Coming off some heavy losses, The Champion Okada and The Ace Tanahashi look to change their luck, but will SANADA pull out another upset win.

Tama Tonga vs. Hiroyoshi Tenzan

I am a little bitter about this match. Knowing how good Tonga is, I wanted him to show something more. I can understand that Tenzan is wrestling his last G1, but putting younger talent over can’t be a bad thing.

Tenzan gains the win after a match that looked very slow and both wrestlers looking a little lost.

1.5/5

Tomohiro Ishii vs. Hirooki Goto

MATCH OF THE NIGHT.

This match was not only my favourite of the show because of how great their back and forth sequences were but the shear energy coming from the crowd. Goto is a man who has lost his past 6 title shots, as a result is booed when facing more popular stars and Ishii a guy who has been in a very heavy loosing streak. Yet the crowd is with them 110%.

These two wrestlers have some great chemistry and there move sets compliment each other. This match had a very big fight feel, at times I had no idea who would win.

Goto pulls out the win after kicking out of a reverse Sliding D and hitting 2 GTR’s.

3.7/5

Bad Luck Fale vs. Naomichi Marufuji

I will be the first to say I am not the biggest fan of Fale and a long time fan of Marufuji. So I am slightly biased when saying I dont think Fale has a bone of talent in him.

Fale played the roll well, threw Marufuji around.

Marufuji displayed some great super kicks, seemed to get the advantage.

But no. Fale wins. (I am sour)

1.7/5

SANADA vs. Kazuchika Okada

What is there to say? Okada vs SANADA. Of course it was good. Of course it was a solid match. Who would be surprised. These two guys could have a fantastic match in an empty arena or in the Sahara desert.

Nothing too crazy, just a sold picture perfect match. Nothing to fault.

If you want to watch two guys who are at the top of there game then go check these guys out.

SANADA falls victim to The Rainmaker.

3.5/5

Togi Makabe vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi

Now the moment we have all come to witness. Will Tanahashi loose again in this G1 Climax. Well yes. Sadly not in good fashion.

The match seemed quite slow and jaggeder. What summed up this bout for me seemed to be a lack of motivation. They went out, put out an average match. Nothing seemed urgent.

Makabe hits a nasty knee drop from the top rope to Tanahashi, which I thought would have severed his head, but no just lost him the match.

2.3/5

*Insert sad Tanahashi face*

Tanahashi is probably still feeling the effects of his last match with Yano… poor guy.
