[4.0] "A match where two dexterous wrestlers competed in technique at the most basic level, without something really memorable. One question, was it necessary for this match to be a title match? (**)."
[7.0] "Very good match. Lanzeloth now clearly feels fine in Japanese ring, so he finally showed his true skills. I like how AMAKUSA was working as second here, giving Lanzeloth his time to shine even on the smaller show. I would prefer this bout taking place on Yokohama PPV, but here we are on one of those stinky Sunny Voyage shows. ***3/4"
[8.0] "Amakusa has shown himself to be one of the best junior heavyweights in the world this year and this match was another impressive notch on his resume. He was so dynamic in this match, looking dangerous when on offence himself and bumping like a mad man to get Lanzeloth's stuff off. Easily the best showing in NOAH from the Mexican wrestler, who previously had looked pretty lost. ***3/4"
[6.0] "This match a pretty good title defense in a vacuum, but it won't remembered in the long run. Lanzeloth had a good enough performance to showcase himself as a worthy challenger, but really this was a AMAKUSA show."
