The promotional logo of the 5 Units Survival Race (edited by BrentHarvanator)
The 5 Units Survival Races is a tournament that will be taking place during Dragon Gate's 2017 August tour that will culminate at Dangerous Gate in Ota. The concept was created by Masaaki Mochizuki and approved by Takayuki Yagi. The tournament was created for unit bragging rights between MaxiMuM, Jimmyz, Over Generation, Tribe Vanguard & VerserK, with the unit that scores the least amount of points come Dangerous Gate disbanding.
Beginning on August 5th in Kyoto and continuing through September 16th in Osaka all five units will participate in a league series called the 5 Units Survival Race. During this time period, all matches between units will be considered league matches, regardless of match composition. All units will participate in an equal number of matches during league play. Title matches, dark matches, and any match that also involves an unaffiliated wrestler will not be counted. The bottom two ranking teams at the end of league play will face off in a Unit Disbands match on September 18th at Dangerous Gate. The composition of this match will be determined by the amount of members of the participating units. For example, if both units have five members but a member of one of the units has a scheduled championship match then the disbandment match will be done 4 vs. 4.
