Nat = Natsumi Showzuki, KM = Komomo Minami
They lock up. KM is backed up on the ropes. KM hits chest forearms. KM side headlocks her then headlock takeovers her using the ropes. They trade pin attempts and KM armbars her. KM is tripped into the ropes and Nat springboard double knee drops her. Nat single leg crabs her and crabs her.

KM flatliners her off the ropes then messes up her roll over the back ddt. Nat high kicks her for 2 then meteora's her for the win.
Thoughts: It was a short rookie vs vet match. KM got like one move of importance in and botched it. It wasn't that good.
CHIAKI vs. Bozilla
Chi offers a handshake for some reason. Boz accepts, holds onto the hand and knees her in the gut. Boz suplexes her and hits a corner splash. Chi avoids a splash, rakes her in the eyes and bangs her head off the buckles. Chi rakes Boz's eyes on the ropes then hits facewash kicks.
Chi goes for the slam and Boz falls on her. Boz cradle shocks her for 2 then chinlocks her. Chi sleepers her and is dropped backwards. They trade chest forearms. Chi shakes the ropes and eye rakes her. Boz throws her off of her.
Chi goes outside and sprays Boz in the eyes with something in front of the ref. Chi then sprays the ref. Chi eye rakes Boz then kicks her from the apron. Boz drops her head first on the apron then bangs her head off the apron. Boz hits corner punches and superplexes her.
Boz running sentons Chi for 2. Chi cradles her then rolls her up for 2. Chi hits mounted shots then Boz powerslams her for 2. Boz sitout powerbombs her and wins.
Thoughts: The logic made sense of Chi resorting to eye rakes and cheap tactics to deal with Boz. I didn't like Chi cheating in front of the ref through or spraying the ref in the eyes and nothing happening for it. Boz kind of worked like a semi-face here as both were heels.
Boz sprays Chi in the eyes with spray after.

Thoughts: Nao was great here by being a fiery underdog face. She sold well, showed a lot of spirit and had one of the best performances of her career. The match was pretty good actually. Their timing here was great and Nao and Nanae really had the match idea down solid. They also hid Kouki's weaknesses well here.
Nanae seems to put over Kouki on the mic after and has words for Nao and Misa. Nao says some things back.

Thoughts: They did time counts here and as it went longer and longer, it seemed like it was destined to be a draw. It was a three-way but mostly just 1v1 for the whole match with someone sitting out. They weren't lazy but it was just average here and not too great like most three-ways.

Overall thoughts: It was a smaller Marigold show here with only 5 matches. Nao's match was the best match of the night without question and the main was okay. The three-way was just a three-way and would have been better as a singles match. It was an average show and not one of Marigold's best.
