TMDK (Jonah & Bad Dude Tito) vs. Team Filthy (Tom Lawlor & Royce Isaacs)

Team Filthy corners Tito to start the match. Tito takes a pretty sound thrashing but fires up to tag Jonah back in. Lawlor and Isaacs continue their winning strategy against Jonah to no avail. Isaacs gets run over by a Thesz Press and then dropped with a Black Forest Bomb from Jonah for the pinfall in 8:38.

Winners: TMDK (Jonah & Bad Dude Tit0)

United Empire (Will Ospreay, Jeff Cobb, Aaron Henare & Great-O-Khan) vs. Bullet Club (EVIL, El Phantasmo, SHO & Dick Togo)

Wild brawl to start. Phantasmo and Ospreay hash out their animosity after their previous G1 match. SHO and Dick Togo are in especially impish form, causing shenanigans left and right. At one point, United Empire tried to quarter Dick Togo. Eventually Jeff Cobb used Togo as a weapon to beat up the other Bullet Club members, then threw Togo to Henare who forced him to submit with a Full Nelson in 7:52.

CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada & YOSHI-HASHI) vs. Toru Yano & Ryohei Oiwa

Yano is absolutely vicious to Okada. Oiwa is especially determined to prove he can hang with the other three men, but YOSHI-HASHI is quick to make sure the young lion doesn't get too cocky. Okada starts to get some momentum against Yano. Oiwa tags in and YOSHI-HASHI tag in. Oiwa delivers some heated offense but is stopped in his tracks by YOSHI-HASHI, who submits him with a Butterfly Lock in 7:26.

Winners: CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada & YOSHI-HASHI)

Hiroshi Tanahashi, Tomohiro Ishii & Kosei Fujita vs. Bullet Club (Jay White, Juice Robinson & KENTA)

Fujita is so determined to make a name for himself in this match that he points at Jay's IWGP World title. Fujita puts up a valiant fight but Bullet Club completely dissects him. Ishii is able to get involved in the match and trade blows with Jay White, and Tanahashi also tries to protect the Young Lion but the Bullet Club trio is simply too unified.

Fujita brings the fight to KENTA but to little avail, Fujita nearly taps to a Boston Crab but the hold gets broken up. KENTA finally locks Fujita in Game Over for the submission in 10:30.

Winners: Bullet Club (Jay White, Juice Robinson & KENTA)

After the match, Ishii tried to kill Jay White but was broken up by the ring attendants, and White got away.

Los Ingobernables de Japon (Shingo Takagi, SANADA & BUSHI) vs. Suzuki-gun (Taichi, TAKA Michinoku & Zack Sabre Jr.)

SANADA and his old rival Sabre have some incredible exchanges in this match, though Taichi was just as eager to get some blows in on his upcoming G1 opponent. Suzuki-gun eventually got BUSHI by himself and made the junior heavyweight pay. TAKA took some shots at SANADA and even tried to submit him with a crossface but SANADA fought back, embarrassed TAKA with the Paradise Lock and then latched on Skull End for the submission in 8:17.

Winners: Los Ingobernables de Japon (Shingo Takagi, SANADA & BUSHI)

There is a brief intermission.

D Block: David Finlay (0) vs. Yujiro Takahashi (0)

Finlay tries to outwrestle Yujiro to start but Yujiro brings the match to the outside, where Finlay gets planted on the ramp with a DDT. Yujiro is in his element on the outside but once Finlay brings it back into the ring he gets control back, slamming Yujiro in the corner and dropping him with a neckbreaker.

Yujiro tries to bring it back to the outside but eats a plancha from Finlay and gets slammed onto the apron. Finlay gets Yujiro back in the ring and starts to build serious momentum with nearfalls, but the referee gets distracted, giving Yujiro the opportunity to capitalize with Big Juice for the pinfall in 12:59.

Winner: Yujiro Takahashi (2)

B Block: Tama Tonga (0) vs. Chase Owens (0)

Tama attacked his former stablemate from the word "go." The brawl spills to the floor where Owens superkicks Jado. The two get back in the ring and go back and forth. The turnbuckle gets exposed. Tama starts to get some momentum and hits Supreme Flow for a nearfall.

Owens counters a Gun Stun with a C-Trigger to the back of the head. Both men trade finishing attempts, back and forth, Gun Stun to Package Piledriver and back again. Owens sends Tama into the exposed turnbuckle but Tama counters the Package Piledriver with a slingshot into the exposed buckle followed by a Gun Stun for the win in 13:18.

Winner: Tama Tonga (2)

A Block: Lance Archer (0) vs. Bad Luck Fale (0)

Both men spend the match throwing punches and slamming each other. Neither man can get any real momentum since they're so similar. The high impact offense on such a large opponent tires both men out quickly. Fale uses this exhaustion to his advantage and Archer is unable to meet the 20-count and is counted out in 10:46.

Winner: Bad Luck Fale (2)

C Block: Tetsuya Naito (0) vs. Hirooki Goto (0)

Naito keeps the match grounded at all costs, as Goto tries to strike and overpower his way to victory. Just when Naito thinks he's got Goto in his clutches, Goto switches up his strategy and starts bringing his own submissions to the table.

Naito comes back with a series of huge moves, including a big Destino, but can't get the win. Goto has simply too much fire behind him, the attacks don't phase him the way they normally do. Naito tries for his big moves again but Goto comes back with a huge GTR to get the shocking upset win in 22:41.

Winner: Hirooki Goto (2)
