In the final night of A Block competition the World Tag League tournament saw The Bullet Club War Dogs come out on top of the division. Sanada and Gabe Kidd defeated Bishamon (Hirooki Goto and Yoshi-Hashi) to claim the top spot in tonight’s main event. Sanada distracted the official so that Kidd could low-blow on Yoshi-Hashi. Kidd gave Hashi a piledriver and Sanada pinned him with a Deadfall.

In unfortunate news, the match between TMDK (Zack Sabre Jr. and Ryohei Oiwa) and The United Empire (Jeff Cobb and Callum Newman) was called when Newman’s knee appeared to twist and collapse while he and Oiwa fought on the top rope. Newman crashed down onto the arena floor in obvious pain. TMDK took the win but were very disappointed by the outcome. Cobb and officials attended to Newman who limped to the back with Cobb and a Young Lion supporting him.
