The top 2 in each block advance to the Finals. In Block A, a spot is Takahashi’s to lose-he just has to win his final match (X) to advance. Connors has the advantage among the rest, only needing to beat Fujita to advance on tiebreakers. Wato must win (Kanemaru) and needs Fujita to beat Connors to advance. Fujita must beat Connors and Takahashi & Wato must lose to advance on tiebreakers. Everyone else is out due to tiebreakers. In Block B, Yoh advances with a win in his last match (Ishimori), and Desperado will advance with a win (Eagles). MAO must win (Sho) and Yoh and/or Desperado must lose to advance because MAO loses tiebreaker to both. Sho must beat MAO and Yoh must lose and Desperado must win or draw to advance on tiebreakers (Sho beat MAO and Yoh but lost to Desperado). Everyone else is out.
The final day of Block A is Tuesday at Kira Messe Numazu in Shizuoka. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.
