The 2024 G1 Climax tournament continued on Sunday in Nagoya with a round of B Block matches.
The card was headlined by Yota Tsuji vs. Ren Narita. Narita jumped Tsuji before the bell, throwing him into the barricades and a row of chairs. The 20-minute match also featured a couple of ref bumps and a low blow courtesy of the heel. Despite all this, Tsuji was able to prevail with the Gene Blaster to join Narita on 6 points.
The semi-main featured Hirooki Goto vs. Konosuke Takeshita. The action-packed 14-minute match featured plenty of high spots including Takeshita taking a sunset flip from the top rope. Goto won this tight encounter with the GTR and joins the AEW competitor on 6 points.
HENARE and Jeff Cobb faced off in a battle of the big men full of power spots and near-falls. Cobb would grab victory with the Tour of the Islands. HENARE remains on 6 points while Cobb advances to 8 points, sharing the B Block lead.
El Phantasmo picked up his second win of the tournament, defeating Yuya Uemura. The finish saw Phantasmo reverse a Deadbolt attempt into a roll-up for the pin. Uemura remains in the 6-point club, and Phantasmo advances to 4 points.
The tournament opener saw Oleg Boltin do well in the powerful grappler role against David Finlay. It was Finlay who would advance to 8 points, however, hitting the Overkill for the win.
