101. 6 Man Tag Team Match Yoshinari Ogawa, Kaito Kiyomiya & HAYATA defeated Keiji Mutoh, NOSAWA Rongai & Naomichi Marufuji.

Thoughts: This match had tons of fuckery, and it was all awesome. At the end of the match it also included Mutoh running over Kiyomiya. And it looked so devastating or not so much lmao. Not like I want anyone legit getting by a car lmao, but this was similar to Hulk Hogan's chair shot on Konnan.
Rating: 3.5

Overall The show started a bit slow, but there was a ton of great stuff on it. There were three top notch matches, and everything was watchable.

104. Cactus Jack defeated Terry Gordy - Barbed Wire Baseball Bat and Thumbtacks match IWA King of the Deathmatch tournament quarter-final match 6:58
