Thoughts: It was a one sided match as expected. I didn't buy for a second that Rian had any shot here and she didn't get much offense in. It was a long and extended squash match essentially.

Thoughts: Kog pinning Suzu was an interesting surprise. The stuff with the jacket getting caught in the lines was funny. It was a fast paced match as always and I guess it had some charm to it, but it was average otherwise. 

Mei bets up Saya some after and Saya uses a poke and a ladder to retrieve her jacket in a funny moment.

Thoughts: It wasn't that good. Aya's leg was worked on by Mina for the first part of this. She tagged out, came back in and the leg work was forgotten about. That's pretty much the usual Mina Shirakawa match, only this time it was in tag form.. Aya got more offense in on Maika than I expected.

Mina talks on the mic after. They bring out someone with a guitar. He plays and Mina sings.

Miyu's team all get on the mic after and Tam's team leave without saying anything. The rest of Neo Genesis then come out and pose.

Thoughts: It was an average heel vs face match. There was nothing wrong with it. Everyone got about 2-3 minutes and then it was time to do the finishing stretch. I was kind of surprised to see HATE get the win.

Overall thoughts: It says something when the most entertaining part of a show is someone getting their jacket stuck in the lighting rig. None of the matches were that great here and were essentially mindless affairs. There weren't a lot of heels on this show either outside of HATE which limited what type of matches we got. It was a very average and by the numbers show and I would not recommend this one.
