5. Blue Stars: MIRAI vs. Momo Watanabe
I was looking forward to this and I wasn't disappointed. Momo as a conniving heel and MIRAI as a gentle and strong heroine. While it didn’t come close to MIRAI-Suzuki in quality, it was similarly a battle of young geniuses where both played their roles convincingly. MIRAI's juji-gatame counter of the Peach Thunder setup was amazing. The finishing sequence was also nicely done, with MIRAI confidently sidestepping Momo's wrench attack and landing multiple lariats for the win. ***1/2
8. Red Stars: Syuri vs. Himeka
This was another great match between Syuri and Himeka, who are well-suited as opponents. It was a sluggish, heavyweight style match that was carefully built up and peaked at the right moments. Syuri worked the leg with knee bars which came into play during a crucial period at the end. ***3/4
