Hiro Saito, Michiyoshi Ohara, Takashi Iizuka & Tatsutoshi Goto vs. Makai #1, Makai #5, Ryushi Yanagisawa & Tadao Yasuda

[6.0] "The Crazy Dogs come out to "Who Let The Dogs Out" which was pretty funny, not gonna lie. The gimmick is Captain's Fall elimination with whoever losing having to get into a tiny doghouse. While the Crazy Dog guys are all willing to brawl, Yasuda stays to the back of his crew and plays the coward to perfection despite mostly not being in the actual match, not even bothering to get on the apron. They screw Iizuka very fast as Yasuda distracts him enough for Makai #5/Nagai to knock him out with a roundhouse kick and he gets pinned first. Nagai brawls with Ohara and co until Yasuda tags in just to choke the guy out on the ropes, which gets big heat as he flips off the crowd. Yasuda gets beat down eventually and eats a Saito Senton for a good pop, which turns sour when Yasuda low blows the beloved vet and nearly gets thrown out of the ring for his troubles. Really boring control sequence by the Dogs as they all go for cheap eye rakes and rest holds to pad for time. Mr B.D. lands a rough lariat and they tease a backdrop before another Yasuda low blow. He manages to tag out and the lads hone in on the elder Saito with strikes until he manages to land a random jawbreaker to Strong Machine/Nagai but Yasuda and co use interference to throw him out of the ring, which counts as a elimination. Despite some good combos Machine/Nagai is eliminated after Goto hits him with a chair from the outside, stunning him enough for a big lariat pinfall. Yasuda and co bully Ohara with the numbers game, which is effective enough for the crowd to cheer and chant him on. The finish has him eat a kick to the back by Yanagisawa into a Tiger Driver by Yasuda for the pin. This is typical heel antics 100% but it works here given the conditions. Yasuda is a cowardly heel who needs his goons to virtually do everything while he comes in to land the occasional bomb or two: a easy way to get massive heat. That said, this did die down in the second half and went on a bit too long. Everyone does fine enough (albeit some are more limited than others for obvious reasons) and I really wasn't a fan of eliminating Iizuka so early when he's by far the most capable out of his four."
