He not only reached 10 points, but he also took Takeshita&#8217;s spot at second place in the B Block.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another benefit of this massive victory is having a better chance to enter the playoffs with a semi\u2019s bye, should he be able to take the top spot of the block, which currently belongs to previous tournament winner Zack Sabre Jr., whom he beat on day four. On the other hand, Takeshita is now in third place, still with a chance to enter the playoffs by securing a quarterfinal berth.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>ZSJ Beats Moloney, Holds on to Top Spot<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IWGP World Heavyweight champion Zack Sabre Jr. defeated fellow Brit Drilla Moloney to reach 12 points and keep the top spot in the B Block. The win also makes his case for securing a semifinals bye in the playoffs much stronger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, Moloney is still at eight points, but can still make the top three. However, it will be difficult, as his fate relies on the results of the final day of B Block competition on August 13.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Takagi Spoils Narita<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if Shota Umino won in the main event, Ren Narita would have been in second place if it weren\u2019t for Shingo Takagi. The Rampage Dragon thwarted him in the show\u2019s semifinal, raining in his parade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Takagi, who is already eliminated from playoff contention, now has eight points. Meanwhile, Narita dropped to fourth place and is in a must-win situation against his final block match against Konosuke Takeshita for him to make the playoffs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the other B Block match, NJPW World TV champion El Phantasmo got a second straight win when he beat YOSHI-HASHI. This loss puts YOSHI-HASHI\u2019s playoff hopes in even more danger, as he is also in the same boat as Moloney and will have to rely on the results of the other matches on August 13.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tournament action will resume on Sunday, August 10, the last day of A Block competition, headlined by the match-up between Yuya Uemura<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and David Finlay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"s1\">Header photo \u2013 NJPW \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on NJPW G1 Climax 35 and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
