Talk about it here.

After a very successful Stateside excursion Keiji Mutoh is now back in Japan and looking to rise to the top of the New Japan ranks. It's such fun seeing his fellow Musketeers Chono and Hash also levelling up around this time. They all had so much potential, which was realised to varying extents. The barrel chested Masa Saito had his strengths and limitations due to his physique. The powerhouses dominated the opening 5m, the challengers the next 5m is an even contest. The hot crowd were going wild for an exciting climax and wholeheartedly approved of the result. There was a rematch on 6/26 which is skippable.
