The villainous leader of Bullet Club was accompanied to the ring by Gedo and revelled in the crowd’s raucous boos. They were psyched to see Goto have a high-stakes match with White, cheering the CHAOS faction member. Gedo and White share a too-sweet sign as Goto prepared himself.

White immediately left the ring to open a steel chair...and offer it to Gedo, who sat with a smug smile to watch the action. White and Goto locked up in the ring before doing the same at ringside. Goto’s superior strength met White’s attempts at dominance, but Gedo made sure to keep White in the game.

Gedo’s sadistic smile served as a backdrop for White’s sending Goto into the ring apron, the railing, the ring edge, and the railing once more before rolling him into the ring. Red Shoes Unno kept White from pinning Goto after his illegal moves outside of the ring. White’s next attempt to pin Goto failed, but White’s submission hold and elbow strikes kept Goto from dominating the match.

White happily used hair pulling to attempt victory but Goto’s spinning clothesline stopped White’s momentum. White regained it with a trio of DDTs, but he couldn’t pin Goto. Mind games from White meant Goto took a suplex and a clothesline that laid him out.

Goto’s clothesline meant nothing to White, who taunted Goto and shoved Unno. As White put his attention on Unno instead of Goto, he took a series of strikes and a high angle drop for his hubris. Still, he grinned as he stayed low and took minimal damage.

A headbutt from Goto lead to a reverse GTR, and the men countered each other’s finishers in quick succession. White was no longer smiling. White kicked out of pinfall after pinfall, but Ishii’s finisher, the GTR, assured Goto’s win.

Result: Hirooki Goto def. Jay White via pinfall
