The tournament matches could end by pinfall, submission, knockout, TKO and Ring Out. Also draws would have eliminated both wrestlers from the tournament. Some of the wrestlers took a straightforward approach. Yukio Sakaguchi and Makoto Oishi for example each wore a karate gi and had a normal grappling contest. Then things got weird for a little bit.

Pokotan wore boxing gloves and was programmed to fight as such until Tanomusaki Toba literally kicked its head off. Saki Akai took on a sukeban attitude and attacked Hoshitango with a bamboo sword. She also had a plastic bag containing something suspicious that she inhaled. Kazusada Higuchi pulled the bag from her which accidentally caused Akai to fall out of the ring. Things got back to normal when HARASHIMA beat Keigo Nakamura in a normal fight.

The semi-finals both ended with Ring Out finished. Toba knocked Sakaguchi off the apron with a Right Hook. HARASHIMA knocked Hoshitango through the ropes and out of the ring with the Somato. In the final HARASHIMA trapped Toba in a Half Crab to make him tap out.

Yuki Iino approached HARASHIMA at the end of the show to talk about their KO-D Openweight Title match on 24th November. Iino said he wants to beat HARASHIMA so he can begin his own era. He did a bit of the Haka to startle the champion. HARASHIMA recognised the enthusiasm but said he will definitely beat Iino and defend the title.
