4. WAVE Singles Championship: Nagisa Nozaki (c) vs. SAKI
Great back and forth with an overall sense of competitiveness and proper escalation during the finishing stretch. Neither wrestler has a strong personality, but they were hitting some nice, impactful moves. Nozaki's sleeper suplexes in particular looked great and SAKI deserves credit for how she took them. ***1/2
5. Suzu Suzuki vs. Kohaku
A good re-debut for Mikoto Shindo, now called Kohaku. I had high expectations since she was given the main event slot over the singles belt, but her performance was nothing impressive, just "solid enough". On the other hand, Suzu has become a different monster compared to her Ice Ribbon days (and even just earlier this year). Her physicality, expressiveness and visuals have improved dramatically. I'm looking forward to what she does next. ***1/2
