KAZMA SAKAMOTO & Kengo Mashimo vs. LEONA & Mitsuya Nagai

[5.0] "LEONA, too, made this tournament, sporting long and facial hair, he looks like a relic from the decade his father started competing. From behind one could swear Nagai is a dead ringer for Akiyama. Nagai brings the malice & aggression and LEONA brings, brings, brings, ah, nepotism, two shoulders. Well, actually only once was needed as noted arm massacrer Mashimo almost ripped one-off prior to the screaming L submitting. It's good to see Mashimo back in AJPW, a natural fit, especially after a tough couple-few years of injuries, etc that really halted his career's momentum circa '18. The match is swif, painless and immemorable. 2 2/5"

[6.0] "A correct tournament match here, LEONA and Mitsuya Nagai clearly have no chance to win their block and they are against the favorites, so they did what they could but logically lost to Mashimo and Sakamoto. ***1/4"

[4.0] "Mmm, okay this match is maybe the more weak of the enitre tournament. Not a 1 rating match for sure but really under the sufficiency and satisfactory standard rating. At the end of the day a bad match can be present here."
