Last stop on the Kizuna Road tour and I was most interested in here in the Okada/Anderson interaction as I know they have some big matches upcoming with the G-1. They get a decent chunk of this match with Anderson booting Okada hard in the corner, and Okada reversing his powerbomb into the inverted neckbreaker. Anderson gets off a bunch of neck breakers and does hit his big power bomb but Yujiro breaks up the pin, which makes him look pretty strong. Naito wins with Stardust on Yujiro. This was perfectly fine.

I didn't like this much at all. It was serviceable as a tag match but it didn't make me anticipate any further matches between Okada vs Naito & Anderson which was the point of the match. This instead felt like a functionally fine tag match with all four guys just waiting for the tour to be over so they can gear up for G-1. **1/2
