Alex Gracia |
*The other two are Tora Natsuko and Onozaki Reo
A four-way match featuring Natsuko Tora, Reo Onozaki, Hana Kimura, and Alex Gracia. Will it be structured as JAN vs. Hana & Gracia? Or perhaps an unconventional 2 vs 1 vs 1 match? A complex web of human relationships is likely to unfold as everyone competes for the single winner
Hana raises her hand, inviting them to a four-point lock. Hana breaks free and charges, but all three hit her with a big boot. Hana and Gracia are cornered, and JAN joins in, delivering a series of spear attacks. However, Onozaki attacks Natsuko. Onozaki goes on the offensive and delivers a body slam. But Hana comes in, and Onozaki and Natsuko join forces. Gracia intervenes and hits JAN with a body attack. Gracia throws Onozaki into the corner, but he dodges. Natsuko hits both of them with a spear. Hana and Natsuko exchange shoulder tackles, and Hana charges after a thumb to the eye. However, Natsuko hits her with a spinebuster. Hana dodges Natsuko's back blow and applies a ground卍 lock. Onozaki breaks up the hold, and Gracia hits Hana with a dropkick. Onozaki and Gracia combine for a face crusher. Onozaki and Gracia cover Hana one after the other. Onozaki hits Gracia with a series of elbows. Gracia knocks Onozaki away with a dropkick and then hits her with a 619. Natsuko tries to interfere, but Gracia dodges and hits Onozaki directly. Hana attacks Natsuko with a weapon from the apron as she charges. Hana and Gracia are left in the ring. Hana forcefully rolls Gracia up and she can't kick out, so Hana gets the three count

AZM |
Sakai extends her hand for a handshake, which AZM accepts. As soon as the gong sounds, AZM delivers a dropkick. AZM had been unusually meek, but she quickly reveals her true nature, yelling "You old hag!" and attacks Sakai. Sakai dodges the spear attack and grabs AZM over the ropes. Sakai escapes to the outside. AZM looks annoyed, saying "This is really annoying." AZM chases after her to the outside, but Sakai runs away. Azumi uses a mack at ringside to stop Sakai. She then delivers a foot stomp, but the cover is not allowed. Sakai tries to force a submission with a cobra twist, but AZM adamantly refuses. Sakai changes direction and attacks AZM's legs, applying a figure-four leglock. AZM reverses the hold, leaving Sakai in agony. Sakai returns and demands a submission, but AZM rebels, yelling "Shut up, old hag!" AZM escapes to the ropes, but the damage to her leg is undeniable. AZM dodges Sakai and delivers a missile kick and a running dropkick. She then follows up with a diving foot stomp. AZM tries to stand up, shouting "Get up, old hag!", but Sakai grabs both of her legs and puts her full weight on her. AZM is unable to recover, and Sakai wins

Saya Iida● |

Queen's Quest, featuring Momoko Watanabe and Konami, will face off against JAN, featuring Jungle Kyona and Saya Iida, in a tag team match. How Kyona guides rookie Iida will likely be key to the match, but this bout is a preview of Momoko and Kyona's upcoming match for the white belt. What kind of tactics will unfold leading up to the Wonder of Stardom title match on March 3rd in Nagoya? Will Momoko and Kyona clash in the lead-up to the big showdown a week later!?
Iida volunteered to go first, saying, "I'll go. Let me go." Kyoka sent her out, and Iida faced Konami. After a cautious start, Konami went for Iida's arm, but Iida fought back. Konami put Iida in a headlock on both sides, but Iida escaped and delivered a dropkick. However, Konami quickly retaliated. QQ followed up with a dropkick from Momo and a jumping knee from Konami in a series of corner attacks. With Iida immobilized, Konami took her to her corner. Momo entered and delivered a soccer ball kick. Momo pulled Iida up and delivered a body slam. Iida kicked out, but Momo locked in a camel clutch. Kyoka interfered and tried to break up the match, but Konami eliminated her, and Iida remained trapped. Momo delivered a soccer ball kick and then pinned Iida with one knee. Iida dodged a dropkick and retaliated. Iida asked for a tag, but Momo wouldn't allow it. Momo stomped on Iida and took an elbow, but stood up. Momo stood defiantly in front of Iida. Iida charges in with a series of elbows, but Momo knocks her down with one hit. Momo then kicks off Kyoka, who is waiting on the sidelines. Iida lands a dropkick and tags in Kyoka. Kyoka hits Konami with a shoulder tackle, then hits Momo with a body attack, a dropkick, and a low lariat. She also delivers a body press over the apron. Kyoka and Momo exchange elbows. Momo lands a series of elbows and charges in, but Kyoka counters with an elbow. However, Momo counters with a dropkick. Momo goes for a B-Driver, but Kyoka rolls her up. Momo goes for the pin, but it's only a two count. Momo climbs to the corner, but Kyoka hits her with an elbow from below. Kyoka gets in position for a Muscle Buster, but Konami breaks it up. QQ goes for a Brainbuster, but Kyoka slams both of them down at once. Momo dodges Kyoka's lariat and rolls her up for a Soumatou. When Kyoko returns, Momo goes for the tequila. Kyoko counters, and Momo lands a high kick, but Kyoko endures it and delivers a lariat. Both Momo and Kyoko are down. Konami tags in and attacks Kyoko. Kyoko also entrusts the match to Iida and sends her out. Iida lands a series of dropkicks and a flurry of elbows on Konami. However, Konami counters with a middle kick. Iida goes for a reverse pin from a small package. Kyoko forcefully assists the reverse pin with a lariat, but Konami manages to escape. Konami catches Iida's charge and grabs her arm, but Iida is spared at the ropes. Konami then lands a low dropkick, but Iida manages to escape. Konami attempts a fisherman suplex, but Kyoko manages to break it up just in time. Momo takes Kyoko out of the ring. Iida tries to roll her up again, but Konami kicks out. Konami goes straight for a triangle lancer. Iida gave up and Konami was declared the winner. However, outside the ring, Momo and Kyoko were fiercely fighting. Momo returned to the ring and celebrated her victory with Konami. From the ring, Momo provoked Kyoko, and they glared at each other from across the apron

*Utami Hayashishita, the 4th champion, successfully defended her title for the first time
Utami Hayashishita, who defeated Viper at Korakuen Hall on January 14th to become the first Japanese SWA champion since the inaugural champion Io Shirai, will be making her first title defense. Currently, Hayashishita holds four titles, but how she uses her title matches will be a challenge. SWA title matches mainly involve facing foreign opponents, and since her debut, Hayashishita has remained undefeated against foreign wrestlers, although she has had some draws. Will she once again demonstrate her strength against foreign opponents? Or will Bobby Tyler inflict her first humiliation?
From a lock-up, Tyler gets behind Utami and locks her arm. Tyler tries to regain control and twists, but Utami escapes and puts her in a headlock. Tyler throws her into the ropes, but Utami sends her flying with a shoulder tackle. Utami slams Tyler down with a body slam, then goes for another one. Tyler pretends to throw her into the ropes but pulls her hair and slams her onto the mat. Tyler slams Utami's right leg onto the mat and puts it on the second rope and applies a chokehold. Tyler goes for the pin, but Utami kicks out. Tyler complains to the referee that the count is too slow. Utami goes in with an elbow, and Tyler attacks her right knee. Tyler goes for a leg breaker and pins her, but only gets a two count. Tyler kicks Utami's right knee. Tyler, perhaps feeling confident, also complains to her second, AZM. Tyler provokes Utami by saying, "How's that?" But as Tyler charges, Utami hits her with a dropkick. Tyler throws Utami into the corner and delivers a running elbow attack before slamming her to the mat. Tyler lands a series of elbows, but Utami retaliates. Tyler feints and kicks Utami in the right knee. Five minutes have passed. Tyler pulls Utami up and charges into the corner for a complete shot. Utami kicks out, and Tyler counters with a shoulder throw. Utami lands a lariat, and both go down. Tyler throws an elbow and charges in the corner. Utami dodges and lands a missile kick. Utami declares she's going for the finish and takes Tyler's back, but Tyler rolls her up. Tyler pulls her up and lands an elbow followed by a double kick. However, Utami's shoulders go up for a two count. Tyler hits Utami with a lariat. Utami dodges and transitions from an Argentine backbreaker to a German suplex. Tyler is unable to move and is counted to three, with Utami successfully defending her title
Comment from Utami
"I successfully defended my title for the first time. My impression of foreign fighters is that they are really good at joint locks and things like that. Today, my knee was attacked so hard that I was worried if I would be able to continue the match, but I won this belt from Viper, so I have to protect it carefully. Today was my first title defense, but I want to defend it many, many times in the future and protect this belt carefully."

*Andras Miyagi wins by being the last one standing
The main event will be a 5-on-5 elimination match between STARS and Oedo Tai, a full-scale battle. For Mayu Iwatani, Saki Kashima, and Tam Nakano, and Kagetsu, Hazuki, and Natsu Sumire, this will be a preliminary match for the Artist of Stardom title match to be held in Nagoya on March 3rd. Furthermore, Cassandra Miyagi, now known as Andras Miyagi, who made her debut as "Oedo Tai's new member X" at the Korakuen Hall event on February 17th and immediately achieved her first Stardom victory, will be making her full-fledged debut at this event. Whether Oedo Tai will be further energized by Miyagi's addition will be a major point of interest. Iwatani and Andras previously faced each other in a one-on-one match in the final match of a rivalry with Sendai Girls, and Iwatani, in the second match of the day, defeated Miyagi and played a key role in the comeback victory in the rivalry. Iwatani and Miyagi will be reuniting for the first time since then. Since both have grown, an even more intense battle can be expected
When Kagetsu was called in, she proudly displayed her red belt in front of Iwatani. STARS offered a handshake, but Kagetsu replied, "There's no way I'm shaking your hand." The Oedo Tai attacked all at once, and the match began. Brawls took place all over the ring. Almost simultaneously, the Oedo Tai returned to the ring with STARS in their grasp and provoked them with headbanging. However, STARS began to fight back. They grabbed Andras and all of them delivered dropkicks. Kashima managed to turn the tables on Andras. Andras reversed and pinned Kashima, making her the first to be eliminated. Andras focused her attack on Kid. Natsu delivered a series of stomps to Kid. She dodged a running elbow and drove Kid into the corner, then stomped on his face. Natsu delivered a Bronco Buster to Kid followed by a body slam. Natsu stopped pinning Kid and went for a one-legged cover. She declared she was going for the finish and pinned him in an Inrin-sama-like position. However, the pin was broken up and she couldn't get the three count. Five minutes had passed. Kid hits Natsu with a hurricanrana followed by a 619 and a standing moonsault press. Kid is countered and hits a dropkick from the side, but Hazuki interferes and breaks up the hold. Hoshiki breaks up the hold, then Kagetsu, Nakano, Andras, Hayter, and Iwatani break up the hold and Kid hits a dropkick, but Natsu rolls her up for a pin. Kid tries to reverse but is only counted to two. Kid is rolled up by Natsu and leaves the ring. Oedo Tai focuses their attack on Nakano. Kagetsu picks Nakano up and sprays her with water. Andras sends Nakano out of the ring. Kagetsu brings Nakano back up and hands her to Andras. Andras hits a body slam followed by a neck lock. Nakano escapes and Hayter hits Nakano with a body slam and a series of elbow drops. Hayter picks Nakano up. Nakano comes forward with a series of elbows but Hayter takes her down in one hit. Nakano hits Hayter's needle with a dropkick. Iwatani arm whips Hazuki and Andras. Iwatani and Hoshiki exchange kicks. Nakano takes a big boot from Hayter but retaliates with a neckbreaker.

Nakano is then subjected to a corner attack by Oedo Tai, but Iwatani intervenes just in time, saving Nakano. Nakano hits Hayter with a high kick. Iwatani, Hoshiki, and Nakano exchange kicks. From there, Nakano pins Hayter with a Violet Shooting. Nakano puts Natsu in a figure-four neck lock. Hazuki, Hoshiki, Iwatani, and Andras are all linked together. Kid interferes with a foot stomp. Nakano prepares for a brainbuster on Natsu. STARS and Oedo Tai attempt a brainbuster. STARS throws her. Iwatani hits Natsu with a low dropkick and goes for a German suplex, but Natsu resists and kicks her in the groin. Natsu dodges a thrust kick, dodges a lariat and hits Iwatani with a towel. 15 minutes have passed. Natsu puts Iwatani in a brainbuster hold. Iwatani kicks out and Natsu signals her finish and goes for the Youran. Iwatani dodges and goes for a spinning prawn hold. Natsu is out of the ring. Hazuki drops a dropkick on Iwatani. Kagetsu tries to help the downed Iwatani up. Iwatani goes for it but Kagetsu attacks with a corner thrust. Iwatani dodges and drops a dropkick. Kagetsu kicks out at one count and does a backflip. Iwatani throws a thrust kick but is countered with a thrust kick of her own. Kagetsu and Iwatani grapple around the ropes. Both fall and Iwatani and Kagetsu are disqualified. Hoshiki and Hazuki exchange elbows. Hazuki forcibly pulls Hoshiki backward and taunts her, "You can't do anything!" and delivers a series of elbows. Hazuki drives Hoshiki to the ropes and delivers a series of big boots. Hoshiki retaliates with a thrust kick. Hoshiki takes the mount position and unleashes a flurry of punches and elbows. Hoshiki lands a series of low kicks, but Hazuki slaps him. After a struggle to the corners, Hazuki climbs onto the corner and Hoshiki kicks him down onto the apron. Hoshiki attempts a high kick, but Hazuki dodges it. 20 minutes have passed. Hazuki attempts a swan dive, but Hoshiki kicks him down, and Hazuki is eliminated via OTR. Hoshiki goes for a plancha to the outside, but ends up being eliminated himself. Andras climbs onto the corner and Nakano delivers a high kick from below. Nakano hits a superplex stunner and then gets behind Andras. Andras resists and Nakano delivers a spinning kick. Andras catches Nakano's thrust and hits a hurricane driver. Nakano reverses and pins him. Nakano hits a high kick to Andras who has kicked out, and Andras stops Nakano as he tries to grab him and hits a Tombstone Piledriver. He tries for another one, but Nakano resists. Nevertheless, Andras forcefully delivered a piledriver. Nakano was unable to move, and Andras got the three count, giving Oedo Tai the victory
Kagetsu: "Hey you guys in Osaka, how are you doing!? Let me ask you again, how are you doing!? It was a crushing victory for Oedo Tai! Booing is more than welcome! I think the artists are performing in Nagoya next week? Are STARS going to be okay like this? Well, never mind that, but for the next week, at least try to act like champions. Well, never mind that. I'm sure you all know who you've all been waiting for, right? Andras-sama, or An-chan, is making his first appearance in Osaka! So An-chan, say a few words to the people of Osaka."
Andras: "...Hoo (blows)"
Kagetsu: "Oh, did you hear that, you guys? Well, well, well, that's how it is, Oedo Tai has two new members, Jamie and An-chan have joined us, so we're going to stir things up even more. Osaka people, please look forward to it. Well, lastly Jamie has one more show tonight, but today is his last, so he's going back to Japan for a while. Can you say a few words to the people of Osaka?"
Hater: "Hello Osaka! I love Japan. I love everyone in Oedo-Tai. All I can say is, Arigato gozaimasu! Arigato Oedo-Tai! Number one!"
Kagetsu: "Number one! So, now that we've talked this much, I'm sure Natsu-san wants to talk too, right? Natsu-san recently returned from Spain, please say a few words to everyone."
Summer: "Ah, hola. Hola, como estas? C, c, c, bien, ok. Ah, mejamo violet summer. Ah, don de bagno. Don de bagno? Okay, gracias."
Kagetsu: "Wow, Natsu. What did Hazuki say?"
Hazuki: "She's asking, 'Where's the toilet?'"
Kagetsu: "Really? Oh well. Anyway, with that said, Oedo Tai will wrap things up today."
Oedo Tai: "Let's believe in Oedo Tai and do our best tomorrow, even if it's just a little bit. We are Oedo Tai!"
Comment from Oedo Tai
Kagetsu: "Wow, it was a crushing victory. Wow, I didn't even break a sweat. That's because An-chan did a great job. It was easy. An-chan could have done it easily on her own."
Andras: "Nothing in particular!"
Kagetsu: "Nooooo!"
Hayter: "Yes"
