KUSHIDA started the match on complete control, making Tiger Mask feel a bit like the underdog.

There was a really nice sequence where Tiger Mask hit a diving cross body but KUSHIDA transitioned into a double wristlock before transitioning again into a cross arm-breaker.

El Desperado started the dirty tactics right away, going under the ring for a chair which he managed o use early in the match. El Desperado kept the dirty tactics going throughout the entire match, forcing BUSHI to wrestle as a babyface (which makes sense because tons of people like him and Los Ingobernables). There was some brawling at ringside and the match only got into the ring for an extended amount of time towards the end. I liked the finish as well. It wasn&#8217;t spectacular, but it worked for the tone of the match and for both of the characters.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, BUSHI attacked El Desperado at ringside. They brawled for a few seconds before El Desperado again removed BUSHI&#8217;s mask. BUSHI went down and the young boys at ringside covered his face. El Desperado took BUSHI&#8217;s mask, as well as the mask BUSHI used during his ring entrance, and wiped his shoes with them. El Desperado threw both of BUSHI&#8217;s masks down before leaving the ring area.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 7<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Best of the Super Junior 24 B Block Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Volador Jr. vs Ryusuke Taguchi<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Red Shoes Unno; ring announcer: Kimihiko Ozaki)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e6037c928cc','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e6037c928cc\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e6037c928cc\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Ryusuke Taguchi wins via pinfall after a Dodon <\/strong>(chickenwing facebuster)<br \/>\n<strong>Time: 9:58<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nThis started out as a but of a comedy match. Volador ran the ropes and Taguchi couldn&#8217;t keep up, then Volador forced Taguchi to run the ropes and he tired out quickly. The match then nicely transitioned into a somewhat competitive match. Taguchi was dominant for a while, breaking out a dive over the ropes and a few submission holds. Volador came back and hit some big moves, but Taguchi never seemed to stay down long. This was a nice match, and it was somewhat surprising for me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 8<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Dragon Lee &amp; Ricochet &amp; Juice Robinson &amp; Satoshi Kojima vs Hiromu Takahashi<\/strong> (IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champ)<strong> &amp; Tetsuya Naito<\/strong> (IWGP IC Champ)<strong> &amp; EVIL &amp; SANADA<\/strong> (NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Champs)<br \/>\n(referee: Red Shoes Unno)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e6037c92922','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e6037c92922\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e6037c92922\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Tetsuya Naito pins Satoshi Kojima after Destino<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 10:54<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nThis match was not aired on NJPW World.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nI was only able to see the half of the show published on NJPW World, but I thought all of those matches were good. I like how NJPW shows always seem to have a good variety of matches. It&#8217;s usually the same people on the shows, but the matchups are different and on any given night any of the wrestlers might have a different type of match. For example, on this night Volador Jr. did a little comedy and BUSHI wrestled as a babyface. I like how the mix things up like that.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>KUSHIDA vs Tiger Mask<\/strong><br \/>\nOf the matches I saw, this was my favorite.
