The Neo Genesis team of Starlight Kid, AZM, Suzu Suzuki, and Mitsuyoshi Amasaki faced off against the STARS team of Saya Iida, Hazuki, Koguma, and Momo Kogo in an eight-person tag team match. The two teams had not faced each other in an official match in the unit-versus-unit league, but Neo Genesis still has a strong chance of winning the championship. Currently, Neo Genesis is at the top of the Blue Block. Whether they advance to the finals will depend on the outcome of the official match between Cosmic Angels and H.A.T.E. First, they want to win this match decisively and then await the results. On the other hand, STARS is in a tough position to advance to the finals, but regardless of the league matches, they want to further strengthen their unity.
Koguma called out to Neo Genesis, "Who wants to do a bear pose?", and Amasaki went first. They approached each other in a bear pose and did the bear pose together. After exchanging high-fives, Koguma said, "Thank you as always." Immediately after, they exchanged elbows, with Hazuki putting Amasaki in a headlock and AZM putting Koguma in a headlock. Koguma charges in, creating a 2-on-2 battle. Koguma and Hazuki deliver dropkicks. Kid and Suzuki interfere, but Kogo hits them both with a body attack.

Kid hits Hazuki with a dropkick and a standing moonsault. Hazuki retaliates with a series of elbows. Koguma joins in with a dropkick and a DDT, and Hazuki hits a Codebreaker, a senton, and a face lock. However, NeoGen intervenes. Kid hits Hazuki with a series of elbows and a fisherman suplex. Hazuki hits a Codebreaker, and Kid and Hazuki's elbows collide, sending both down. They both dodge the strikes. Iida hits Suzuki with a series of reverse chops. Midway through, Suzuki deliberately takes the hits and counters with an elbow, followed by a jumping chop from Iida. STARS hit Suzuki with a combined face crusher, but Neo Gene interfered. Iida prepared to hit Suzuki with a brainbuster, but Suzuki resisted and managed to throw Iida. Suzuki countered, and Neo Gene dodged Iida's charge and launched a series of attacks, including dropkicks from four directions. Suzuki hit Iida with a modified back suplex. Iida countered, and then reversed Suzuki's German suplex and rolled him up for a pin. Iida dodged a kick and hit Suzuki with an Iidabashi, but Kid managed to interfere. In the ensuing scuffle, Iida hit Suzuki with a body attack, and Suzuki rolled him up for the three count.
Suzuki: "Hey, wait a minute, that hurts, that hurts. If you keep doing chops, I'll send you back to the zoo again!"
Iida: "That's what I want, damn it!"
Suzuki: "Osaka, are you all excited? That's right, we have another Osaka tournament next month, did you know? Awesome, awesome. On February 2nd at Korakuen Hall, I'll be fighting Saya Kamitani for the red belt. By the time I come to Osaka next month, I'll already be the champion, so look forward to it. And then there's the unit league that's going on right now. Who's up next day? H.A.T.E. and Kozuen will be competing, and that'll decide whether we can make it to the finals or not. Pray for us. Apparently, if you win this unit league you can challenge for two belts of your choice. So let's win and take all the belts home! So everyone, please come to the Osaka tournament next month!"
