I was expecting a throwaway here but it wasn't. They went at a fast pace. Everyone gave a pretty good effort. We had a triple suplex spot and a neat 3 person top rope spot here.

Thoughts: It went long and lost some of my interest in the second half. They tried to sell me on Ema beating Hazuki but I wasn't buying that one. I also didn't really appreciate some of the screwing around in the beginning, especially since AZM rejected it twice. 

AZM talks to her opponents after. AZM then talks to Ema. AZM and Ema then walk out together.

Thoughts: It was a slower and boring match. BP did forearms and worked the arm almost exclusively the whole match and that was only so exciting. Han didn't get a ton of offense in and what she did didn't look that great as usual. The logic was fine but it wasn't that fun to sit through.

Han talks on the mic after. She says she won't forget the time with her and thanks her. Han offers a handshake and BP just rolls out. Han talks more and Saya Iida comes in to seemingly be her next title challenger.

Thoughts: It wasn't bad and was an okay main. Did Saya have a great main event worthy performance? Not really. She spammed the spear a lot here. It had a slower pace to it, Saya sold a lot and Itoh took more of a grumpy vet. Itoh did good with it though. 

They talk on the mic after. Suzu Suzuki comes out and challenges Saya. Suzu grabs her by the hair. Saya talks more and poses to end the show.

Overall thoughts: The opener was fine. The three got too much time and wasn't too good. The three-way tag was a decent bout with them going at it fast and putting out a good effort. I didn't like the screwing around in the Hazuki tag and couldn't buy that Ema was beating Hazuki. Ranna/Kikyo was basically a rookies match and it wasn't that good. The four-way was average. Hanan/Bea was slower and boring. The main was okay enough but it wasn't great. Neither Kurara or Itoh are strong main eventers and there was only so much they could do there. I'd give it a 4 out of 10 as it had a weaker card, the best girls were in lesser matches and the quality just wasn't there. It was below average.
