SECOND MATCH: Yuji Nagata & Manabu Nakanishi (2 pts) vs. Los Ingobernables de Japon (EVIL & SANADA) (12 pts)
Hard hitting match, definitely a past vs. present vibe. LIJ have been carrying every match they’re in during this tournament. The New Japan Dads are always a delight.

THIRD MATCH: FinJuice (David Finlay & Juice Robinson) (10 pts) vs. Dick & Balls (Hangman Page & Yujiro Takahashi) (6 pts)
This match is a lot of fun. Both of these teams are a lot of fun. You know what I’d call this match? You guessed it. A whole lot of fun.

FOURTH MATCH: Togi Makabe & Toa Henare (6 pts) vs. Suzuki-gun (Minoru Suzuki & Takashi Iizuka) (8 pts)
Solid beat ’em up with good momentum for Henare. At this rate, he’s G1 Climax bound in 2019.

FIFTH MATCH: Jeff Cobb & Michael Elgin (8 pts) vs. The Bestie (Chuckie T & Beretta) (10 pts)
The Ballad Of Whatever-The-Hell-Is-Going-On-In-Chuckie-T’s-Mind continues.

SIXTH MATCH: Ten-cozy (Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima) (6 pts) vs. CHAOS (Tomohiro Ishii & Toru Yano) (12 pts)
All of these guys are good at punching each other. Most of them punch each other in the face but Yano punches them in the groin. Either way, hard-hitting stuff.

SEVENTH MATCH: Guerrillas Of Destiny (Tama Tonga & Tanga Loa) (12 pts) vs. Suzuki-gun (Zack Sabre Jr. & Taichi) (10 pts)
A really great match that makes a good case for Sabre/Taichi to stick around into 2019. Jado and TAKA work off each other nicely as dueling valets. Fun, worthwhile stuff.

MAIN EVENT: Hiroshi Tanahashi, Kazuchika Okada, KUSHIDA & Rocky Romero vs. Bullet Club (Jay White, Bad Luck Fale, Taiji Ishimori & Gedo)
Just hook this match to my veins. I never get tired of it. This is the best of this series of matches. Okada and Tanahashi on the same page is a sight to behold.
