Last JWA card for Seiji Sakaguchi and his followers: Seiei/Takashi (Kengo) Kimura, Masahi Ozawa (Killer Khan), Isao Oshiro, and Yonetaro Tanaka (referee) before joining New Japan.

Kimura (15min limit draw) Ito
Ozawa (7:16 pin) Hata
Sakurada (COR) Oshiro

This was said to be a shoot by Sakurada, who simply KO'd the bloody Oshiro outside the ring. Apparetly, Sakurada was showing his anger at Oshiro, who was leaving JWA with Sakaguchi to join New Japan. Sakaguchi was angry when he saw this and was trying to come out of the dressing room to help Oshiro but was held back by Kimura and Ozawa.
