In the second match dubbed "14th Anniversary Memorial Match", Sanshiro Takagi and Mitsuya Nagai represented Jakai Tensho, Poison Sawada Julie's "Serpent Council" stable, by wrestling respectively as Sanshiro Dokumamushi (毒蝮三四郎, Dokumamushi Sanshirō, "Venomous Viper Sanshiro") and Mitsuya Jagai (蛇我井満也, Jagai Mitsuya, "Snake Pit Mitsuya").
The fourth match was the first stage in a series dubbed "Bob Sapp's Games" where Sapp would send surprise "assassins" to try and take out Danshoku Dino before their match on July 24, at Ryōgoku Peter Pan 2011. The first "assassin" was Jonathan Gresham who made his first and only DDT appearance.[4]
Next was the "KO-D Openweight Championship Contendership + α Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract Royal Rumble", a Rumble rules match in which the winner would receive a title match against the KO-D Openweight Champion on May 5, at Max Bump 2011. Additionally, two envelopes were suspended above the ring. Each envelope contained a Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere contract, giving their holder the right to challenge for any title at any moment in the next year. Grabbing an envelope resulted in being eliminated from the match.
