AKIRA & Yuko Miyamoto vs. Hideyoshi Kamitani & Isami Kodaka

[7.0] "The match starts with Akira and Kamitani trading strikes. Kamitani drives Akira into the ladder set up in the corner, but Akira fires back by hurling the ladder into Kamitani's head. Kodaka and Miyamoto tag in next, exchanging some chain wrestling before Miyamoto smashes a light tube over Kodaka. He whips Kodaka into the tubes on the ropes and keeps up the punishment with more tube shots. Akira comes back in and continues the beating until Kodaka reverses, sending him crashing into the ropes lined with tubes. This gives Kodaka the chance to tag Kamitani, who storms in with momentum, whipping Akira into more tubes. Kamitani slams Akira onto a bundle of tubes, then drops an elbow onto another stack of light tubes placed on Akira's chest. Akira rallies with stiff kicks and a German suplex to turn the tide. Miyamoto and Kodaka come back in, with Miyamoto hitting an overhead suplex before swinging the ladder at Kamitani and throwing it out of the ring onto Kodaka on the floor. Miyamoto then climbs a table with Kamitani and spikes him through it with a piledriver for a 2 count. He follows by setting the ladder against the ropes and stacking tubes on it, but Kamitani counters with a nasty suplex onto it. Kodaka returns to punish Miyamoto with more tube shots before setting up two chairs, launching Miyamoto off the top rope with a hurricanrana onto them. Miyamoto guts it out and tags Akira, who crushes Kodaka with tube shots and a standing senton onto more tubes. Kodaka and Kamitani manage some double-team offense on Akira, but Akira fires back with a powerbomb and a double stomp. He and Kodaka trade strikes and tube shots until Akira smashes a bundle of tubes over Kodaka's head and plants him with a suplex onto a chair to score the 3 count. Overall, this was a decent deathmatch with good pace and a fair amount of action, but nothing particularly innovative or memorable. The bumps delivered some excitement, but the match lacked standout moments that would make it essential viewing."

[7.0] "Three of the four of these guys had a match in Tokyo Square not too long ago and it was AWFUL. This match is much better than that. High octane. Big spots. Miyamoto's bandage makes him look like a bootleg D-Lo Brown."
