Show is available on NJPWWorld.com

FIRST MATCH: KUSHIDA, Tiger Mask & Jushin Thunder Liger vs. Roppongi 3K (SHO, YOH & Rocky Romero)

Fun start to the show. SHO and YOH are starting to wrestle like full-fledged CHAOS members.

Need To Watch Rating: (2.1)

SECOND MATCH: Toa Henare vs. Bad Luck Fale

Henare seems to be regressing. Not a bad match, just not a very dramatic one either. Felt a lot like a LIONSGATE match.

Need To Watch Rating: (1.0)

THIRD MATCH: Michael Elgin & Ayato Yoshida vs. Killer Elite Squad (Lance Archer & Davey Boy Smith Jr.)

KES are in prime ass kicking mode but nothing to write home about.

Need To Watch Rating: (1.5)

FOURTH MATCH: Will Ospreay & The Besties (Chuckie T & Beretta) vs. Bullet Club Elite (Chase Owens, Yujiro Takahashi & Kota Ibushi)

Really solid six man tag. Besties remain a bright spot of the heavyweight tag division.

Need To Watch Rating: (3.0)

FIFTH MATCH: NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Championship Match: Bullet Club OGs (Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa & Taiji Ishimori) (c) vs. Taguchi Japan (Ryusuke Taguchi, David Finlay & Juice Robinson)

Solid match. BC OGs are a solid team when they wrestle an actual match. Taguchi Japan is a delight as always.

Need To Watch Rating: (5.0)

SIXTH MATCH: CHAOS (Gedo, Hirooki Goto & Toru Yano) vs. Suzuki-gun (Taichi, Takashi Iizuka & Yoshinobu Kanemaru)

Suzuki-gun shenanigans get in the way of a decent tag match.

Need To Watch Rating: (2.9)

SEVENTH MATCH: Los Ingobernables de Japon (BUSHI, Tetsuya Naito, EVIL & SANADA) vs. Suzuki-gun (Minoru Suzuki, Zack Sabre Jr., TAKA Michinoku & El Desperado)

Suzuki-gun vs. LIJ is always good. Suzuki-gun vs. LIJ is never bad.

Need To Watch Rating: (6.7)

EIGHTH MATCH: Hiroshi Tanahashi & Great Bash Heel (Tomoaki Honma & Togi Makabe) vs. CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada, YOSHI-HASHI & Jay White)

Plenty to chew on in this match. Jay White continues to be the worst tag team partner ever.

Need To Watch Rating: (7.0)

MAIN EVENT: IWGP Heavyweight Championship Match: Kenny Omega (c) vs. Tomohiro Ishii

Ishii and Omega have a rare chemistry. They cannot have a bad match. Here Ishii proves that he can hang in even the biggest of big matches. Seek. Out. This. Match.

Need To Watch Rating: (10.0)
