[7.0] "A rock solid, competitive main event which slightly overstayed its welcome with Hayabusa kicking out a few too many times before the inevitable. Crowd was appreciative of the excellent athleticism, but far from full-on invested ***1/2"
[8.0] "A match I had very high expectations for, and while it slightly underdelivered to its potential, it was still a really good classic main event formula between one of the best of his generation in Kiyomiya and a very promising second iteration of Hayabusa. The pacing is not as good as Hayabusa vs. Masato Tanaka from earlier in the year, but a hot crowd and some really good work from both men make this a very engaging 20 minutes. Well worth a watch, a very good bout."
[9.0] "Remember, the main event match and the typical main event are not the same thing. It was a smooth and well-paced action. Kiyomiya looked like a big star here who had come to test the new Hayabusa. Kaito took advantage of every moment while Hayabusa was looking for an opportunity to win. The flashes of athleticism were well placed throughout the match, and in general, many of their interactions looked aesthetically pleasing, not only due to the performance of one of them, but also through the selling of the second. They carefully moved on to big and important moves, Kaito was ready to destroy Hayabusa, but he fiercely fought back and the ending turned out to be dramatic and catchy."
[8.0] "The new Hayabusa is a big hit with me and I thought that in this big spot, he more than delivered. Kiyomiya was brilliant too, playing his part in a classic Japanese-style slow burn main event."
[9.0] "WOW! 20 minutes totally crazy, it's really nice to see Kiyomiya in a match like this, I like the new Hayabusa more and more, he shows very beautiful things, I was hyped by this match when they announced it and I'm satisfied after seeing it, it was excellent."
