[9.0] "I would've given this a 10 if there was a definitive winner. The final 10 minutes if this was extremely hot. I genuinely thought every pin attempt was gonna be the one at that point."
[8.0] "[4.5*] I loved this match, the dynamic between the two tags was very interesting, Morishima and Kenta had spectacular exchanges here. Marufuji and Kenta use their speed, kicks and teamwork to weaken and attack Morishima, the moment when he returns to the ring and reacts aggressively is really cool. The ending is very fierce and intense, the brutality of the two tags was impressive and the match ending in a draw was a fair result."
[8.0] "Definitely a bit sloppy in places with a couple of tiny botches, but this was a very exciting match. Morishima may have stole the show here with his heavy but fast-paced style. He beat the hell out of KENTA and Marufuji. This wasn't the best KENTA and Marufuji tag match by far, but it was still a really good one (even if it was sort of average by their standards)."
[10.0] "Incredible. absolutely incredible. This was one of the best Tag matches I'll ever see, Blown away by the KENTA and Morishima exchanges, the Drama was so intense, Molten hot crowd that was into every single move, the sense of urgency in the last five minutes were second to none with nothing seeming to be filler every move in this match felt necessary. **** 3/4"
[9.0] "KENTAFuji vs WILD II or the big fucking bastards, as I call them was a very good tag team match. The size difference of the two times made for an interesting dynamic. All 4 were considered the next generation of NOAH so it's pretty cool to watch it. Great babyface performance by KENTAFuji agaisnt thye big guys, who just dominated and throw them around. But KENTAFuji gives some back with their combbacks that popped the crowd big. Morishima hitting a dive was awesome and got the biggest pop. It's a very good tag team match, one everyone should watch. (****1/4)"
[8.0] "Takeshi Rikio & Takeshi Morishima -vs- KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji [****] A MOTYC! The super-heavyweight Takeshi team against one of the best light heavyweight tag teams in the world. To put it like this. Marufuji was pretty much blah. Rikio was passable. KENTA was very good. But Morishima was out of this planet on fire! An amazing God putting on performance of the year."
[9.0] "Grandioses Tag Team Match und zugleich eines der besten 30 Min Time Limit Draws das ich bisher gesehen habe ! Kenta und Morishima für mich die Hauptdarsteller dieser Paarung, immer wenn die beiden gegeneinander im Ring waren brannte die Luft ! Morishima war zu seiner Hochzeit wirklich unglaublich gut und einer der 3 besten Powerhouses weltweit ! Rikio damals auch sehr motiviert und in guter Form und Marufuji zeigte auch seine typischen Spots und Aktionen ! 4 1/2 Sterne von mir, gehe mit Meltzer konform"
[9.0] "This was a great match. KENTA & especially Morishima were absolutely OUTSTANDING - Rikio was really good too, but holy shit was Marufuji awful or what? He actually came off as a comedy wrestler because of how bad he was in this. There was a moment in the match during Morishima's FIP segment where KENTAFuji has him cornered - Marufuji goes and throws some of the worst looking punches I've ever seen in a wrestling ring. Legitimately laughed out loud at it & had to pause the match for a while to collect myself lol. What a moment. But yeah, this was indeed a great match, could've been even greater had Marufuji not been involved, but then again he did deliver one of the greatest comedy spots in wrestling history with those rapid fire corner punches on Morishima. ****"
[7.0] "Good match, with both KENTA and Morishima shining; on the other side I was rather disappointed with Marufuji in this match. The action is fast and furious, but the match really suffers due to the finish. Overall nice contest, but nowhere near **** 1/2 ."
[9.0] "KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji are great rivals, but as you can see in that match, they can also make a pretty damn good team! The junior-heavyweights go up against the super-heavyweight team of Takeshi Rikio and former ROH World champion Takeshi Morishima. Even tho the size difference in pretty obvious, this match is very open and shows that the smaller guys can hang with the big guys with speed, heart and pure talent. Great chemistry as rivals and great chemistry as a team, KENTA and Marufuji are two of NOAH’s building block and most important stars."
[9.0] "Konzept dieses Matches bietet viele tolle Möglichkeiten, wenngleich sie auch schwer umzusetzen sind. Doch alle vier Akteure legen sich richtig ins Zeug und zeigen einen großartigen Kampf. Marufuji und gerade KENTA teilen richtig aus ohne das nur eine Aktion gegen die Riesen unglaubwürdig wirkt. Besonders die Interaktionen zwischen KENTA und Morishima, welcher ihm gegenüber keine Gnade zeigt, sollte man hervorheben. Da man zuvor so einen grandiosen Kampf gesehen hat, tut das Finish nicht allzu weh."
