                    • Hiromu Takahashi took up the microphone to talk to Desperado and Kanemaru who are the current IWGP JR Tag Champions.

                    • Tons and tons of drama in this match as Suzuki Gun had Yoshi-Hashi dead to rights for a long time. Douki was supplying the majority of the offense against Yoshi-Hashi. To Douki’s credit, this has probably been his most impressive outing that I’ve seen.
                    • Yoshi-Hashi eventually broke free, and the Chaos faction had Douki’s number for several minutes. While Douki fought back with the same tenacity as Yoshi-Hashi for a few minutes, he eventually got pinned after Yoshi-Hashi hit Karma.

                    • Yoshi-Hashi said that based on their defense of the 6-Man titles, he thinks they should get a shot at the IWGP Tag Titles. Sabre did not agree.
