Day 3 is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/12/all-japan-pro-wrestling-11282025-real.html

Go Shiozaki vs. Shota Kofuji

They lock up. Go wristlocks him then Shota reverses it. Shota hammerlocks him and Go kimura's him. Shota armdrags him. Go takes him down and leglocks him. Shota goes up and over and armdrags him. Shota then dropkicks him.

Go kneebreakers him and then ties his legs up. Go double underhooks him and taps him out.

Thoughts: It went a little longer than it needed to and I thought Shota kicked out of more than he needed to (which shocked me). They tried but I didn't buy that he was winning. Shota really needs to show more fire in these roles as being fiery is what this rookie stuff is all about.

Thoughts: This wasn't good. Yoshida can't do much but throat shots and those don't even look great. We also spent half this seeing Rey without hits pants on. No thanks.

Thoughts: It wasn't a super serious bout and was nothing special. I don't really know what Kengo is doing in this tournament. He doesn't get to do a lot in these matches and is basically little more than an extra body. I didn't care for this.

Thoughts: It wasn't as good as it could have been but it was okay. Ryo was in this almost the whole way and brought the fight to his opponents. They eventually overcame him. It put Ryo over some but it was a waste of these guys for the most part. 

Yuma and Jun talk to each other on the mic after and stare down. 

Real World Tag League 2025 Block A Match - MUSASHI & Seiki Yoshioka vs. Ren Ayabe & Talos

The ref reaches a 9 count and Musashi's team gets in first. Talos' team is counted out.

Thoughts: Countouts work when you enforce them. AJPW rarely ever enforces countouts and sometimes even lets people fight in the stands instead of counting them out. The ending was a way to have Talos' team lose without losing and nothing more. They had the idea right of the big guys bullying the smaller guys but it wasn't great stuff and no one put that much effort into it.

Thoughts: It never really got a great flow going and the crowd wasn't quite as into it as I had hoped. The heels also won which limited some of the reaction here. The idea was okay with Odd and Xyon mostly dominating but I don't think the faces made the most of their comebacks to make this better. This was just okay. 

Xyon's group talks on the mic after. Xyon thanks everyone. Xyon asks the crowd to get up then Ashino talks. Havoc then does a group cheer. 

Overall thoughts: It hasn't been a great tournament so far and this show was no different. The main and the Ryo Inoue trios tag were the best things on here but it was far from anyone's best work. The second match was the worst thing on here with Rey Paloma wrestling with his pants down. I wouldn't recommend this one at all and would only give it a 5 out of 10.
