Thoughts: This wasn't as good as it should have been. Masa didn't bully around him enough to make KK's comebacks work and they were too even here for anything to really get going. I don't like KK tapping out clean either.
N-1 Victory 2025 Block A Match - KENTA vs. Manabu Soya
Soya is dressed in a collared shirt and yellow pants for some reason like a ref. Kenta is very confused by this.

Thoughts: I was surprised Soya won here. I don't know what the point of him dressing up like a ref was here. The match got a little better as it went along but I'd still say it was just average.

Thoughts: I didn't like the finish. The top rope double foot stomp should finish someone and Maru no sold it. Aside from that, they traded a lot of strikes here. It was alright but not quite heated enough.
Maru talks on the mic to end the show.
Overall thoughts: The crowd wasn't that great here and didn't do much to help the matches. The matches weren't that great either sadly. Knight/Morris didn't really click. Fujita/Daga was kept short. Endo/Ulka almost got it right but it still wasn't great. Masa/Kaito was not that good at all. Kenta/Soya was about average. The main was the best thing on here but had a bad finish and wasn't great. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 as it was a below average night. I would not recommend this.
