6. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block B: Mayu Iwatani vs. Saya Kamitani
It wasn't as strong as I had hoped, but it was still very good. SayaSaya continues to look very impressive in this tournament. Mayu performed the standing dragon sleeper on a tall opponent for the first time, which was great.
***1/4
7. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block B: Tam Nakano vs. Giulia
Even though this took place in a small venue, it had a big venue atmosphere and both delivered giant-sized performances. Their chemistry has gotten stronger since the previous encounter, with the execution being spotless this time around. Some of the hits were so brutal that the crowd couldn't help but react, despite the no-chants rule.
****1/4
8. 5STAR Grand Prix 2020 Block A: Utami Hayashishita vs. Maika
This was probably the weakest of their singles matches. Maika looked good as the hometown hero, but I felt Utami’s performance was lacking a spark.
***1/4
