Alpha Wolf, Masa Kitamiya & OZAWA vs. Dragon Bane, Will Kroos & Yoshiki Inamura

[6.0] "So it was decent, but I was expecting a bit more, it was boring sometimes, even if the participants itself are good."

[6.0] "Team 2000X did their usual heel routine which works but it is what it is. The brother versus brother dynamic was the most interesting hook, even if it never fully exploded the way it probably should have. Wolf's new look is cool and Kroos continues to quietly impress without ever fully clicking. The finish was predictable but not disastrous."

[7.0] "[6, 50/10, 0] The match was pretty good, in my opinion. It's your typical three-on-three match between top-tier wrestlers, with some tag team combinations, but mostly it focuses on individual moments for each wrestler to shine. It's just okay, but it has a good pace, some entertaining moments, and it works much better than most matches of this type."

[7.0] "Really enjoyed this one, first of all: Wolf reminds me of NWO Konnan with this new attire, his new heelish style has not damaged too much the athletic aspect of his repertoire it seems. Kroos and OZAWA were fine even if they were the partecipants of the match with the least amount of focus on them, Bane sold really well but i hoped that he would show some more fire against his brother. The screwy finish was to be expected, wasn't so bad after all and keeps the faces protected in defeat. Most importantly: it's the first time since Inamura returned that he feels so vulnerable, OZAWA had to play mind games and enrage him to get an advantage, but now it's different, Kitamiya matches him on his strong suits, the physicality, the power, the explosiveness..., he left the champion laying down after a show without weapons for the first time since his return, and he clearly has a mental advantage going into the january 11 show, I think that a title change may be in the cards."

[6.0] "this was ok, the angle is releatively dry and I wasn't entirely impressed by how it panned out here."

[6.0] "As much as I didn't love the execution of the angle I am pretty excited about Dragon Bane and Alpha Wolf feuding and I thought this was a pretty fun idea for a main event to build to that and Inamura vs Kitamiya. Pretty good match overall, 3.25 stars"

[6.0] "I'd have liked to see some more 'fire' from Dragon Bane here, who looked good but not necessarily desperate to get his hands on his brother. Alpha Wolf looked good, working a more heel-ish style and looking good in his new gear. Unfortunate T2000X finish because this was starting to get pretty good. Overall, not bad. ***."

[6.0] "This looked like being an excellent match with some very entertaining action sandwiched between the Team 2000X nonsense but then once again they couldn't resist the terrible heel finish. When will these promotions learn if it happens in every one of there matches its no longer a surprise."

[5.0] "Very much an exhibition to cement the turn by Alpha Wolf. You would think Dragon Bane would have been a little more pissed and eager to go after Wolf but when they interacted it was more of a continuation of the previous night. Wolf seemed to change it up a bit and lean on the cocky heel aspect but I would have liked to see more of a fight from Bane. Anyways, Inamura was the least interesting person in the match. I was hoping Masa just crushed him every time they were in the ring together. Kroos was good in spots but seemed to have some chemistry issues with Ozawa although the spinning sit down powerbomb was great. Wolf's finish was sports entertainment but worked."
