Gedo accompanied White to the ring, all but guaranteeing shenanigans. CHAOS’ Ishii is the good guy here, on a path of revenge against White and Bullet Club. Unno refereed this match.

Ishii thought faster than Gedo and kept ahead of White in a surprisingly strong start. White’s sniveling in the face of pain with Gedo on his side was a joy to watch. Ishii lost the upper hand after a meeting with the barricade and the ring post.

White’s taunting made Ishii more brutal, and Unno had to remind Ishii to play fair. White delivered DDTs, a brainbuster, and a neck-focused offense. Ishii refused to go down, power slamming the Switchblade. Fired up, Ishii seemed able to soak up unlimited damage, but he only needed to soak up more than White.

A German suplex combo from White put him back in control of Ishii’s neck but White’s mind games didn’t back up that promise. Ishii was the stronger man, delivering a top rope superplex and a high angle back-drop suplex to nearly put White away. A uranage put White in position to deliver a Kiwi Crusher, but it didn’t keep Ishii down or away from his suplex arsenal.

Gedo distracted Unno for long enough that White looked to have an advantage, but it was a vertical drop brainbuster that led White to eat the pin.

Result: Tomohiro Ishii (4) def. Jay White (0)
