyawaki vs. HAYATA, Tadasuke, YO-HEY & Yuto Kikuchi

[6.0] "Not sure why people disliked this so much. Not a masterpiece but it was solid and Kikuchi looked good from what I saw. He does look a little too much like a chubbier SHO but the grimyness fits in with RATELS ***"

[3.0] "I think that Kikuchi fits into RATEL's well, but that's all I can say. The HAYATA portions are interminable as always."

[5.0] "As bland and boring as HAYATA is, I enjoyed the other members of RATELS here, including Kikuchi who had a good amount of personality to him. Kotoge came in pretty viciously which was cool to see, and AMAKUSA continues to be enjoyable, it is just a shame they took the belt off him so soon. Overall this was pretty enjoyable but was definitely worked at a slower pace than I had hoped and with less excitement to match. Kotoge was really the star of the show I would say, his performance was really good here and he clearly has something to prove after his N-1 injury. Unfortunately it was Kotoge who ate the pin after being hit with a spectacular dropkick from YO-HEY. A pretty good bout let down by a bizarre choice in loser."
