Tokihayate using his hips well to work his overarm throw against Oshoumi. The second throw puts Oshoumi over the line.

High intensity match as Ura and Tobizaru square up and look for position. Ura ends up with both feet on the straw and uses his amazing flexibility to bend backwards away from the Monkey's thrusts and recover to the center. Ura then takes Tobi to the bales and looks for a throw but he can't complete it and they both tear across the ring together with Ura landing on the clay as the Flying Monkey goes flying into the crowd. A monoii is called to see if Tobi's foot was out before Ura hit the deck, and it's too close so a do-over is called. The second time around they lock up from a distance until Tobi finds the positioning to shove Ura off the ring.

Roga with the BIG henka against Kinbozan, who found only air off the tachiai and hits the deck.

After a stalemate Mitakeumi sends Hakunofuji spinning on the dirt on his butt with an underarm throw. Mita still isn't looking all that confident in himself and at 33 I wonder if his best days are long gone.

Shishi still can't find his sumo as Nishikifuji gets an inside right off the line and positions himself 90 degrees to Shishi and drives him out handily.

Kirishima looking to defend his undefeated win streak against Gonoyama as Gono tries a slap down after the tachiai clash and puts himself back on the ropes. He parries Kiri's thrusts and they circle where Kiri tries a beltless underarm throw that doesn't succeed and puts them both back in the center. After some tsuppari Gono gets the position he needs to back up Kiri and over the straw with oshidashi.

This puts Kirishima tied with WTK and the Flying Monkey at 7-1 and 3 wrestlers just behind them with 6 wins.
