Kevin Kelly and Gino Gambino on English Commentary.

Match 1:  Karl Fredericks and Hirooki Goto vs. Chase Owens and Bad Luck Fale.  

Goto attempts a GTR on Owens, but KENTA interferes causing a disqualification for Bullet Club.   Fredericks and Goto pick up the win.   KENTA attacks Goto and locks him in a choke hold, then hits Goto with a PK.   KENTA nails a Go To Sleep on Goto.   KENTA sits on Goto’s chest and slaps him as he did to Katsuyori Shibata.   

Match 2:  Tomoaki Honma and Togi Makabe vs. Terrible and Shingo Takagi

Makabe pins Terrible with a King Kong (top rope) knee drop.

Match 3:   Manabu Nakanishi and Yuji Nagata vs. Tanga Loa and Tama Tonga, with Jado

Tama Tonga hits a low blow on Nakanishi and Tanga Loa forces him to tap out to the Operation Jado Killer (cross face).

Match 4:   Satoshi Kojima and Hiroyoshi Tenzan vs. SANADA and EVIL

Great match!  EVIL pins Kojima after hitting Everything is Evil.   Los Ingobernales de Japon get the win and remain in the lead for a IWGP Tag title shot against Guerrillas of Destiny at Wrestle Kingdom.

Match 5:   David Finlay and Juice Robinson vs. Yujiro Takahashi, with Pieter, and KENTA

Another great match!  Juice pins Takahashi with Pulp Friction.

Match 6:   SHO, YOH and Kazuchika Okada vs.  Tiger Mask, Jyushin Thunder Liger, and Kota Ibushi

Okada pins Tiger Mask with a Rainmaker.    

Okada baited Ibushi into the ring by kicking his briefcase into the crowd.  Ibushi leaped to the top rope for a dropkick but Okada hit him with his own dropkick.   Ibushi fell to the mat.   Okada took the mic to taunt Ibushi.

Match 7:   Colt Cabana and Toru Yano vs. Taichi, with Miho Abe, and Zack Sabre Jr.

Taichi and ZSJ tied up Cabana and Yano in the ring apron.  Yano and Cabana get counted out.   Suzuki-gun gets the victory.   Yano beat Taichi the same way back in the G1 Climax.

Match 8:  YOSHI-HASHI and Tomohiro Ishii vs. Lance Archer and Minoru Suzuki

This match quickly becomes a street fight with Suzuki-gun taking the fight into the crowd.   Ishii and YOSHI-HASHI take a beating. Suzuki vs. Ishii is amazing to watch.   The KIng beat on Ishii’s injured knee punishing him with leg submissions.  Ishii fought off the pain and was able to pin Suzuki after a brainbuster.   Ishii and YOSHI-HASHI get the win!

Great match!

YOSHI-HASHI takes the mic and warns Guerrillas of Destiny that they will beat them this Sunday which will give them another opportunity to face them for the IWGP Tag Team Championship.

World Tag Leaders:

SANADA/EVIL - 26 Points

Guerillas of Destiny, Finlay/Juice - 24 Points

World Tag League Finals on Sunday, 12/8/19.
