This is a really good match but it's a step below the classic Battlarts tags. The interpromotional angle helps with team FMW making good heels. Yone is a really good face in peril and Ishikawa looks like he could snap anybody in that ring in half.

Pretty solid southern style tag. Ishikawa slugging with Tanaka may be infinitely more interesting than Tanaka slugging with anyone else, except maybe Hashimoto. Wasn't too hot on the face in peril section, I enjoyed Gedo working over Yone's face with nice punches and twisting the nose, but Tanaka was just running through his usual stuff and Yone, who is a real hit-or-miss type wrestler, wasn't hit here. Enjoyed Ishikawa's ferocity and twisting the fuck out of the garbage wrestlers, but this ended early and just felt like another match to further a feud.

Pretty fun match with Tanaka/Gedo muddying the BattlARTS waters. The interactions between Tanaka and Ishikawa were the high points of the match, including their little headbutt exchange, and vice versa, the Gedo/Yone matches were at the low end. We get a little brawling with Tanaka using chairs to put Yone on the rocks and Ishikawa seething to get in there and deliver payback. The choke out finish and refusal to letup was the cherry to top it off.
