Hartley Jackson, Kosei Fujita, Ryohei Oiwa & Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Hirooki Goto, Oleg Boltin, Ryusuke Taguchi & YOSHI-HASHI

[6.0] "Standard 8-man tag with the bonus of getting a couple of funny moments from Taguchi. Other than that, it was a basic ladder formation with everyone getting their minute of domination and the weakest one being submitted."

[6.0] "Decent eight-man tag to build for the February 2nd show. Hyping up Oiwa vs. Goto & Jackson vs. Boltin. I liked the mix of comedy and actual wrestling in the match made it a more enjoyable experience. [***]"

[5.0] "This was alright, the Taguchi stuff lost a bit by the beginning but I really liked the finish Oiwa used. 2.75 stars"

[5.0] "This is alright. Taguchi gets a lot of screen time here which is fine but it meant we didn't see too much preview action between the other guys. We saw a bit between JAG and Oleg which was fun. Fujita with the shovel also made me laugh. **3/4."

[6.0] "Dunno if Fujita bringing a shovel to ringside was approved or not but Taguchi looks personally offended by it and has his game face on for the first half of the match. Fujita throws some live rounds with his chops. Bit of a sloppier, more urgent pace to this one than the usual undercard tags you see from NJPW. Oiwa, Oleg, and Taguchi had me invested by the end."
