Prince Devitt vs Hiroshi Tanahashi- Destruction
Prince Devitt and Hiroshi Tanahashi had an amazing rivalry in NJPW, with the former picking up a vital win over 'The Ace' back at Dominion 6.22. However, on this occasion, things were a lot different due to the unusual Lumberjack match stipulation added to it.

The Bullet Club, as usual, made their presence felt once again via their outside interferences, but Tanahashi and his fellow babyface lumberjacks were smart and eventually succeeded in getting the upper hand on The Biz Cliz.
Additionally, the crowd also reacted very well to each outside interference from both parties, and the numerous amount of near falls in the closing stages made things a lot more interesting, as both men were seemingly closing in on a huge victory.
It was Togi Makabe who eventually cleared the house in an astonishing manner, when he took care of Fale, Anderson, and even Devitt. He thus allowed Tanahashi to hit the Styles Clash of all moves, which was then followed up by the High Fly Flow as 'The Ace' went on to pick up a huge win over the ace of The Bullet Club.
