The IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Title Match would see Jado pull the referee out of the ring as the titles were about to change hands, allowing Tanga Loa to hit Tanahashi with a title belt. The Guerrillas Of Destiny would then team up on Kota Ibushi but he would duck and Tama Tonga would accidentally knock Tanga Loa out with another title belt shot. Kota Ibushi would then take Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa & Jado out, prior to brining the referee back up. Tanahashi would then deliver the High Fly Flow on Tama Tonga to get the pin for the finish.
