Only Yagami remains in the ring and approaches Koguma, raising her hand. Shuri says, "You're not going to do a bear pose, are you!" Yagami declares "No!" to Koguma's bear pose and tags in Kashima. Koguma appeals to Kashima, saying, "I'll show you how it's done, watch this," and Kashima pretends to do a bear pose... but then pulls off a last-ditch comeback.

With 8 minutes and 38 seconds remaining, they went for the third fall. "This time it's a bear!" Koguma approached Yagami. The two started the match, and Koguma did a bear pose. Yagami started to do it, but nodded at Shuri's words, "You're not going to do it, are you?" Yagami bowed and said, "Let me decide for myself!" He made Koguma do the bear pose and rolled him up from behind. When Koguma retaliated, Yagami said, "I'm not going to do a bear!" and delivered a soccer ball kick.
