[6.0] "It wasn't necessarily the most exciting or crazy match. It gave a whole lot of the older members of the NOAH roster a chance to wrestle on a major stage, almost as a thank you for their dedication and tenure. It was quite basic, with really the only story beats being Manabu Soya's return and Taniguchi trying to use his heelish ways but his partners not playing along. Soya got the win and had the crowd cheering him on really more than anybody else."
[6.0] "Fun opening match with six big men. It's not a bad match but it's not worth checking out unless you are watching the show as a whole. Quite physical and hard-hitting."
[6.0] "Meat matchup! This was mostly big beefy guys going at each other which is always a fun watch. Soya is out with a new look which grew on me over the course of this bout, but he did look good throughout in his offence. Everyone actually looked good here to be fair, with the rumours of new stables the competitors seemed more inspired to put in the effort and it showed up in a matchup which was not incredible but did really engage me and settled at a very *good* level. Soya finished the bout with a Burning Lariat and one of his brutal Impaler DDTs. Very fun and entertaining throughout even if it did not reach the highest levels."
