El Desperado & Yoshinobu Kanemaru b. Tiger Mask IV & Yuya Uemera when Desperado submitted Uemera with a Stretch Muffler – In interviews, the heels referred to this match as a handicap match for Tiger, because the Young Lion won’t even be a factor. Tiger and Uemera responded by attacking before the bell. They got some shine in the opening minutes, but the heels got the upper hand when the fight went to the floor. Back in the ring, Desperado ripped up Tiger’s mask, effectively taking him out of the match, leaving Uemera alone in the ring.

The Birds Of Prey (IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay & Robbie Eagles) b. The MegaCoaches (Ryusuke Taguchi & Rocky Romero) when Ospreay pinned Romero with a Stormbreaker – Somewhere along the way Taguchi and Romero got renamed The MegaCoaches, or they were that all along and I didn’t notice. Anyway, once again, both teams were babyfaces. There was the usual Taguchi comedy of running the ropes and corner attacks. The Birds turned the tide and worked over Romero while singing Happy Birthday to him. Taguchi got the tag and ran wild with Hip Attacks. The Coaches made their comeback and worked over Eagles.
