1 | 01.06.2025 | Cavazos01 | 5.0 | ***1/2 interesting match, not good but much better than Taguchi's previous one, interesting intensity, normal chemistry, good limbwork by Despe on Taguchi's leg, some interesting sequences, a normal pace, a bit slow at the start although they increased it slightly towards the end, interesting ending. Despe manages to make Taguchi tap after multiple attempts during the match. |

19 | 26.05.2025 | Chefi | 7.0 | Awesome technical work to open, creative back and forth sequences between both men, but I would've prefered a Wato vs Kushida main event. Nothing super special, but a good match. |

21 | 26.05.2025 | ZooWee | 7.0 | Really enjoyed this. Honestly this is probably one of the best matches I've watched from this tournament. Good technical work to start before both guys start going after eachother's legs, which Taguchi gets the advantage on. For the entire match he constantly goes after Despe's ankle which he only manages to escape from by going after Taguchi's leg. The rest of the match is some more great submission counters and sequences and a bit of comedy from Taguchi, before Despe eventually locks in the Numero Dos for the win, not before Taguchi once again tries the ankle lock whilst locked in the hold. Very good match, and another great performance from Taguchi. ***3/4 |

23 | 25.05.2025 | cataclysm | 4.0 | We have another serious Taguchi main event, but I thought this was boring. We start with a grappling sequence and Despy has control for most of the first half. Almost all of his leg work is in the first 5 minutes or so of this match. Taguchi does not really do much to sell his knee as damaged. In the second half of the match Taguchi has the bulk of control with some of the least interesting limb work you will see as he works over Despy's ankle in preparation for his ankle lock. Despy sneaks out a victory with the numero dos after being on the ropes. It was a competently executed limb match but, did not resonate with me at all probably because of the fatigue of this mediocre show. |

48 | 25.05.2025 | Robin Heinzerling | 7.0 | Very good main event and another great match from Despe. If Taguchi locks in I really enjoy to watch him. Sadly that only happens rarely |
49 | 25.05.2025 | 1WingedWarDog | 8.0 | Very good technical match between these two. Big match Guch has been a pleasure to watch throughout this entire tournament. Really loved the finish and practically all the grappling throughout the match, much better than I thought it was going to be. |
50 | 24.05.2025 | Codebreaker | 8.0 | Ryusuke Taguchi hat ein überraschend starkes Turnier, was man im Jahr 2025 nicht unbedingt erwartet hatte. ***3/4 |
51 | 24.05.2025 | screwokada | 6.0 | Really didn't expect Taguchi to get multiple main event spots in this tournament, I kinda had him picking up one win or two at the most. Taguchi was very focused on the ankle of Desperado, forgoing a lot of his comedy in an attempt to get a victory over the IWGP Jr. Champ. Desperado ends up being a step ahead with the leg work, good match. 3.25 stars |
