Dick Togo, DOUKI, EVIL, SANADA & SHO vs. El Desperado, Shota Umino, YOH, YOSHI-HASHI & Yuya Uemura

[4.0] "The best HoT tag in a while but still nothing really exciting, at least they built more feuds and the finish came quickly. **1/4"

[5.0] "Can't say I paid all that much attention to this match I'm afraid but what I did see was competent enough."

[5.0] "Nothing to say really, it was a tag match with House of Torture, and i hate to see them on a card...."

[4.0] "A perfectly servicable opening tag team match for a NJPW show. Gets some solid workers on the card, everyone gets atleast a small chance to shine, solid and unremarkable."

[5.0] "Nothing much going on here. Young guys get the win which is good. Otherwise, just your standard multi man opener. **1/2"

[6.0] "Thought this was fairly fun , DOUKI and despe should be a good title match , although I am a bit tired of house of torture in big matches"

[6.0] "I thought this was a decent tag opener with House of Torture (Dick Togo/SHO/DOUKI/SANADA/EVIL) vs El Desperado/YOSHI-HASHI/YOH/Shota Umino/Yuya Uemura. I give this decent match a 6 out of 10."

[5.0] "I'm a simple man, I see Uemura get a pinfall, I smile. Anyway, this was, you know, a big ten man tag featuring the House of Torture. It is what it was. The House of Torture shenanigans felt pretty minimal so I think the HoT haters would find this more tolerable than most, but it's still a big chaotic multi-man with little high points to speak of. But Uemura won so that's nice."

[5.0] "Forgettable opening tag match, however I did like the stuff between Despe and Douki, so there's hope for that to be a good match. Everyone else did their thing, and nothing really memorable happened. I feel like we may be getting Despe/YOH vs SHO/Douki for the Jr tag titles on the Road to KOPW, which I'd be fine with. Uemura and Umino continue their tag team work, and it's looking promising."

[5.0] "This was a pretty good opening multiman for the most part, I am enjoying the pairing of Uemura and Umino. Your enjoyment will depend on how much you enjoy HoT and their shenanigans, no outside interference but lots of cheating. Uemura pinned Togo for the win with a Hurricanrana, and this was fun but forgettable, set up some threads well but did feel quite mediocre."
