GHC National Champion, Kenoh (35), teamed with his teacher, Jinsei Shinzaki (54), to defeat Kaito Kiyomiya and Daiki Inaba (32), and it was Shinzaki, the eldest, who made the venue the most exciting. He said humbly, "I had to do my best, as Kenoh is the one who always incites." However, the 54-year old dressed in white, was the one who took the lead, and was as strong as Kiyomiya, who is less than half his age. He dodged head scissors with a light maneuver to the bug applause of the venue, and demonstrated the prayer walk in which he walks on the ropes like tightrope, showing a perfect balance. 
Kenoh could not afford to lose to the technique of his master who set it up one in succession, and after the middle stage of the match, fought with a diving double knee drop and a lariat. In the end, Shinzaki passed the baton to him after using a Powerbomb, and he took the pin over Inaba with the PFD (Professional Foot Stamp).

Still as sharp and as constant in technique as he was in the old days, Kenoh praised, "Thank you very much. Jinsei Shinzaki is still Jinsei Shinzaki". 
Even so, perhaps the damage was too great as Shinzaki revealed his true opinion saying, "I could barely keep up. Just barely. I don't want to tag with Kenoh anymore". 

Both Kenoh and Shinzaki are from Tokushima, and attended the same High School, so when Kenoh entered Michinoku Pro, he received coaching from Shinzaki. The teacher said, "I've been steadily watching his evolution. He has grown into a wrestler who carries the world of wrestling for his generation. I am very happy to see the rise of Michinoku Pro's number one". Additionally he thanked Kenoh for promoting his restaurant, "Tokushima Ramen Jinsei" and his "Jinsei gymnastics", his fierce face relaxing for a moment. 

At the end Kenoh shouted to the fans, "Even under these circumstances, your dreams will surely come true. With Kongoh, let's have a big dream together!". 

Kenoh, who has achieved growth by tagging with his teacher, catching up to his seniors he sets out on a new path.
