5. Goddesses of Stardom Championship: Oedo Tai (Bea Priestley & Konami) (c) vs. Donna del Mondo (Himeka & Natsupoi)
A very well executed tag match, where everyone shined in their defined role. Natsupoi, who was constantly battered by the aggressive champion team, was the perfect face-in-peril, with great facial expressions and a sense of urgency when on offense. There was also the fresh pairing of Bea and Himeka, who had a hard-hitting exchange.

6. SWA World Championship: Momo Watanabe vs. Syuri
A great main event that felt like it was missing an "X-factor" to take it to the next level. In my opinion, these two are "support types" who need a strong personality to play off of and elevate them, and there was no such thing here. The first parts were good, with hard kick exchanges and Syuri's ever-expanding moveset, but there was a lack of innovation towards the end and it fell into a predictable pattern.
***3/4
