Atsushi Kotoge, Go Shiozaki, Hajime Ohara & Kazuyuki Fujita vs. Daiki Odashima, Masa Kitamiya, Naomichi Marufuji & Takashi Sugiura

[6.0] "This is a really good example of what I like in wrestling and want more of. These guys are all taking the match seriously with nasty striking, brutes, and some quick witted graps that look like they are meant to get the win instead of just looking nice. The Odashima stuff is an example of simple undercard storytelling that is all about the wrestling. NOAH has been showing Odashima's determination to prove himself, at one point Fujita is easily out wrestling him and he almost gets Fujita in a waistlock. The crowd gives an organic reaction to the moment, Odashima didn't even get the advantage for a second, but he almost did and it mattered. ***"

[5.0] "Best match on the card so far, but not quite good enough to get me to raise the rating to a 6 instead of a 5."

[6.0] "This was pretty decent. Odashima and Fujita are obviously the main talking points but I thought Shiozaki looked great especially"

[6.0] "Shiozaki doing his thing against Sugiura and Odashima was a lot of fun, though it does feel bittersweet today. The crowd seemed to really like Odashima, hopefully he's gonna become somebody."

[6.0] "Good multi man that continued the Odashima/Fujita story. This is the best use of Fujita in years. ***"

[7.0] "Despite an assuming place on the card, this tag match shone. Shiozaki threw some big lariats and the crowd loudly supported Odashima. Not a classic but it was pretty neat."

[5.0] "The first segment of this bout was just a highlight for Odashima, and he looks damn good for someone so inexperienced. Other than that, this was just decent really, not lots to comment on other than a strong exchange between Shiozaki and Sugiura. There were some great nearfalls for Odashima near the end, the crowd really bought into them and went crazy for the young lad. Shiozaki got the win over Odashima in the end with a Gowan Lariat and while this was nothing special, it did give a lot of promise to Odashima and made me excited to watch him progress."
