Crowd with a "Okada!" chant. Okada looks for a tombstone, countered into a blade runner, but White can't follow up. Both on their knees, slowly throwing bombs at each other. White doesn't even have the energy to throw anything now as Okada still throws hefty forearms. Gedo comes in the ring and as Red Shoes tells Gedo to get out, White hits a lowblow. White looks for bladerunner, no, german suplex and Okada holds on for a rainmaker, no, backslide, no, bladerunner, no, back slide, no, rainmaker, nope, dropkick finally lands. Okada calls for rainmaker again, White throws some elbows and kicks, but Okada won't let go and Okada hits him. Rainmaker hits, spinning tombstone, rainmaker hits clean, pin, 1-2-3. Okada wins the title for the fifth time.
Winner: Kazuchika Okada via Pinfall to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
