AKARI vs Himiko

Himiko takes her down early then armdrags her off a hiptoss. Akari armdrags her from behind and bounces her off the ropes. Akari then throws her by the hair. Akari hits some shoulder throws then double armbars her. Akari slams her for 2 then Himiko hits a back elbow and an armdrag. Himiko then slams her for 2 then does an arm and headscissors hold.

Akari then pump kicks her for 2 then takes a dropkick. Himiko rolls her up then corner dropkicks her. Himiko then hits a rough looking bulldog for another 2. Akari then northern lights suplexes her and wins it.

There was nothing particular bad or great about it. Just an average match. Himiko's bulldog was nice though.

Sumika Yanagawa & Yuko Sakurai vs Ibuki Hoshi & Kaho Matsushita

Yuko's team attacks before the bell then Kaho's team comes back with dropkicks on both. Yuko takes a double shoulder then Yuko slams Kaho. Yuko's team then double elbow drops Kaho. Sumika gets in and slams Kaho then camel clutches her. Kaho then hits a 2nd rope dropkick and tags out.

Ibuki gets in then cartwheels through a double lariat attempt. Ibuki hits a flurry of chops on Yuko and pushes the ref off. Yuko then shoulders her over and splashes her. Sumika slams Ibuki for 2 and does a handstand kneedrop. Ibuki dropkicks her while she's against the ropes thn octopus stretches her. Yuko then joins in and puts Kaho in the cobra twist. Sumika takes a pair of high kicks then Kaho crossbodies her off the buckles.  Sumika dropkicks Kaho then Kaho takes a dropkick from both opponents.

sumika misses a spin kick and takes kicks to the back. Kaho then PK's her for 2. Sumika takes a top rope dropkick from Kaho for 2. Sumika hits a bad spin kick and codebreakers her for 2. Sumika hits another spinning high kick then spinning facebusters Kaho for the win.

Like usual, Sumika's offense sucked and brought this one down. She might be able to do spin kicks and stuff, but they look like trash. It was short and okay otherwise, but really nothing special. 

Asahi vs Misa Kagura

Asahi is wearing a black cut off shirt and jean shorts here which is different from her usual attire.

Misa rolls and wristlocks her and they do some reversals with it. Asahi grabs her by the hair and throws her. Asahi chinlocks her over the ropes then Misa does some shoulder throws on her.Asahi is tied up in the ropes and they start chatting about something then Misa crabs her. Asahi facebusters her for 2 and they trade chest forearms. Asahi hits a top rope la silla but Misa turns it into a pin and dropkicks her for 2. Asahi then backslides her and flips into a pin.

I thought this was decent for only having about 7 minutes.

Madeline and Totoro Satsuki vs Cherry and A~min

Totoro and Amin shoulder battle to start and Amin knocks her over. Madeline tries Amin's falling splash but Amin gets out of it. Amin then slams her then Amin + Cherry do the falling splash. Maddy cartwheel back elbow then crossbodies Amin for 2.

Cherry gets in and back rolls into a legsweep then an STF veriation. Totoro gets put on top of Maddy then Cherry double stomps both. Cherry then armbars Maddy and Maddy does a jumping split on her. Totoro is tagged in and sentons then falling splashes Cherry. Cherry climbs Totoro's knee for a triangle then her and Amin hit stereo submissions.

Totoro and Maddy run into each other and their opponents splash both in the corner. They throw the ref at them and both move, as the ref goes into the corner. Maddy then gets tripped into the ref. Amin corner splashes Totoro then sentons her. Amin and Totoro trade chops for forearms then Amin flurries her and double chops her. Totoro nails her hard with a chest forearm and Cherry hits her when she goes against the ropes. Amin then hits a spinning double chop.

Totoro whips Amin into a Maddy dropkick then Amin backbracker racks Totoro. Amin then flipping sentons Totoro for 2 and 2nd rope sentons her for 2. Totoro lariats Amin for 2 then hits another for the win.

This was a decent tag match here. I liked the girls copying Amin's splashes as usual and Amin and Totoro both out of a good performance to carry this one.  

Overall thoughts: As the norm with IR Dojo shows, it wasn't must see but what we got was fine enough.
