8. Best of the Super Jr. - Final: Minoru beat Tiger Mask (22:52) with the Minoru Special.
*Minoru wins the Best of the Super Jr. Tournament, denying Tiger Mask his 3rd consecutive win. Hiroshi Tanahashi gears up for his IWGP Title match with Brock Lesnar by defeating Giant Bernard (WWE's Albert) with a cradle. With Brock's contract up after this fight, and his inability to draw a lot more fans to New Japan look for Tanahashi to have a better than 50/50 shot at taking the belt in a months time.
