Cobb was able to use his size and power to slow Ospreay down repeatedly during the match, and that kept things highly competitive. Ospreay flew and kicked quite a bit, but Ospreay&#8217;s greater power since his return to NJPW didn&#8217;t really play much of a factor since Cobb is so much stronger. Also, Ospreay tried to get cute and mess with Cobb a bit near the beginning of the match, and Cobb wasn&#8217;t having any of that. Cobb took this match completely seriously, and he was able to counter many of Ospreay&#8217;s bigger moves while generally wearing Ospreay down throughout the match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 3<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>G1 Climax 30 A Block Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Yujiro Takahashi<\/strong> (0 pts) <strong>vs Kota Ibushi<\/strong> (10 pts)<br \/>\n(referee: Marty Asami)<\/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_69e5ea9f89ada','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_69e5ea9f89ada\" 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_69e5ea9f89ada\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Kota Ibushi wins via pinfall after Kamigoye<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 12:28<\/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 \/>\nGreat match. This was easily Takahashi&#8217;s best match in the tournament. Takahashi had a sense of danger about him mostly due to the fact that he had a chance to be a gigantic spoiler if he were to get his first two points tonight. Takahashi also had a lot of strong offense throughout the match, more than I thought he might get. The more offense Takahashi got, the more I felt like there could be some sort of crazy upset in this match. Takahashi tried to pull some of his dirty tricks on Ibushi, but Ibushi didn&#8217;t fall for most of them, or they just didn&#8217;t affect him much. The best attacks Takahashi had were straightforward, but that also left him open to attacks from Ibushi. The match built up nicely, and the final couple of minutes got a bit tense. I enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Intermission<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nThe ring is cleaned and sanitized during a brief intermission.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 4<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>G1 Climax 30 A Block Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Taichi<\/strong> (6 pts) (IWGP Tag Champ) <strong>vs Shingo Takagi<\/strong> (6 pts)<br \/>\n(referee: Marty Asami)<\/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_69e5ea9f89b0f','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_69e5ea9f89b0f\" 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_69e5ea9f89b0f\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Taichi wins via pinfall after Black Mephisto<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 16:21<\/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 \/>\nGreat match. Taichi started with his usual stalling tactics and ringside shenanigans (including using the ring bell hammer like he does so often), but after a while Takagi began to draw Taichi into a straightforward strong style match. Taichi can really fight when he wants to, and Takagi brought the fight out of him. Both men started exchanging many, many strikes, and this became a battle of toughness and will. Takagi seemed to hit harder most of the time, but Taichi was pretty smart about picking the right strike or slam for the right time. Taichi did try to cheat a little here and there as the match went on, but Takagi&#8217;s aggression kept the fight mostly clean. This was another really fun match from both guys.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 5<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>G1 Climax 30 A Block Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Jay White<\/strong> (10 pts) w\/ Gedo <strong>vs Minoru Suzuki<\/strong> (6 pts) (NEVER Openweight Champ)<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_69e5ea9f89b41','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_69e5ea9f89b41\" 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_69e5ea9f89b41\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Jay White wins via pinfall after Blade Runner<\/strong> (and a low blow)<br \/>\n<strong>Time: 20:30<\/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 \/>\nA great, frustrating match. Jay White attempted his shenanigans on Suzuki early in the match, but Suzuki took the fight to White. White wanted nothing to do with Suzuki face to face in the center of the ring, but after a certain point in the match he had no other choice. White took a serious beating, and he endured some vicious submission attempts. Most wrestlers might get drawn into a striking contest with Suzuki, but White is smarter than that. He&#8217;s frustratingly smart. White&#8217;s best attack was to go after Suzuki&#8217;s leg to try to cut him down, and he did that repeatedly. White&#8217;s other best attack was Gedo distracting Suzuki and the referee from ringside. Despite rarely getting fooled by White directly, Suzuki really had no choice but to pay attention to Gedo at times, and that cost him. The finish was frustrating, but it was very well done.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 6<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>G1 Climax 30 A Block Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Tomohiro Ishii<\/strong> (6 pts) (NEVER 6-Man Champ) <strong>vs Kazuchika Okada<\/strong> (10 pts)<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_69e5ea9f89b71','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_69e5ea9f89b71\" 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_69e5ea9f89b71\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Kazuchika Okada wins via Referee Stoppage with the Money Clip<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 26:13<\/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 \/>\nGreat match. Despite both men being members of Chaos, neither one of them held back in this match. Ishii was more aggressive earlier in the match, and he laid into Okada with some vicious and at time illegal strikes and chops. Okada had to absorb a lot of punishment early and often, and he had to find a way to start dealing some punishment back. Okada&#8217;s pace was more methodical than he might usually be, but that&#8217;s likely just because Ishii was aggressive to the point where Okada could only get in some shots between Ishii&#8217;s attacks. As the match went on it became clear that Okada&#8217;s attacks were starting to build up, but Ishii has a way of not reacting to pain or fatigue until after he&#8217;s unleashed a retaliatory barrage. Late in the match, Okada started going for the Money Clip after his double leg cradle and Rainmaker didn&#8217;t get the job done. Okada had trouble getting the Money Clip around Ishii&#8217;s think neck, but he kept working on it which led to an exciting finish.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was a really good show. This late in the tournament it&#8217;s easy to have the matches involving the block leaders get tense and exciting, but this show also had great matches from guys that have already been eliminated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Tomohiro Ishii vs Kazuchika Okada<\/strong><br \/>\nThis was one of those nights where the matches more or less got better as the night went on. The first tournament match of the night was great, and each successive match got incrementally more exciting for me. So naturally the main event would be the best match, though I&#8217;d happily watch any match on this show again.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration:
