Jake Lee vs Takuya Nomura
- I'm a bit biased because I love Nomura and am very happy to see him main event, but this was still a fantastic display of his ability to fight a guy twice his size. Jake is still great, it took a little while for me to gel with his Total Eclipse character but now i'm very into him

Yumehito Imanari (c) vs Shigehiro Irie - Spirit of Ganbare World Openweight Cahmpionsip

HM
Yuna Manase and Yoshiko Hasegawa vs YuuRI and Moeka Haruhi
- Hasegawa's first match in over a year and while her stuff was good if a bit sloppy, the main draw for me was Manase being a hoss which she is great at

Max the Impaler and Hartley Jackson vs Taison Maeguchi and Wizuki Watase
- A different match for Max after their TJPW ones, these guys are quite a bit bigger and harder to throw about with abandon

HARUKAZE vs Makoto
- Harukaze is very limited in the ring, thankfully Makoto was able to bridge the gap by beating the poo poo out of her

Kawamatsu, a politician who had done some fun stuff with DDT before decided against all reason to have a debut match.... and it was really good! The match was a lot of fun and Kawamatsu threw EVERYTHING he had into wrestling it, despite clearly being utterly exhausted by the reality of doing a full match (in a suit!). Highly recommend this.

- Rookie battle is rad, DDT dojo turns out some great performers

Naomi Yoshimura, Kota Umeda and Keisuke Okuda vs HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi and Hideki Okatani
- Goddamn this was so great after the Pheromones match, just six guys with intensity to spare taking pleasure in hurting each other. I would love to see Umeda and Okuda in DDT more, especially if they continue tangling with Eruption

Shinichiro Kawamatsu, Sanshiro Takagi and Soma Takao vs Osamu Nishimura, Makoto Oishi and Akito
- This is the kind of wrestling/politics integration other companies dream of, Kawamatsu was very sloppy in places but considering he's a full time member of parliament i'm willing to give him a pass

Jun Akiyama and Saki Akai vs Chris Brookes and ASUKA
- A simple story told perfectly, this is the first mixed tag match of Akiyama's 30 year career and he doesn't know how to treat Asuka at the start of the match, but then he gets over himself and starts to beat her like he would any other competitor

Masahiro Takanashi (c) vs Yuki Ueno - DDT Universal Championship
- A nice cooldown after the hardcore insanity, just a very well worked match between two talented guys, albeit with a pretty poor looking ending

It's such a shame Pheromones continue to exist and be popular because DDT is so drat good otherwise

Just fantastic stuff from both guys, and an ending I adored.
