INTERMISSION
Mao, The Yellow Barbie steps into the ring for her interview segment.
Mao: Please welcome to the ring.... Go Shiozaki.
Shiozaki: Let's get this over with. I have things to do.
Mao: Well one thing you're not doing tonight is competing. Why?
Shiozaki: Maybe because no one here in RSW has the guts to face me in the ring. Mr Inoki wanted me here so badly. Then leaves me off the show. What a waste of resources. I am the Main Attraction here. Leaving me off the show just shows this place will fail. Just as his International Fighting Spirit company went flop years ago. That's right... I went there.
Mao: Well you certainly did. But the way I heard it was you didn't show up for a meeting and THAT'S why you were left off the show...
Shiozaki: Mao... that sounded like you were calling me a liar. If you were a man. I would have broke your jaw. But don't think I wont slap you.
(Then we hear some music and walking down the aisle is a familiar face to fans of the UWF.)
Nagata: Shiozaki, you truly have no honor. That is why I am here. To dole out Blue Justice. So at our next show FULL ALERT. I will step in that ring and give you a lesson about respect.
Shiozaki: Nagata-san! Wow! A former World Heavyweight Champion is here... Big... Deal... That was ages ago and you are a shell of what you were. You want to teach me a lesson? At FULL ALERT I will be the one teaching. I will teach you to keep your nose out of my business. Next time I see you, it will be GO TIME!

He rolls out the ring and Pieter is rubbing the small of his back. Marufuji looks tired of all the delaying here.

7TH BATTLE
Mike Bennet w/Maria & AoP VS KENTA
....VS....
The entire Kingdom stable is here and KENTA is of course alone. Kevin Kelly informs the viewers that in Japan. Disqualifications are rare and that outside the ring they are very lenient. Should someone run in to the ring or use a foreign object inside the ring that would be an automatic DQ. But on the outside the referee will let a lot go until the 20 count. Professor Tanaka says he enjoys the CWX way where anything goes all the time.
As the match gets going we see while KENTA is a superior technical wrestler that Bennett is holding his own. Eventually KENTA wears him down & has him in a Horozontal Hammerlock. Maria is yelling at KENTA trying to get into his head but he pays her no mind. Mike gets a reversal and gets out of the hold he lands a boot then drops a right hand to the jaw as the technical part of the match is seemingly done. KENTA retaliates with some chops that sound like gun shots here in the Maishima Arena. KENTA Irish whips him but Bennett reverses and nails a Kitchen Sink. Now Mike sends him to the floor where Rezar and Akam drop him neck first across the railing. Referee tells them to back off him. Bennett is out there and Suplexes KENTA on the floor. Then returns to the ring as the count begins. KENTA looks a bit battered but is in by 13. Mike stays on him hitting a Sit-out Sideslam for a 2 count. Then KENTA catches Bennett with his Busaiku Knee to the head. Both men are down. Kenta slowy rises and covers but Mike kicks out at 2. KENTA then hits a Falcon Arrow. 1.. 2..
NO! He then tries for the GTS but Bennett has it scouted and instead slips out and lifts KENTA on his shoulders... Photo Finish (Fireman's carry cutter)! 1.. 2.. NOOO!!! He looks for a Piledriver but KENTA backdrops him. Corkscrew Roundhouse Kick connects. He goes to the apron for a Slingshot Legdrop. Akam grabs his leg. He kicks him in the face then does a Hurracanrana out on the floor to him. Rezar chars but Kenta Drop Toes him into the barricade. He returns to the apron. For the slingshot Legdrop but misses. Spinning spinebuster from Bennett. 1.. 2.. NOOO!!!! Bennett now signals for a finish but KENTA instead hits a series of kicks. He now picks him up for the GTS. Maria is on the apron and grabs Mike's boot trying to pull him away. This distracts KENTA as the referee warns her of being DQed. But the that lapse in focus allows Bennett to wriggle free and School boys KENTA with a handful of tights out of the view of the referee. 1.. 2.. 3!
Winner: Mike Bennett
(The Kingdom don't even celebrate their huge upset because they know they just stole one. The crowd is not happy as KENTA is complaining to the referee. Bennett and Maria are halfway to the back when they turn back and laugh then give each other a passionate kiss.)
MAIN EVENT
Minoru Suzuki VS Hirooki Goto
......VS......
Before the start of the match RSW President, Antonio Inoki enters the ring he wishes both men good luck before leaving to a ringside seat. Minoru is joined ringside by his Suzuki-Gun members, Akira Tozawa and Taka Michinoku. This match pits 2 of the best examples of the "Strong Style" that is associated with Puroresu. These guys take no quarter nor give any. Suzuki is more of a Submission-Brawler while Goto is a Technical Striker. We get a lot of trading of strikes between the two. Mostly stiff elbow shots. After one of these exchanges Minoru headbutts Goto which staggers him backwards but he the responds with a Tokko Lariat (Discus lariat). He lets off a few kicks to the chest of Minoru. Who grimaces after each one but grits his teeth and stands yelling at Goto "Come on!". Goto winds up for a big kick. He lets it fly and Suzuki catches it and puts him in a Heel Hook. Goto is in trouble he is trying to make the ropes but Suzuki isn't going to just let him. Goto is now really writhing. You can see the pain etched on his face. He raises his hand... But reaches with one last stretch and grabs the bottom rope.
Goto rolls to the floor and has a serious limp. We see Tozawa ans Michinoku move close but Goto balls up his fists. He forgot about Suzuki who nails him from behind. Now all 3 kick him a couple of times before the referee puts a stop to it. Suzuki sends Hirooki back in. He looks for the leg again but is nailed by 2 upkicks from Goto's other leg. Spinning back elbow connects then Goto lifts him on his shoulders for Ushigoroshi (Fireman's carry neckbreaker). He covers 1.. 2.. NO! Suzuki staggers to the buckle. Goto presses his advantage and executes Muramasa (Spinning heel kick to a cornered opponent). Goto yells out for the Shouten Kai. But Minoru blocks it and counters into a Brainbuster. He covers 1.. 2...
Noooooo!! Suzuki goes into a Sleeperhold. He has beaten many a competitor with this hold. Goto is scrambling but Suzuki has it on tight. Goto gets him on his back and Backpedals into the corner hard. Minoru loosens the grip slightly but doesn't release but its enough for Hirooki to get his hand in there and slowly force his way out. Just when he is almost free Suzuki switches to a waistlock and German Suplexes Goto on his head. He covers! 1.. 2.. NO!!!! Crowd is giving a great hand for these 2 men. Suzuki slaps the chest of Goto who responds with chops to his. They trade back and forth. Then Minoru tries to sneak in a kick but Goto was ready. He catches the leg and hits a Capture Suplex. Then hits Go to Heaven (Olympic slam). 1.. 2..
NOOOO!!!!! Goto pulls Suzuki up but he gets caught with a back elbow. Then a Lariat from Minoru. He pulls him up... Gotch Piledriver! Suzuki covers 1.. 2.. Nooooooooo!!!!! The crowd is going crazy as is the announce team. Tozawa and Michinoku are slapping the mat encouraging their leader to carry on. Minoru lets out a yell. He pulls an almost limp Goto up again. Looking for a 2nd Gotch Piledriver. But Goto springs to life hitting multiple elbow strikes to the jaw. He lands a stiff headbutt right to Suszuki's face. He hooks him... GTR (Spinning headlock lariat into a backbreaker)! 1.. 2.. 3!
Winner: Hirooki Goto
(Both men are laid out as the crowd give a rounding ovation. Akira and Taka are checking on Suzuki. Then after a few moments Goto has a microphone. He puts over this great crowd. Mr Inoki and everyone for making this night a special one. Then also puts over the "Toughest Man in Japan" Minoru Suzuki. He offers him a handshake and bow. When Suzuki is about to take it Taka and Akira attack Goto. But quickly running down for the save is Speed Muscle. They chase Suzuki-Gun from the ring as the show ends.)
