Akio & Sakoda vs. Jamie Noble & Rey Mysterio

[7.0] "Fast paced and fun debut for Akio and Sakoda. Akio is definitely the star of the new pair. Real good time."

[7.0] "Great work from Noble, Rey and Akio here. Sakoda doesn't really do much though. Akio especially pulls off some great moves and Rey builds the hot tag pretty well. Does it's job of building hype for the match."

[6.0] "Very solid wrestling. The interference from Tajiri was expected but executed well. I think Akio showed some good moves in this match. Sakoda did a little bit but he was nowhere close to anyone else in the match on working. That holds the match back a little."

[7.0] "I don't really know a lot about Tajiri's two henchmen as I kinda dropped out of wrestling around this point, but this was a solid debut match for them. It helped that Mysterio is one of the greatest high flyers ever and also takes a sick off the apron to put them over. Noble gets a lot of sympathy as the face here."

[9.0] "Another pretty great TV match for this era, at least three of the talents in here are world class, I could watch Akio, Noble, and Mysterio go all day. Sakoda isn't quite up to snuff but he's not bad here."
