5. Falls Count Anywhere Match: Hyper Misao vs. Jun Kasai
Korakuen was burning for this match. Hyper Misao gave an earnest underdog performance, and Kasai was magnificent of course, he had the crowd going bonkers. Fantastic blend of action, drama and comedy.
****1/4
6. TOKYO Princess Tag Team Championship: NEO Biishiki-gun (Saki-sama & Azusa Christie) (c) vs. Reika Saiki & Marika Kobashi
Par for the course with Neo Bishiki-gun, nothing special and nothing I haven't seen from them a dozen times already. I love Azusa, but she hasn't offered much as a member of Bishiki-gun. Bring back Masa. The finishing stretch seemed to be building towards something dramatic but ended on a dropkick.
**1/2
7. TOKYO Princess of Princess Championship: Miyu Yamashita (c) vs. Rika Tatsumi
Great main event and the best defense of Miyu's reign so far. There's a Cobra Clutch struggle here that was fantastic - loved Miyu kicking at Rika's arm as she tried to escape the hold. Rika gave an emotional performance, and introduced a couple of new hip attacks that I dug as well.
