Devitt will tomorrow be given his forfeit win over Tiger Mask, finishing him up on 10pts. I’ve added those now to the standings below although have not added 2pts for Ishimori yet, who is scheduled to face Fujita “Jr.” Hayato, another injured wrestler - who isn’t confirmed to miss the show as yet. Anyway, as it stands Ibushi, Devitt, and Richards have 10pts each. Having beaten Richards, Devitt is above him on the “direct confrontation” rule, but having lost to Ibushi, that puts Kota at the top. But tomorrow, Ibushi and Richards meet and the winner will take Block A no questions. If Liger beats La Sombra tomorrow, that creates another headache with he, Devitt, and the loser of Ibushi/Richards on 10pts. Block B is in a state of confusion also, but with Ishimori likely to get a forfeit over the injured Hayato, that almost certainly puts him through to the semis as he beat both Taguchi and Omega who share 8pts with him, while losing to the other one on 8pts, Kanemoto.
