Yuji ‘Blue Justice’ Nagata returned to his hometown of Togane in Chiba to celebrate the milestone of his 35th year in the wrestling business on night four of the Destruction tour. Nagata teamed up with long-time friends Manabu Nakanishi, Satoshi Kojima, Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Jyushin Thunder Liger to take on Bullet Club’s Bad Luck Fale, Jado, Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa and Yujiro Takahashi.
Jado insulted Liger so both men started off the match. Jado asked Liger to shake his hand. Liger was reluctant to shake Jado’s hand but eventually shook his hand and the Bullet club attacked Liger from behind.
This resulted in a big brawl with all the men from each team fighting inside and outside of the ring. Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa double teamed Kojima in the ring. Tama imitated Kojima’s machine gun chops. Kojima was placed in the Bullet club’s corner and the members attacked Kojima.
Kojima tagged Nakanishi who dominated Bad Luck Fale. Nagata ran into the match to double team Fale. Nagata followed up with an armbar, which the Bullet Club broke up. Nagata applied the Nagata lock on Jado who tapped out.
