Notes:
- The first match of the evening was the most competitive and hardest hitting of the evening. Neither team wanted to take a step back, and it would appear that a new rivalry is brewing amongst these four competitors. Kenneth Marshall did his best to stay with the massive Uehara, and did extremely well in his efforts. Roger Stevens and Gakuto Fija both have tempers, and Fija was successful in pushing Roger Stevens to the brink. Stevens had Fija on his back, while he was in the mount position and was blistering him with heavy shots. Stevens was so intent on doing damage that he neglected the referee's five count. When this fell upon deaf ears, the referee tried to get between the two men, and when Stevens sees red, nobody can stop him. The referee ended up getting clobbered and tossed aside which promoted the DQ decision. Marshall pleaded with the official and told him that he shouldn't have inserted himself in a physical way. Uehara and Fija smiled, and alluded to the fact that there wasn't a beatdown fierce enough that would sideline them. Marshall didn't take too kindly to the gesture, but by then it was already too late. The referees decision was final, and 3 points were given to the two men from Okinawa.
- Satoshi Watanabe was backstage, and warned anyone who had aspirations of becoming a champion in BRAVE. Watanabe said that he was going to be anywhere and everywhere, and that while some might argue that he has passed his Prime - Satoshi assured the audience that he was the best version of himself. In the best shape of his life, and with a multitude of experience to coincide with his physical attributes. Watanabe closed by saying that The Shining Stars would defeat The Speed Dragons once again to secure their place at the top of the tag team rankings.
- The second match of the evening pitted two teams with zero points against one and other. While the KYOTO:CRUSH are exciting to watch, and take to the sky with the best of them - they fell pray to I-69's style of fighting in this contest. Wayne Sherlock made it a point to ground the exciting duo with submissions and technical work on the mat. Sherlock was finally able to break Imura's defence, before locking him up in a nasty camel clutch that earned I-69 there first victory in the SUPER Tag League.
- After confronting Kai Fukuda on Night 1 - Crossfire lobbied to showcase his sumo skill, much like Fukuda had done with his Judo. The big man was as wide and strong is the day is long, and he made very short work of the three men that Mr. Sakamoto found to try and derail him. Regardless of their experience, the show was awe inspiring. Crossfire moved with quickness and precision to dominate his foes. The Sukuinage technique was on full display. In the third round, Crossfire used a vicious slap down - which is referred to as a Hatakikomi to send shockwaves through the arena. After all was said and done, Crossfire called out Kai Fukuda, hoping to have Mr. Inoue book the two of them against each other in the near future.
- The final match of the evening pitted the dominant BRAVE duo of The Shining Stars against arguably their biggest rivals over the past year - The Speed Dragons. In fact, it was after a year of competing against each other that brought White Light II and The Black Jaguar together in respect - but also their respective dislike for the Shining Stars and how they carried themselves both in and out of the ring. The fans knew they were going to be treated to a hard fought battle between two teams that knew each other extremely well. In the end, it would be the double team strategy from the Speed Dragons that earned them the victory. After cutting off the ring with precision, the duo are both known to use The Brain Buster to finis their opponents - so why not use it in tandem. The OHH'S and AWWE'S from the respectful crowd in Osaka was all you needed to hear, to realize what a big deal that finish was. The crowd applauded the two fan favourites, as they seemingly have set themselves up as one of the favourites to win this tournament after two matches.
Satoshi Watanabe walked to the ring with his arms folded and seemed incredibly displeased with the outcome of the match. Watanabe stopped short of physically attacking his understudies - but it was very clear that they had let him down. Lord knows what their training will look like over the next week as they prepare for Night 3 of the tournament.

Reactions:
- In the backstage area after their match, Kenneth Marshall stopped short of indicating he was upset over the result of their match. Stevens was still angry, and pacing around the backstage area to blow off steam. Marshall said he knew what he was taking on when he asked Roger to team with him. To his core, Roger is a fighter, and sometimes our emotions get the better of us. Marshall suggested the two of them would adjust going forward and be at their best for their next match in the tournament.
- The Tidal Wave duo sits atop of the standings, and they aren't lacking in confidence. They have the biggest man in the completion, and Fija showed a lot of heart out there going toe to toe with Roger Stevens. Uehara snarled before stating that the pain and suffering of their foes was merely in its infancy.
- Crossfire reiterated his challenge to Kai Fukuda after his Sumo Exhibition. Crossfire believed he would show the wrestling world who the better man was, and which discipline was the most dangerous.
- The Shining Stars refused to comment on their loss to the Speed Dragons. Ito and Kondo had their bags with them, and left the arena under the supervision of Satoshi Watanabe.
- White Light II and The Black Jaguar were all smiles after earning the pinfall victory over their biggest rivals. 'WLII' spoke of their recent excursion to Canada and how that brought them closer together. They credit their desire to compete and never quit attitude to their recent success. They believe that they are now the team to beat in this tournament.

Vibe:
- Crossfire brings out tons of emotion when you see him operate. The menacing power and nasty streak he possess make him a very dangerous man. The fans were whispering in regards to whether Kai Fukuda should accept the challenge laid out for him.
- The crowd was behind The Speed Dragons all the way. The expectation has changed, and they are now in a position to take the lead, as opposed to fighting from behind.
- The fans stayed around after event and were thrilled to see Daisuke Shinzaki had made himself available to sign autographs. Shinzaki hinted to the fans that he was going to make his debut with the company very soon.
