A good match but one that didn’t particular strive to be much more than that. I am conflicted on that concept as its tough to critique a good match as being a failure but I really enjoy these four wrestlers and that combined with the limited Arsion footage we get in the first place left me wanting more. LCO is unable to bully the biggest bully in the yard in Aja Kong and her and Yoshida take most of the match. I like them as a tag team because the contrast in style is so easy to decipher. Finishing run has things breaking down and LCO picking up the victory which felt like an upset feat for them. ***1/4

The action was really good here, but I didn't like this one at all, I think mainly because of Omukai. I do like her, but I don't like her tossing Aja around and working her the same way she'd work with anyone else. There was plenty to enjoy about the match, but nothing really happening that pulled it together in a cohesive way, which admittedly could be clipping. I won't rate it. I'm probably being too hard on it, but I hate seeing wrestlers with a size difference work each other and pretend a size difference doesn't exist.

This exceeded my (low) expectations. Mostly because the amount of Shimoda/Omukai was limited, while the champs were in attack mode throughout. Which meant, big ol' bombs from Aja and twisty submission work from Yoshida. I thought Nu-LCO (Omukai had graduated to „Cachorra“ status at this point, right?) getting control was well done and things were difficult enough for them from that point onwards to keep the match interesting. Omukai landing her big crucifix bomb on Aja was a pretty impressive spot for a skinny girl. They timed their stuff fine, and while the action here wasn't anything new I thought it came together very well. Shimoda kind of redeems herself with her performance her by going at it with the submission queen.
