Kalisto vs. Akira Tozawa
Bit of a stalemate between both wrestlers. Tozawa with plenty of "Ah!" chants early on, finally gets Kalisto grounded, stomps away at his opponent in the corner. Kalisto tries to fire back, but is put down with a hard punch. Kalisto gets going, springboard attack, hurricanrana sending Tozawa's head to the mat. Tozawa recovers and heads up to the top rope, Kalisto stops him, hits a headbutt and lands a spanish fly. He bounced off the rope though instead of doing the usual jump.
