SECOND MATCH: Bullet Club Elite (Hangman Page & Chase Owens) vs. SoCal Uncensored (Christopher Daniels & Frankie Kazarian)
Really great warm up for World Tag League. Daniels & Kazarian always make the most of their time on NJPW TV. Owens & Page continue to grow as a team.

THIRD MATCH: CHAOS (Chuckie T, Beretta & Hirooki Goto) vs. Chris Sabin, Flip Gordon & Jeff Cobb
Really fun six-man tag. Goto & Beretta were the only long-time NJPW talent in the match, and even then Goto is the only one with a contract. Really good showcase of freelance talent.

FOURTH MATCH: Los Ingobernables de Japon (Tetsuya Naito, EVIL & SANADA) vs. Suzuki-gun (Davey Boy Smith Jr., Lance Archer & Zack Sabre Jr.)
Suzuki-gun vs LIJ is always good. Suzuki-gun vs LIJ is never bad. Sabre & EVIL’s rivalry continues to be gripping.
Need To Watch Rating: (7.5)
FIFTH MATCH: Jay White & Gedo vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi & KUSHIDA
Really great tag match. Gedo changes up his wardrobe to reflect his split from CHAOS. White & Gedo are a white-hot heel team. They’re the perfect foils for super babyfaces KUSHIDA & Tanahashi.

SIXTH MATCH: IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship Semi-Final: Will Ospreay vs. Marty Scurll
Possibly better than their Sakura Genesis match. Both men have been flirting with the heavyweight division, but this match proves why they’re pillars of the Jr. Heavyweight division. Scurll & Ospreay’s multi-promotional rivalry gets another searing chapter. Seek. Out. This. Match.

SEVENTH MATCH: IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championship Match: The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) (c) vs. Guerrillas of Destiny (Tama Tonga & Tanga Loa)
Really solid tag match from two of the best tag teams in any promotion. G.O.D keep pushing their game to new limits. The Young Bucks have seamlessly transitions to heavyweights.

EIGHTH MATCH: IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship Match: Juice Robinson (c) vs. Cody
An epic rematch from Cody’s NJPW debut. Juice is desperate to prove that he’s a different wrestler since Wrestle Kingdom 11. Cody wears the NWA Title to the ring proudly, and elevates this to the main event that it deserved to be.

MAIN EVENT: The Golden Lovers (Kenny Omega & Kota Ibushi) vs. CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada & Tomohiro Ishii)
Omega and Okada. Ishii and Omega. Okada and Ibushi. Ishii and Ibushi. There is no combo in this match that doesn’t lead to sheer brilliance. A fantastic tag match to send the crowd home spent.
