Pre Show: Shallow Tag Ranks
Tencozy (Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Satoshi Kojima) vs. Yuji Nagata and Manabu Nakanishi
The second pre-show match for night one features a special tag team match, with the established team of Tencozy taking on the other half of the remaining New Japan Dads. Considering that the New Japan tag ranks are very low on quantity and quality, it is fair to assume that this match, despite its position, will hold importance for the coming shows or roadshows in the year.
Being the established tag team means Tencozy should do good as a mellow placeholder feud for the champions coming out of night one. Unfortunately not much is expected from the contest, which is most likely to plod along as the crowd files into the dome.
It's weird to consider that both pre-show matches, besides the heated presence of Young Lions, could end up a disappointing warm up for the crowd. Hiroyoshi Tenzan could act as the lynchpin of the match with the energy to go, however, not much else is expected for sure.
Result: Hiroyishi Tenzan picks up the pin as Tencozy wins the big tag team match
