It's Fukigen★ |
Originally, a three-way match was scheduled between Momo Watanabe, Lady C, and Fukigen Desu★, but Lady C withdrew due to an eye injury, and the match was changed to a singles match between Momo and Fukigen Desu ★ . The two had faced each other in an official match at the 5★STAR GP. Momo won that match at Korakuen Hall on September 6th, but...
Introduced as "a bizarre wrestler with a Tokyo Sports newspaper in his hand," Fukigen throws a sports newspaper at ring announcer Ando. First, Momo extends her hand to invite him in. When Fukigen tries to accept, Momo kicks him. When Momo goes for a headlock, Fukigen leads her to rope work. After an exchange of pins, Fukigen throws Momo into the corner and charges.

When Momo tries for a middle kick, Fukigen pokes her in the eye. Fukigen tries for a brainbuster but is slammed down instead. Momo delivers a series of corner dropkicks. When Fukigen counters, Momo announces, "Here comes the brainbuster!" and executes it. She then goes for a Soumatou (a type of pin), but Fukigen dodges it and rolls her up. After dodging a middle kick, Fukigen takes Momo's back. Fukigen counters and rolls up Momo, who was going for a tequila. Fukigen charges and rolls her up, but Momo counters and holds her down.

Will Unagi accept Sakurai's entry into COSMIC ANGELS, or will Oedo Tai seize this opportunity for a decisive victory? Additionally, this match is a preview of the Future of Stardom Championship between Unagi and Ryukana.

Harden your heart and come and grab it!"

Koguma: "I lost..."
Iwatani: "It's frustrating. From now on it's a battle between each of us, but right now, Koguma is a really important tag team partner to me, and I thought that when our strengths were combined we would be unstoppable, but today, even with the strength of both of us , we couldn't win. But in 2021 , I, Mayu Iwatani, will be the one to wrap up our 10th anniversary year, wearing the white belt, and we'll welcome 2022. Right now , STARS has three members, but we can do it even with just three people, and I want to prove that. To that end, I will definitely take the white belt at Osaka-jo Hall."
