The leader of Bullet Club, “Switchblade” White was getting desperate for his first G1 points, and he headed to the ring with superior cheater Gedo at his back. Cobb looked extra shiny tonight, who was most certainly covered in baby oil.

The bell rang, and White rolled out of the ring as he did on night 6. When he came back, Cobb was happy to slam him into the mat, and White rolled out again to recover. They finally locked up in the middle of the ring, and a dropkick dropped White.

The turning point in the match was when Gedo came into the ring, forcing Red Shoes Unno to put his attention on keeping Gedo and Cobb from attacking each other. That allowed the villainous White to throw Cobb out of the ring, but Unno refused to start the 20-count.

White then brought Cobb back into the ring and put Cobb’s throat into the ropes after standing on his neck for a bit. A DDT didn’t land White the pinfall, nor did his submission hold make Cobb tap out.

Cobb rallied with a Samoan drop, but White countered by throwing Cobb into the mat by his hair. Cobb came up to give White 3 suplexes, hard chest chops, and an uppercut, but the pinfall didn’t happen.

White escaped Cobb’s Tour of the Islands finisher, returning the favour with two Flatliners and an Uranage judo throw. Cobb still slammed White during his combination attack, absorbing White’s kicks.

Cobb delivered a superplex from the second rope but failed his Tour finisher two more times before sending White into Unno by accident. Gedo came into the ring while Unno was down and attempted to take brass knuckles to White’s opponent, but he was foiled when Cobb completed his finisher on him.

White gave Cobb a low blow and a suplex but failed at his Blade Runner finisher. A second attempt connected, and White gained his first two points by pinning the Dragon.

Results: Jay White (2) def. Jeff Cobb (2)
