About 10 minutes of 15 shown. This starts out with a bang as Yokota misses a big dive to the floor and Cooga lands a Tombstone, then follows up with rabbit punches to the back of the head and Yokotas face, bloodying her. Cooga would continue to work over Yokotas neck, hitting another piledriver on a table and a big knee to the back of the head, while Yokota tried to make technical comebacks. This could've easily built to a classic but instead a wonky transition happens were Cooga apparently injures herself hitting a senton and Yokota just gives her the business hitting 2 kneeling piledrivers on the floor and then beating her with the double underhook kneeling piledriver. …

The early highlight here is Kong putting on a reverse Indian deathlock the way her partner so often does, and Kyoko successfully encouraging her to do her clap hands/hip shimmy move.

The "new" stuff came at the very end, when Hotta and Kong started trading submissions--a sequence that pays off with Hotta getting on a cross armbreaker and getting Kong to tap! That *feels* like a historic result, at least. Overall, this was fine, but inconsequential.
