Reggie & Jessie Bennett vs. Mariko Yoshida & Mika Akino. This probably wasn't much of a match, but it's hardly worth even showing a 15th of a 15 minute match. The only thing notable was the finish, Akino picking up a low level win over Jessie with a huracanrana, and that was only notable because ARSION had a rookie score a win. 15:26 (0:57 shown). |

Tiger Dream & Hamada vs. Tamada & Yagi. This is one that I really wanted to see because I wanted to know how it compared to the final. Even though it was highly edited, the match still proved that these women work hard on the small shows, even when they don't draw well. Tamada & Yagi's teamwork seemed better here than in their previous match. The problem with this match is these women have too much stamina for the good of the match. I mean, none of these four tired in thirty minutes. The selling must have been non-existent in this match because even down the stretch they weren't showing me any signs that they'd been out there more than a couple minutes. Tiger worked almost the entire portion that aired, which probably says something about Ayako's execution in this match. Tiger & Yagi were good though, so what we saw was entertaining. 30:00 draw (4:47 aired). |

Yoshida & Akino vs. Gami & Lady Metal. Akino looked incredibly smooth and fluid for a rookie. This had the obvious result of Yoshida making Metal submit to a crooked headscissors. 18:57 (1:05 shown). |
