Shingo Takagi vs. Taichi
This ruled so much. Taichi is so awesome with his KICKS & Shingo is a
true bulldozer with every bit of offense he lashes out. Smack &
bomb heavy fun all the way through. ***3/4
Jeff Cobb vs. Juice Robinson
Juice dominating at least 90% of the match wasn't the most expected
dynamic going into this, but it ended up being a very welcomed one, as
he DEFINITELY was the more interesting of the two when it came to their
offense. Juice is very good as usual, and while some first bursts of
Cobb's offense weren't interesting at all, he definitely picked up the
intensity in his last big comeback rally after countering Juice's Pulp
Friction attempt with those sweet German Suplexes. He looked really good
in that stretch just throwing Juice around. Good match. ***
Jay White vs. Toru Yano
Not a high tier Toru Yano match or anything close to that, but a pretty fun & solid 3-minutes. **
Hirooki Goto vs. Tetsuya Naito
A pretty good match, but nothing special, which is pretty much what I've
come to expect from this pairing. The in-ring action is just about 'the
usual' from the two too, with some work over the leg, neck, a bunch of
counters etc, etc. It's definitely pretty enjoyable, but nothing to
really write home about. **3/4
Jon Moxley vs. Tomohiro Ishii
Moxley brought his own, different charm to Ishii's smackfest formula
& it resulted in some real good stuff. Couple of very memorable
singular moments too, especially FLYING ISHII THROUGH THE TABLE! ***3/4
