Nakano Tam |
5 minutes 10 seconds, |
It's Fukigen★ |
Tam Nakano and Fukigen Desu★ will clash in a one-on-one match. Nakano has no particular grudge against Fukigen personally, but if the Oedo Tai interfere, the match will become complicated. The white belt champion has a title defense against Saya Kamitani, and also a title defense against the Oedo Tai for the Artist of Stardom Championship, so she cannot stop here
Fukigenring alone. Konami, who has finished her match, takes her place at ringside after being called out. Nakano offers a handshake, but Fukigen refuses, saying "No." When the bell rings, Nakano tries to shake hands again, but Fukigen kicks him in the leg.

Fukigen replies "Delicious," but throws the candy away and makes Nakano accompany him on a rope walk. Fukigen walks along the top rope with his hands in his pockets. He throws Nakano with an arm whip and then applies a camel clutch, asking "Are you giving up?" Nakano escapes to the ropes, but Fukigen holds on tight. Fukigen drives Nakano into the corner and charges at him. However, each time Nakano sticks out his leg and kicks him in the face. Displeased, Fukigen kicks the corner. However, Fukigen anticipated Nakano's charge and slammed him to the mat. Fukigen countered and threatened a brainbuster, but was slammed back down. Nakano landed a knee attack and took Fukigen's back. Fukigen dodged, and Nakano dodged Fukigen's charge with a bridge. When Nakano took Fukigen's back, they exchanged roll-up attempts. Fukigen went for a rolling prawn hold. Fukigen cornered Nakano with a series of roll-up attempts. Fukigen dodged a spin kick and rolled him up. Nakano was on top and bridged, and Fukigen couldn't kick out, so the three count was made. After the match, Fukigen retaliated with an attack and left the ring.

Natsuko: "Kid, I've changed my opinion of you a little since yesterday. If Julia were here, we might have seen an even more changed version of you. Unfortunately, DDM has a lot of players out right now. Are you sure it's okay? Yeah, they have a lot of players out, so maybe DDM is a good target right now. Right, Maika?"
Akari: "Don't you dare set your sights on our Maika. You're trying to acquire all sorts of players like that, but do you have a specific goal in mind? What's the deal?"
Natsuko: "I'd love to tell you! But unfortunately, I'm not that stupid. I'm not going to tell you my plan. Well, you'll figure it out eventually, right, Maika?"
Akari: "Don't you dare talk to my Maika!"
Natsuko: "Okay, okay. Well, look forward to it. Right now, you've already had the red belt, and next I'll be challenging for it, so until then, let's put DDM aside, okay, Maika?"
Akari: "Listen, don't underestimate me. And don't think you're going to take that red belt."
Akari approaches Natsuko
Natsuko: "Wait a minute, don't kiss me. Don't kiss me! That's enough."
Akari: "Come on, come on."
Natsuko: "Kid, is there something wrong? I get scared when you kiss me."
Akari: "Kid, stop going on and on about Julia, Julia, Julia. I'll keep you company here too, and I'll make things exciting for you."
Kid: "I'm looking forward to it."
DDM leaves the ring
Natsuko: "I wonder if he's on edge because there are so many players absent? I wish he'd go easy on himself, Kid."
Kid: "..."
Natsuko: "Well, whatever, DDM, STARS, and Hayashishita Utami, you all, tremble and sleep."
Natsuko left the ring first. Kid bowed before leaving the ring
Comment from Oedo Tai
Natsuko: "Well, like I said in the ring earlier, Kid was just a little bit better than yesterday. I'm sure he has a lot of feelings, but since he's a professional when he's in the ring, he has to completely forget the past, break away from it, and move on to a new path, otherwise he'll always be second best, or maybe even sixth best?"
Natsuko leaves the stage
Kid: "I've won both of my matches since joining Oedo Tai, but hey, what happened to Julia? I'm in this situation right now, but I think Julia is someone I can have such a heated battle with that I'll forget all about that. I want to defeat Julia with my own hands as soon as possible. I'm looking forward to having another heated battle with her, but today Shuri brought out some deep feelings in me, or something like that. I haven't shown much interest in her until now, but I think Shuri is an interesting opponent. I'm looking forward to having a fierce and heated battle with Shuri someday."
