Notes:
- The KYOTO:CRUSH finally got the monkey off their backs, and earned their first victory of the tournament. The two young lions were over the moon, as they were able to isolate Joseph for the majority of the match, before Imura was able to capitalize on the mat and force Joseph to submit. The fans in the arena went wild for the victory, as it's evident the crowd has been in their corner from the beginning of the tournament. Now that they've turned the corner, they'll look to bring the fight to the Speed Dragons in the final match of the tournament.
- The Shining Stars looked as impressive as ever in their victory over Tidal Wave. The two grapplers from Okinawa have proven their worth, and are a forced to be reckoned with in BRAVE. However, they find themselves on the short end of a mini losing streak. Kondo and Ito just seem to be fighting for their lives every time they set foot inside of the ring, and this is no doubt been embedded in their psyche from Satoshi Watanabe's training. Kondo executed the most impressive act of strength thus far of the tournament where he was able to get Uehara up in a power bomb position, before extending his arms and sending him down for his last ride. The ring shook, as Kondo fell forward to make the cover to make the victory official.
- Daisuke Shinzaki would finally make his much anticipated debut against Akihiro Sagawa. It took nearly the entire twenty minutes, but Shinzaki was eventually able to finish Sagawa with a nasty double undertook driver. Throughout the contest, Sagawa was right there with Shinzaki, which spoke volumes about his preparation as well as his wrestling skill. To some, this was a major surprise, as Shinzaki is held in such high regard and has fought many of the biggest stars in Japan over the past five years. Sagawa crept up from relative obscurity in small circles, and showed that he's capable of wrestling with the best in Japan. The fans saluted Sagawa's efforts, and after the match the two warriors exchanged a hand shake. Sagawa then said, he would appreciate another opportunity to fight Shinzaki. Sagawa said he felt like he could beat him! The fans roared, as Shinzaki said he wouldn't have it any other way. So it appears as though these two will lock horns once again in the near future.
- The final match of the evening will go down as the night that the tournament changed. For ten minutes, these teams were at a dead heat, but Marshall and Stevens seemed to be gaining momentum. In the first KO of the tournament, the brawny Marshall used all of his size and leverage to whip Black Jaguar head over heels and snapped him backwards on his head. Marshall went for the cover and secured the win for his team. After the pinfall, it was clear that Black Jaguar was out of it. He hadn't moved, and his leg shook a little bit while he was unconscious. The medics emerged from the back, and were checking his vitals. Marshall and Stevens stayed in the ring until Jaguar finally started to stir. A hush had fallen over the arena, as it was clear that this could be tremendously serious. The medics put Black Jaguar on a gurney and carried him out of the ring to the back. The arena, including Stevens and Marshall applauded. In an act of sportsmanship, Marshall and Stevens shook hands with White Light II and the three of them followed the medics backstage to remain by Black Jaguar's side.

Reactions:
- Imura and Tanaka were all smiles and first pumps after their first victory. Now that they had broken the proverbial seal, they felt as though a lift in confidence was all that they needed for continued success.
- The Shining Stars under the orders of Satoshi Watanabe once again skipped their media appearance. Watanabe did however stop to say that until the tournament was over, and the Championships were in their possession - his men wouldn't utter a spoken word to the media. One media member pressed and asked Watanabe what he thought about the match between Daisuke Shinzaki and Akihiro Sagawa. Watanabe snarled and said he didn't pay attention, and that if either of them wanted to get on his radar then they needed to say his name.
- Daisuke Shinzaki was humble, knowing that he was put to the test by one of the best Jr. Heavyweights in BRAVE. While Shinzaki didn't want to downplay his own accomplishment, he did speak highly of Sagawa's skill inside of the ring. Shinzaki noted that he would be more prepared for their next battle whenever that would be.
- Kenneth Marshall was somber in victory, noting just how serious the sport of professional wrestling can be. Marshall said he executed the move with vicious intent to secure a victory, and had no intention of harming his opponent beyond that. But Marshall reminded the media that 'these things can happen' inside of the ring at any moment. Stevens spoke about Black Jaguar's courage, and noted that The Speed Dragons had given them their toughest test of the tournament.
- White Light II said the doctors were still examining his partner, and that he was concerned about the possibility that The Speed Dragons might not be able to continue in the tournament should the injury to his partner be severe. White Light II said he didn't fault anyone for what happened, and said that this was part of the risk that everyone takes when they sign up to fight the best wrestlers in the world.
--
Vibe:
- The arena is electric for KYOTO:CRUSH's first win. The underdogs finally put it together.
- The fans can't help but marvel at the seriousness The Shining Stars have brought to their matches over the past two events. After a slow start, the duo could still mathematically qualify for the finals of the tournament.
- Akihiro Sagawa left the arena with much more star power in his pocket than he came in with. We could be witnessing the birth of a superstar.
- The show closed on a somber note with Black Jaguar being taken away on a stretcher. Kenneth Marshall and Roger Stevens earned major points with the audience for their sportsman ship and empathy to their fallen opponent. The Final leg of the tournament is a week away, and there are lots of questions that need to be answered between now and then.
