Shuri: "How is everyone doing? I hope you all had a great time. Stardom will be in Kanazawa tomorrow for two consecutive shows in the Hokuriku region. Stardom is planning to tour all 47 prefectures across Japan. And on June 12th , I will be challenging for the red belt. I want to return to this place with that belt around my waist as a triple crown champion, so please cheer me on. There are five members in Donna del Mondo, but Himeka is currently out of commission and I think she will be back after building up her power. Himeka, Maika, Natsupoi, Giulia, and Shuri. Donna del Mondo, the women who will explode onto the world stage. Salama po, everyone. Thank you."
Post-match comments
Shuri: "Today, my match for the red belt is coming up soon on June 12th , so I need to keep building up my strength. I won with a buzzsaw kick , so I want to ride this momentum all the way to the red belt and start a new era for Shuri as a triple crown champion."
Giulia: "Recently, I've been spending a lot of time with Shuri because of the upcoming red belt title match, and I can really feel that the usually gentle Shuri is on edge. I can sense that she's different this time because I'm close to her. I believe she will definitely win the red belt in Ota Ward. I'm also feeling motivated and fired up because of everyone's enthusiasm, so I'm thinking that while we'll continue as a tag team, I'd like to start thinking about singles matches soon."
Natsupoi: "Fukigen wasn't here today, but I'm determined to defend this belt against Fukigen and hold onto it until the very end."
