3. Ayako Hamada & Masato Tanaka vs. Nanae Takahashi & The Great Sasuke
This was really good, nice hard-hitting action from everyone involved. Sasuke is practically immobile at this point and reacts slowly, he was hilarious to watch.
***3/4
4. Arisa Nakajima vs. Tsukasa Fujimoto
This was an awesome blend of technique and violence. They're trying to inflict grievous bodily harm, but also show off their technical abilities with matwork and counters. Really liked the sequence towards the end where Arisa is controlling the wrist of Fujimoto and they're just pummel each other with strikes.
****
5. Ryo Mizunami vs. Yoshiko
Solid main event, doesn't set the world on fire or anything, but it's exactly what you would expect from these two powerhouses. I thought they were going somewhere interesting when Yoshiko hurt her leg diving from the apron and Mizunami targeted the injury, but they quickly drop the limbwork in favor of bomb-throwing. Yoshiko hits a sick headbutt in the finishing sequence!
***1/4
