Thoughts: This was yet another Miku/Mirai draw, only in tag form this time. They match up well together so it's not a problem but you do have to wonder what the long term play is here and when this is going to end. Boz and Utami were really just along for hte ride here and I'm not sure what Miku pulling Boz out of the ring was all around. It was a decent match here with miku and Mirai showing a lot of spirit as usual.

Miku talks to Mirai after. Boz says she has no idea what she said but said she will win the United National Championship next week because size does matter.

Mirai gets on the mic too and she, Miku and Boz stare down. Utami then talks after.

 Mai Sakurai, Nanae Takahashi & Nao Ishikawa vs. CHIAKI, Nagisa Nozaki & Zayda Steel

I'm not really sure why this is the main over the Miku/Mirai match.

Chi's team gets jumped on to start and Chi is triple teamed. Chi takes a triple team elbow drop. Nao is lifted up by her partners but her partners get knocked over and she drops. NN sends NT into the seats and NN uses a chair on NT.

They all brawl outside but we can't see much of it due to the camera location. We get some great shots of the back of the fans heads though. NN beats up NT on the stage. Chi slams Nao on the floor.

NN throws another chair at Mai. Zay takes a backdrop and a northern lights suplex for 2. Mai top rope elbow drops Zay and wins.

Thoughts: Nagisa should have been DQ'd here for the various chair shots. It was an okay trios match though it would have been nice if the camera's were raised more so we could see what was going on. It wasn't great but it was suitable enough for a house show main event.

Nagisa goes after Nanae after. Mai and Chi then end up joining the fight. Nao's team talks on the mic after.

Overall thoughts: Nothing was must see here but nothing was bad. The tag match draw with Bozilla was the best thing on here which wasn't too surprising and the main was fine. Komomo continues to look good and is probably better than some of the lesser roster members at this point. Yuzuki and Misa had a good outing against each other here. I don't think this show did much to build up the big show on the 13th though as none of the matches had anything to do with that card. I'd give it about a 7 out of 10.
