Then, Yusuke Inokuma defended the Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship against Danshoku Dino in a Rubber Deathmatch, in which the two opponents had their crotches linked together by a rubber band attached to their briefs, dubbed Dai Ichin Pāren Seiha (大維チン八連制覇), a play on the "Great Pa-Lien (Unified Eight) Quaking Conquest" (大威震八連制覇, Dai Ishin Pāren Seiha) story arc in Sakigake!! Otokojuku, the manga that inspired Dino's ring name. The goal of the match was to be the first to retrieve the opponent's briefs. The match concluded when Dino hit Inokuma with a Reverse Danshoku Driver and removed his briefs to win the bout and become the 145th Ironman Heavymetalweight Champion.
