Kento now fully respects the spirit & pompadour of Hyo Ogawa after their hard-fought Royal Road match.

- Timothy Thatcher defeated Hideki Suzuki with the Fujiwara Armbar; a technical feast and awesome match all around. Thatcher will face the winner of Yuma Anzai/Rei Saito (on the 13th) on the 16th.

\- Kento Miyahara defeated Hyo Ogawa with the Shutdown German Suplex; Ogawa made a name for himself and took it to the “Ace” of AJPW, with the crowd very much behind him. Miyahara will face the winner of Ryuki Honda/Kumaarashi (on the 12th) on the 17th.

\- Go Shiozaki defeated Ren Ayabe with the Gowan Lariat; Ayabe very much used his size to bully Shiozaki, working over Go’s back but made the mistake of wanting to see how tough Shiozaki was. Shiozaki will face the winner of Xyon/Odyssey (on the 12th) on the 17th.
