6. Nagoya Specialty Doerya 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & HARASHIMA defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Chris Brookes & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (13:56).
Keigo Nakamura made his entrance wearing a handmade Jun Akiyama costume created out of paper. Needless to say, the real Akiyama got annoyed when he saw it and he tore it off Nakamura when they wrestled each other. HARASHIMA saw the bright side and gave kudos to Nakamura after the match. Akiyama though said he will never forgive him. He blamed Makoto Oishi for this and Oishi tried to pass the blame over to Kazusada Higuchi. Backstage Chris Brookes said that Higuchi is like a different person compared to the last time they teamed together when Higuchi was getting ready for a KO-D Openweight Title match. He bets Akiyama will probably be afraid of Higuchi. A defeated Nakamura promised he will become bigger than Akiyama some day.
There were some problems between Antonio Honda & Yuki Iino because Honda thought Iino was wasting his time doing the Haka before his moves. He tried to guide him into doing a Bionic Elbow but Iino went back to doing the Haka. He then argued with Honda and left the ring so Honda had to fight DAMNATION on his own. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo almost bullied Honda into submission when Iino returned wearing a Honda-like costume to rescue his tag partner! Honda & Iino successfully did the Bionic Elbow together and then tried the Haka together until Honda tripped and hurt his knee. It was to set up Gongitsune but DAMNATION recovered and got the win in the end.
Match #2 ended before Nagoya’s own Akito even had a chance to do anything. Hisaya Imabayashi demanded a complete restart, including the entrances so Akito could get the hometown hero treatment. Yukio Naya thought that was the perfect time to roll up Saki Akai and try to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Akai kicked out which counts as a successful defence outside of matches. Imabayashi got mad at this and told Naya and Kazuki Hirata to switch teams for the restart. Akito got to wrestle in the match this time and Hirata promised everyone Akito was going to do a Phoenix Splash! Akito climbed the turnbuckles but Hirata didn’t have the strength to Body Slam Naya. Instead Naya’s dead weight collapsed on top of Hirata and Hirata got pinned for the three count. A confused Akito remained standing on the top turnbuckle while everyone else left the ring. He then took the time to thank the fans for coming before quickly exiting the ring.
