5. Tokyo Cyber Squad (Hana Kimura, Jungle Kyona & Leyla Hirsch) vs. Oedo Tai (Jamie Hayter, Saki Kashima & Zoey Skye)
The focus of the match was the feud between Kyona and Jamie, and they had hard-hitting heavyweight-style exchanges. Hana’s getting a lot of mileage out of that hammerlock between the ropes, which has quickly become one of my new favorite signature techniques of hers. Oedo Tai were able to chain moves together seamlessly, no one seemed out of place despite the “newness” of the trio.
***1/2
6. STARS (Arisa Hoshiki, Mayu Iwatani & Tam Nakano) & Riho vs. Queen's Quest (Bea Priestley, Leo Onozaki, Momo Watanabe & Utami Hayashishita)
Strong build up for the upcoming Korakuen Hall main card, with Arisa & Utami and Mayu & Momo going at it in intense exchanges. There was also an “AEW confrontation” between Riho and Bea, who traded offense and defense. Riho in Stardom is a different monster. She can really up the viciousness.
***3/4
