The match saw the quickness and kicking ability of Wato take on the power and submission ability of Sho. Wato proved he could hang at the top of the Junior Heavyweight division, giving Sho a stiff challenge and absorbing his opponents’ physical offense.

It was a swing match for Desperado, who could keep pace with the top of the BOSJ 27 table if he were able to capture the victory over his unit mate. However, the much improved Douki, who has seen his form grow exponentially over the past 18 months was able to give Desperado all that he could handle.

The second series match of the event saw “Way to the Grand Master” Master Wato take on Suzuki-Gun member Douki. On July 11th at the New Japan Cup 2020 Finals, Wato defeated Douki in his return match from an excursion in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL).

The third series match of the event saw former three-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion, BOSJ 25 winner, and Los Ingobernables de Japon (LIJ) member “Time Bomb” Hiromu Takahashi face Suzuki-Gun member Douki. While Douki came into the match winless during the BOSJ 27 campaign, his growth in form is clear to when he made his NJPW debut during BOSJ 26.
