Per usual with Jay White and Kenta matches, Kenta rolled out of the ring when the bell rang. When the opportunity came, Bullet Club triple teamed Naito and kept him in the ring for the first 9 minutes of the match. When action spilled to the outside, Sanada put Gedo in the paradise lock. Following the triple dropkick from LIJ, Naito hit Gloria and then Destino for the pinfall victory
