Ospreay and Takahashi went toe-to-toe as the match began but Ospreay got the better of the opening exchanges and posed on the top turnbuckle. Both men traded strikes before speeding things up.

They continued to avoid each other's offense before Takahashi hit a hurricanrana. He looked to follow it up with a sunset powerbomb from the apron to the floor but had to settle for an apron bomb after Ospreay blocked the initial attempt.

The action spilled out to ringside once again as Ospreay hit a neckbreaker to the floor. Back in the ring, Ospreay locked in a submission hold. Both men went back and forth again before the action spilled out to ringside again. Ospreay charged at Takahashi who went for a Belly-To-Belly. Ospreay used the momentum to roll into the ring and followed it up with a Sasuke Special.

Back in the ring, Takahashi bought himself some time with a shotgun dropkick. Ospreay replied with a 619 and followed it up with a double stomp on the apron, leaping over one of the turnbuckles to do so.

After rolling Takahashi back in, Ospreay hit a dropkick to the back of the head from the top rope for a nearfall. Takahashi tried to crawl back to his feet as Ospreay booted him across the face and followed it up with the Cheeky Nandos in the corner.

Takahashi hit back with a Dynamite Plunger for a nearfall. Ospreay tried to reply with the Oz Cutter but Takahashi caught him in midair and blocked it. Ospreay maneuvered out and hit the Made In Japan for another nearfall. He headed to the top rope and followed it up with a Shooting Star Press but it was just another nearfall.

Unperturbed, Ospreay followed it up with an Oz Cutter but Takahashi kicked out again. Takahashi replied with a sitout powerbomb to buy himself some time.

Both Ospreay and Takahashi made it back to their feet at the same time and started trading forearms and strikes. Takahashi then caught Ospreay in midair and hit an elevated German Suplex. He followed it up with an incredible Canadian Destroyer to get a nearfall himself.

Ospreay tried to reply with a Storm Breaker but Takahashi broke free. Ospreay tried a Spanish Fly instead and hit Takahashi across the back of the head with the Hidden Blade. The champ went for the Storm Breaker one more time but Takahashi countered it again, this time with a Canadian Destroyer for another nearfall.

Takahashi looked like he had Ospreay in his crosshairs and hit the Time Bomb but it still couldn't keep Ospreay down for 3. Takahashi followed it up with a modified version of the Time Bomb to finally pin Ospreay and win the IWGP Jr Heavyweight Championship.
