5 - Jado, Master Wato and Shota Umino vs. Taichi, DOUKI and SANADA
Shota Umino comes to the ring in a witch hat and passes out candy to the children in the crowd.
SANADA forces Jado to tap out to Skull End.
After the match, Umino attacks SANADA to break the hold on Jado. They separate, but Umino comes back to attack SANADA. The story is that SANADA does not think much of Umino and Umino wants SANADA's respect.
This match is trying to set up three matches. Umino vs. SANADA should be fine, but the crowd is not into this match. There is no reaction for this match from the Japanese crowd. Master Wato and DOUKI for the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship. This should be a good match. Lastly, Taichi is getting some ring time for his match against David Finlay for the IWGP Global Championship. However, Finlay is not on tour and not able to build any drama towards this match. This will be the main event at Power Struggle, and there is a lack of a storyline between Taichi and Finlay.
