>The young lions or the rookies did make a good impression onto the fans with the traditional young lion/new japan wrestling.

>There were many chop exchanges and the shoulder blocks as well as the boston crab submission holds connecting. Yuya Uemura finally ended Kanemitsu with the Dropkick when countering the running shoulder block from Kanemitsu.

 

|In a bout that had decent wrestling but didn't have much heat, ACH and Beretta defeated Hangman Page and Davey Boy Smith Jr. in 13:48 when Beretta defeated Hangman Page by pinfall with a Tornado DDT.| 61 |

>Page finally gets some chops in but Beretta counters in right after the hot tag from his partner. The double dropkick from ACH and Beretta connects while Page gets rocked on. The Tornado DDT soon follows on Page thus ending him out cold.

 

>This match had some good vibes to it. This also showed how great Beretta can connect with his partners while tagging. It seems Page and Smith have to rework if they want to dominate the tag division. The strategy made by Beretta and ACH worked correctly thus giving them the win right on. All men are improving to earn the stops they deserve.

 

|In a bout that had decent wrestling but didn't have much heat, Matt Jackson defeated Marty Scurll, TAKA Michinoku, Takashi Iizuka, Tomoyuki Oka and El Desperado in 14:34 when Matt Jackson defeated TAKA Michinoku by pinfall with a Moonsault.| 64 |

 

>This match was made to test whether or not some changes where correct, but it seems to be the right decision if I want to make some new matches. Although New Japan relies on Multi-man tag matches, let me see if I can get some multi-man single matches on spot.

 

>Matt Jackson starts right off with super-kicking Michinoku out of the ring. Iizuka being crazy as he should be goes after Matt Jackson, who counters with the rolling neckbreaker. Much to the hassle, it seems that Oka really did a great job in terms on countering to working on Jackson and El Desperado.

 

>The chops connects in series one after the other. There was a moment when all of them starts working on each other, but Desperado kicks all of them in face and starts to weaken down Matt Jackson. Jackson and Desperado battle within exchanging some fists onto each other before the Super Kick stuns El Desperado onto the mat. Matt Jackson finally hits the Moonsault from the top rope for the win.

 

>This match stood out to be good. The ratings stood out the way it should be. This was not a serious match, but this gets you on the way to the top, its all about experience and time. Matt Jackson did really good onto handling this match, as well as Oka stood out as the second lead to control. The working was good and the match worked its way to the finish nicely.

 

|In a decent match, Champions of the Night (Nick Jackson, Michael Elgin and Lance Archer) defeated Hikuleo, Jado and Juice Robinson in 15:28 when Nick Jackson defeated Juice Robinson by pinfall with a 450° Splash.| 64 |

 

>All three big men onto one match. Two of them stands with Nick Jackson as the other stands with Jado and Robinson. Robinson is showing really great potential onto becoming the upcoming superstar to set fire onto the match and finally becoming the family of New Japan in the near future.

 

>Robinson and Jackson starts with light exchanges and builds upto the corner where they exchange some breaks and light chops. Jackson works onto his opponents before tagging in Lance Archer, as the big power man takes control now. Lance Archer working through slamming Robinson, but he soon got the hot tag in the right time.

 

>Hikuleo and Lance Archer gets face to face, before Lance shoves Hikuleo who replies with some striking right hands to the face.

>Nick Jackson finally makes in and Elgin soon got if after Nick Jackson made a number of Damages on Jado and next was Robinson, but both men exchange hassle of moves before Elgin uses the power moves on the Robinson and much to his delight Robinson was almost stunned on. The tags continued before the powerful Super Kick from Nick Jackson knocked out Robinson for good and the 450° splash connects onto Robinson for the win.

 

>Robinson did a great job on those selling and the war between the giants was cool to see. Nick Jackson may have been the winner, but Juice Robinson was the dark horse here with the great Wreslting ability he possesses.

 

|In a decent match, Thieves of the Tainted (Tiger Mask IV, Tanga Roa and Tama Tonga) defeated SHO, Taichi and Taiji Ishimori in 14:35 when Tama Tonga defeated SHO by pinfall with a Tongan Twist.| 64 |

 

>Slippery and slimy attacker that is what describes Tama Tonga. Teaming up with a junior heavyweight seems to do more good than harm. Tiger Mask IV has been dominating the New Japan junior tag division alongside Liger in the past, but that does not mean he is not done yet, the kicks he throws will knock you out for sure.

 

>All men works on each other before Tama Tonga slams Taichi onto the mat hard as well as the senton drop connects on Taichi damaging him more. The working soon grew to the degree where the right elbows connected hard onto the face of Taichi same a stiff strike to throw.

 

>There was so much working done on this match as all of them shared quick tags to recover as faster as possible. The tonga made a quick strategy to counterattack their opponents. Tiger Mask IV made a quick works on kick onto Sho, before Tama Tonga comes out of no where and strikes with the gun stun not before hitting the Tonga Twist and claiming the match to themselves.

 

|In a decent match, "Switchblade" Jay White, YOH and Yoshinobu Kanemaru defeated Toa Henare, Will Ospreay and YOSHI-HASHI in 15:49 when Yoshinobu Kanemaru defeated YOSHI-HASHI by pinfall with a Deep Impact.| 65 |

 

>All the men on this match has a great future in hold on them.

>Jay White comes in right on with the chops onto Yoshihashi. The working were made really short and Kanemaru uses the kicks to his advantage. Jay is there as a sneaky heel trying hard to make some damage onto his opponents in heelish manner.

 

>Kanemaru continues with the strikes in as YOH joins right in after to works on the remaining members. Jay comes in from behind and attack Yoshihashi to the ground as the working the head follows.

 

>Jay works on the limbs to his advantage and the whips continues before the cross body connects, the back elbow, and finally the low drop larait connects to. Kanemaru comes in right in time to hits the Deep Impact on Yoshihashi ending him for good.

 

>This match was a good piece of study material for anyone who wants to know what Jay White is all about and how he can manipulate you and deceive you for the end.

 

>As soon as the match ends Jay White cuts a promo claiming that he is the best champion there is in New Japan. He has won the Never Openweight Championship, the IWGP Intercontinental Championship and the IWGP United States Championship. The only thing that remains to get his hand on is the IWGP Heavyweight Championship it self. He challenges Okada and will see him soon to meet his demands.

 

|In a decent match, Katsuya Kitamura, Cody and Jushin Thunder Liger defeated Bad Luck Fale, BUSHI and Chris Jericho in 14:36 when Katsuya Kitamura defeated Bad Luck Fale by pinfall with a Lariat.| 69 |

 

>Cody and Jericho are the ones that gets most of the spotlight with the amount of exposure they have gained from the WWE. Both men where a steal and this kind of exposure is needed in New Japan too, thanks to them its taking a new different height.

 

>There quicks spots of exchange of holds that leads to slow building of working. Fale makes the brawling exchange while BUSHI gets in the Junior exchange of holds. Chris Jericho finally comes in so does Cody as both of them exchange holds as Cody ends up hitting the Upper Cut chop.

>Chris Jericho tries to hit the superplex but Cody counters and hits the powerbomb for the 2 count. Cody gets in the dragon screw but Jericho gets in to hit the enzuigri for the 2. The exchanges of moves follows but both of them end up switching to their partners.

 

>Katsuya Kitamura comes in to work on the much bigger Fale but makes most of the work succesful enough to gradually weaken Fale. The running whipping exchange follows before the Striking Lariat from Kitamura seems to Knock out Fale cold.

 

>Kitamru ending Fale was a great showing that he has what it takes to climb up the ladder. The two former worker from the WWE seems to have some heat onto them as we move onto the next week where we have a some multi-single matches of contests.

 

|In a bout that had good wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd, Manabu Nakanishi and Rocky Romero defeated Togi Makabe and Toru Yano in 15:21 when Manabu Nakanishi defeated Toru Yano by submission with a Torture Rack.| 75 |

>There is not much of a detail to say here other than that all the veterans get a chance to shine in the spotlight as the fans still loves them. Yano and Makabe sure do makes a weird tag combination.

 

>Nakanishi and Makabe makes most of the works on themselves. The working where smooth enough to get the crowd to see more onto this. Makabe's brawling sense and Nakanishi's combination of Speed and Power seems to make a great chemistry between the both.

>A match of great calliber. All the great workers in a great match seems to do number of goods leading to the mainevent.

>Suzuki and all of them starts with attack leading to chops and holds onto the ground. Sabre Jr, gets most of the submission of his opponents. Sabre Jr, is one of the dangerous players that you don't want to mess around with. He has a villainous persona just like EVIL as the two of them work on their opponents to lead to the next level.

 

>Suzuki and Sabre Jr, exchange a number of holds onto each other as the two of them are experts in submissions and this gives us a good preview of what can happens when Sabre Jr. and Suzuki clash together.
