Tomohiro Ishii (6) vs. Toru Yano (6)
Yano, the greatest agent of chaos in NJPW, was ready after taking Moxley down on night 10 to humble Ishii tonight. He primed the ring pads for freedom as the Stone Pitbull scowled his way down to the ring.
Yano smacked Ishii into the exposed turnbuckles and used his shirt to attempt three pinfalls. Once he was outside of the ring, he sat in an audience chair and taunted Ishii mercilessly. Yano took the taunt until the 19-count and came back to absorb the night's first singles match beating.
A powerslam left Ishii standing above Yano and gloating. His little kicks woke Yano up and the men traded elbow strikes and right hands until it was Ishii on the mat. They traded pinfall attempts and Yano kept Ishii acquainted with the turnbuckles.
Yano began to bloom with new strength and resilience, though Ishii's headbutts and lariat took some of his momentum. They reversed everything the other pulled out, from throws to roll ups. Ishii's impressive vertical drop brainbuster ended the series of reversals with a win for the Stone Pitbull. Strength beat craftiness.
Results: Tomohiro Ishii (8) def. Toru Yano (6) via pinfall
