EVIL, Ren Narita, SHO, Yoshinobu Kanemaru & Yujiro Takahashi vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi, Jado, Oleg Boltin, Tomoaki Honma & Toru Yano

[6.0] "This was quite a scene. Tanahashi snapping is so dramatic, good foil for their fued with EVIL. Once again great showing for Oleg, man is a beast and him tossing SHO is the funniest thing in New Japan. I don't think Toru Yano even stepped inside the ring and Kumamoto's own Honma had a nice short moment. ***"

[5.0] "The match itself was just about as good as you'd expect, but what was more interesting was the finish, with Tanahashi snapping. It breathes some air into the feud heading into the Dome"

[5.0] "While it was a messy match, I love the idea of Hiroshi Tanahashi flipping the script and going dirty on EVIL."

[4.0] "The interesting part here was the finish in which Tana took advantage in EVIL's shenigans taking a chair the leader of HoT took from below the ring to hit him in the back multiple causing him to lose the match from DQ but also to get revenge. It wasn't the worst thing ever but other than the final stretch there was little. **"

[3.0] "The purpose of this match is just to set up an angle with Tanahashi losing his cool and getting disqualified and then subsequently challenging EVIL to a lumberjack match. The obvious problem with this is that EVIL and his goons have been blatantly cheating non-stop and in full view of the referees for years, but now all off a sudden the ref is concerned about the integrity of wrestling and disqualifies Tana for hitting EVIL with a chair a couple times."
