Following Saturday’s show, NJPW’s on-going Best of the Super Juniors 2018 tournament enters its final block stage this Sunday with the winners of each block to advance to the finals on June 4th at the Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan.
For Block A, if Taiji Ishimori manages to defeat Yoh, he will be declared the winner of the block. If Yoh defeats Ishimori and Will Ospreay defeats Flip Gordon, Ospreay will be declared the winner of Block A. If both Ishimori and Ospreay lose their final block stage match, the winner will be declared based on a tiebreaker system.
For Block B, if Marty Scurll manages to defeat Sho, he will enter a tiebreaker system with KUSHIDA and Hiromu Takahashi. If Sho defeats Scurll, then the winner of the KUSHIDA versus Hiromu Takahashi match will be declared the winner of the block. If Scurll wins and the KUSHIDA versus Hiromu Takahashi match ends in a draw, Scurll will be declared the winner of the block.
