Just like El Phantasmo and El Desperado have in A Block, Hiromu Takahashi and Taiji Ishimori now sit atop A Block. Both have six points leading Ace Austin, Alex Zayne and Yoh by two points. Ishimori beat Zayne in their match and Takahashi defeated Austin in their bout.
Ishimori made short work of Zayne dropping him with a La Mistica and making him submit to the Bone Lock.
Takahashi did his homework. He caught Austin as he was attempting his Fold finisher powerslamming him to the canvass. A Victory Royale and a Time Bomb pinned him.
The tournament continues on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday of this week. The finals are on June 3rd.
