Tomohiro Ishii vs. Zack Sabre Jr. – British Heavyweight Championship

They started trading shots and reversals before ZSJ latched on an armbar and took Ishii down to the mat. He got to the ropes and the Rev Pro referee broke up the hold.

Sabre concentrated onto Tomohiro’s arm and it caused Ishii to not have the power he normally would with his strikes. Ishii was able to turn it into an ankle lock until Sabre got out and then Ishii steamrolled him in the corner.

Zack got hit with a superplex, but he held on and stomped on Ishii’s arm to continue the targeted damage.

ZSJ kept up the pressure on Ishii and then Tomohiro leveled him and nailed a powerbomb for a near fall. Ishiii hit a lariat after some counters and trading shots for another near fall.

After some more fast-paced reversals and pinfall attempts, ZSJ reversed out of a brainbuster and latched on a guillotine, but Ishii lifted him out of it. Zack transitioned into an octopus lock, and Ishii eventually had no choice but to submit.

Winner and New British Heavyweight Champion: Zack Sabre Jr

Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga vs. Evil and Sanada vs. The Young Bucks – IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championships

This was a very fast-paced match and they kept the moves coming one after another.

The Young Bucks dominated the first portion of the match and then they sold for a bit. They all set up a tower of doom and then Nick Jackson hit a 450 Splash on Sanada for a two count.

The Bucks started rolling and hit a pair of Superkicks, but Tonga jumped in and hit a gun stun when the Bucks went for a Meltzer Driver.

The Evil and Sanada pulled off the win after hitting a moonsault.

Winners and New IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions: Evil & Sanada
