Jay White vs. Yohei Komatsu

Simple, solid match. They traded back and forth offense an looked pretty good, though this was short. White had him in a Boston crab at one point but he escaped. Komatsu put him in a half Boston crab of his own and submitted him.

Yoshi Hashi and Toru Yano vs. Jay White and Tetsuya Naito

Nothing of note. Yoshi-Hashi and David Finlay had some great back and forth, but typical finish with Yoshi-Hashi laying him out with a lariat and pinning him with a swanton bomb.

Kota Ibushi, Captain New Japan, Togi Makabe and Hiroyoshi Tenzan vs. Bad Luck Fale, AJ Styles, Tama Tonga and Doc Gallows
