Crea and AKARI vs Rydeen Hagane and Momo Tani

Momo side headlocks her then Akari shoulders her over. Momo shoulder throws her then Akari armdrags her from the back and dropkicks her. Akari fujiwara's Momo and it is broken up then Momo drops double knees on her. Momo sits on Akari's back and pulls Akari's own arm over Akari's face. Momo then takes jumping knees in the corner.

Crea indian deathlocks Momo then hair throws her. Crea stomps on her then Rydeen gets in and beats up on both opponents. Rydeen slams Crea on Akari then splashes both. Crea double chops Momo. Momo comes back with a double knee drop on her back then octopus stretches her. Akari strangleholds Momo over the top rope.

Rydeen pops up Momo into a double foot stomp on Akari then Momo drops double knees on Akari vader bomb style. Rydeen lariats Akari in the corner. Rydeen misses a vader bomb on Akari then Akari comes back with kicks and a northern lights suplex for 2. Crea gets in and facekicks Rydeen then fujiwara armbars her. Rydee hits a lazy and bad spinning heel kick then Crea hits a stiff spinning superkick. Momo brekas up the pin then Rydeen double back drops both opponents.

Mom double knee drops Crea from the 2nd rope. They trade facekicks and Crea dragon sleepers her. Crea grounds her with it. All 4 girls get in the ring and Momo meteora's Crea through the ropes then Akari 619's Momo. Crea lifts up Momo for a bulldog and Rydeen breaks the pin attempt. Akari rolls up Rydeen then Rydeen puts her in la magistral for 1. The time limit then expires.

This went too long and really wasn't anything special.

Chie Oozora vs Hanako Nakamori

Chie hits a dropkick and armdrag early then gets armdragged. Chie bridges and Hana climbs on top of her bridge and kicks her leg out. Hana hair throws her then Chie hits more dropkicks. Chie goes up top and Hana goes to ipponzei her but Chie walks the top rope with her arm and armdrags her.

Chie dropkicks Hana as she is in the ropes. then double stomps her back and gut. Hana ties Chie up in the ropes and hits kicks on her. Hana camel clutches Chie and misses a top rope dropkick. Chie top rope dropkicks her then Hana hits kicks. Chie rolls her into an ankle lock. Hana perfectplexes her then Chie perfectplexes her.

Chie sunset flips her and they trade pin attempts. Hana eventually succeeds at one and wins it.

This was short and Chie got more in than usual, but there was no way she was losing here and I think everyone knew that.

Leon vs KAZUKI

Command Bolshoi is the special ref here.

They go to the mat then Leon grabs a hammerlock. Leon 2nd rope armdrags her then dropkicks her. Leon forearms her chest then Kaz knees her in the gut. Leon is put over the 2nd rope and Kaz tries to drop knees down on her but she won't budge. Leon makes her hand from the top rope and she pulls on her leg as she hangs. Leon bangs Kaz's knee off the mat.

Leon takes Kaz's kneepad off. Kaz pushes Leon's face into her knee then Bolshoi throws Leon into Kaz for some reason. Kaz does her taunt and Bolshoi whips Leon into Kaz. Bolshoi then puts Leon in a hold and Leon puts Bolshoi in a hold which Kaz makes her break. Kaz knees both in the corner then Bolshoi rolls her with a leglock. Leon corner spears Kaz and misses a second one, then gets rolled into a triangle. Leon leglocks her and Kaz forces her to break by grabbing her arm. Kaz chinlocks her and vader bomb style drops double knees on her. Leon rolls Kaz into a leglock and a reverse figure four and wins via submission.

I wasn't a fan of this one. Bolshoi got involved as the ref and this lost any credibility it had.

Overall thoughts: Not one of Pure-J's better shows. Skip it.
