-Jimmy Jacobs made his debut and tried to recruit the Young Bucks to join him, but they turned him down. Genki Horiguchi and Ryo Saito ended up helping Jimmy beat up The Young Bucks.
(3) Naruki Doi beat Bryan Danielson in an incredible match. Danielson came out with no music, so the crowd sang his "The Final Countdown" theme. The match was back and forth throughout. Doi ended up winning after hitting the Doi 555 into the muscular bomb for the pin. After the match Danielson asked other indy wrestlers to take his crown as "the best in the world" while specifically naming Davey Richards. This was very similar to C.M. Punk putting over Delirious on his way out of IWA-MS. After Danielson's speech, the crowd sang his theme again. (22.26)
(4) CIMA beat Brian Kendrick with the air raid crash into diving double knees. CIMA was said to have been way over with the crowd. Match was said to have been good, but not great.
(5) Davey Richards beat Shingo after forcing him to tap to the koji clutch. DGUSA announcer Lenny Leonard said this was one of the best matches he's seen in ages on Facebook. Fan reaction is extremely positive with many people in attendance calling it an incredible all-out in-ring war. (25:45)
After the match, Richards and Danielson were in the ring. He got big heat for refusing Danielson's request to take his place on the indy scene as the best wrestler in the world. Richards ended up beating down Danielson before leaving.
(6) Ryo Saito & Genki Horiguchi beat The Young Bucks in what was said to have been a great main event. The match involved mist blown in the face and a ref bump with the Young Bucks getting a visual fall before the finish.
