#5. The Young Bucks vs Evil and Sanada- IWGP Tag Team Championships

Following their classic bout at Dominion, both The Young Bucks and Evil and Sanada put up yet another outstanding back-and-forth bout against each other that saw both Sanada and Evil work on Nick Jackson in the early stages on the contest.

Evil and Sanada literally hit The Bucks with every single move they had in their arsenal and even hit the Magic Killer on several occasions, but weren’t able to pick up the win as both Matt and Nick kept on kicking out of every single offence.

At one point of the match, The Bucks accidentally kicked the ref as a steel chair was introduced into the match by Evil, however, much to his frustration, the chair would eventually wound up on his face as Matt and Nick ignited a comeback.

The champs finally hit The Meltzer Driver on Sanada for the win as they retained their tag team titles in their very first title defence.

Result: The Young Bucks def. Evil and Sanada to retain the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championships


#6. CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada and Will Ospreay) vs Los Ingobernables de Japon (Tetsuya Naito and Bushi)

Since losing the IWGP Heavyweight Championship to Kenny Omega, former champion Kazuchika Okada hasn’t been himself as of late, as ‘The Rainmaker’ came out to a new remixed version of his song and also sported a new pair of pants.

Okada and former Jr. Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay paired off pretty well with Naito and Bushi, both Naito and Okada had some brilliant back-and-forth offence with each other as they engaged into a wild brawl.

Meanwhile, Bushi and Ospreay also had some solid exchanges, as the latter successfully avoided the MX and connected with his new signature manoeuvre The Stormbreaker to pick up the win for CHAOS.

Result: CHAOS def. Los Ingobernables de Japon
