Shino Suzuki & Suzume vs. Vert Vixen & Yuki Aino

[6.0] "Just a good slice of tag team action that escalated the pacing and action nicely as it got nearer to its conclusion with distinguishable dynamics between both teams: Vert & Aino being hoss, and on the other hand, you got Suzuki, the less experienced, falling victim to a control segment, giving her side of things a flair of being the underdogs, while Suzume, being the more tenured of the two, held her own against her opponents, which highlighted the hierarchy between her and Suzuki. There's a moment in the initial portion where Suzume and Shino worked together to cut off Vert (the larger opponent), and that displayed digestible psychology and that set off the tone for their respective dynamics. This match made me want to see Vert have a singles match against Suzume and Shino. This team of Vert & Aino I really, really dig, like, a lot. And again, this crowd elevates these matches. It's worth repeating because they came here to appreciate and have fun that they got TJPW in TEXAS! ***"

[7.0] "This perhaps went a touch too long but it was very competently worked and had a nice arc to it. not bad at all"

[5.0] "This opener felt like it went too long simply because in-ring action was average at best (even Suzume didn't impress), but that crowd was popping for everyone and everything because TJPW attracts the most forgiving fans in pro-wrestling today, so everyone got their shit while they had a chance."

[6.0] "Was a decent match for the opening of the show, Suzume had some nice parts into this match, was pretty decent"

[7.0] "Solid tag match to open the last of the Texas shows. Yuki and Vert work well as a team. Suzume was good here too, her stuff with Vert was the best part of this."

[6.0] "I'm gonna be honest, no one gives a singlehanded fuck about this match, just a match to get Vert on the card and it was alright I guess, nothing special"
