Mei Suruga & Miya Yotsuba vs. Mizuki & SAKI

[6.0] "A fun precursor to the Mei vs SAKI rematch, but also a fairly uneven one with the cool exchanges being offset by some obvious awkwardness and a TERRIBLE scorpion from SAKI ***"

[8.0] "When Miya shines in matches she really shines. And this is another example of that. A clear babyface against SAKI got the crowd super invested."

[8.0] "Sometimes all you need to do in order to be an effective heel is consistently look down on a babyface like they don't belong in the ring with you, SAKI was really good at that here. Something so simple worked as the biggest motivation for Yotsuba to keep getting up and fight back - she was trying her back and Suruga was helping her as much as she could (Suruga's presence has noticeably improved since she beat Sakura in Korakuen, she looked like an equal to both SAKI and Mizuki here), it just wasn't enough this time. The work done here should be used as a catalyst for something bigger, imo what they did here absolutely worked. ***3/4"

[9.0] "What a great main event! There were some rly nice moments, like Mizuki + Mei frenetic rollup battle, Mizuki breaking up a creative double pin with a diving foot stomp, or Miya just chucking Mei like a ragdoll at Saki! Saki was an absolute menace here, bullying the hell out of poor Miya with no remorse! Mizuki by contrast was much more light-hearted in her bullying, Mei brought her typical goblin energy... but this match was obviously all about Miya! Miya showed off her power, showed some really nice moments of babyface fire, and I was really impressed with how she hung in there! This obviously will be a pivotal match for the young wrestler, especially judging by the genuinely quite emotional moments of silence before the ending song hit, and I think she had a great performance in a longer match like this. Really good stuff, Saki + Mizuki is a team I need to see more of, and I'm quite excited to see where the story with Miya goes!"
