Thoughts: Things got messy near the end with Hina and Waka having trouble working with each other which brought this down. Rian didn't get treated like a young girl here and got to do a little more than usual in this one. This one wasn't that good.

Thoughts: It was a decent fast paced tag here. That suplex + backbreaker move doesn't look like much fun. I don't know what Ranna's fameasser move is supposed to be but I have yet to see her hit it clean yet or make it look good. I thought they put in a good effort here.

Thoughts: No idea why this went to a double countout here since it's not even a league match. That makes little sense. It only got 10 minutes here. It was average for the most part.

Kon triangles Syu then Syu stretch mufflers her while tying up the arms. Syu submits Kon.
Thoughts: It's weird to see Saki taking things seriously after goofing off all summer long. There was a lot of armwork in this one and I thought it was average. I do feel like Saya is being wasted some as a heel as she can do a bunch of flying stuff others can't yet doesn't get to do it so much because she is a heel.

Thoughts: They put out a good effort here with Haz and Tora doing stuff they don't normally do. It went a little longer than it needed to but it was an okay main. I'm not sure why this was put in the main over other matches though.
Kog and Haz talk on the mic after.
Overall thoughts: I felt like they gave a better effort than they usually do on house shows. Stardom's fast paced style kind of forces tag matches to be certian ways and the matches weren't totally different from each other in this one. I would have maybe done a different main, but the girls did try to do a better match than usual. I liked the main and the opener best on this one. It wasn't must see or anything and it was about average overall.
