Nakano: "Julia, hey, you've brought some more troublesome guys with you. But I want to fight you. When I'm punching you, it feels like the blood in my whole body is boiling. Hey Julia, let's have another singles match."
Giulia: "Okay, but wouldn't a simple singles match be boring? What should we be fighting for?"
Nakano: "What should I bet on? That's obvious, isn't it? My hair..."
Julia: "Let's not do my hair! It's grown so long. Besides my hair, there's a belt I'd like to try for."
Nakano: "In that case, I have one too."
Julia: "Huh? What?"
Nakano: "You should have said so earlier."
Julia: "You go first. ...Shall we say it together?"
Nakano & Julia: "Red!"
Iwatani comes in
Iwatani: "Wait a minute. Did you just say red? Good evening everyone at KFC, not at Ryogoku Kokugikan! 2022, Iwatani Mayu has vowed to definitely wear a singles belt. Two people are wearing red, and I'll join them for a three-way match, with the first ones to win (?) taking turns challenging."
Julia: "? So, it's a 3-way match, and the first person to win gets to leave,right?"
Iwatani: "We'll go into the detailed rules later, but I don't know what will happen to the red belt in this 3-WAY match, but how about one of these three challenging for it?"
Giulia: "That's great! A three-way match to determine the next challenger for the red belt sounds interesting, doesn't it? What do you think?"
Nakano: "Okay."
Julia: "Okay, then it's decided. Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Tekla: "It's Tekla. Sorry. I'm in a weird mood. Excuse me. Can I talk for a bit? I want the SWA belt that Shuri-san had. You knew that, didn't you? And is there anyone who wants to do it with me? Is there? Is there?"
Shirakawa: "Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes. (I want that belt too. I don't think the SWA belt belongs to you.)"
Tekla: "Why, why? Tell me. What? Who are you?"
Shirakawa: "Me? I'm Sexy Spider."
Tekla: "That's fine. Okay, then let's do it. We are SWA."
Shirakawa: "(There's a reason why I want to win it. Because I want to take that belt on an overseas tour. I want to fight against various wrestlers overseas.)"
Tekla: "I'm a foreign wrestler too. That's fine. I'll do it, I'll do it."
Shirakawa: "Let's do it here. Sounds good, right? OK."
Tekla: "Okay, let's do it here. Sounds good. Thanks."
Shirakawa: "Please."
Giulia: "Okay, so, sorry (to Nakano) that it's not a singles match. Maybe next time. Please step aside. First of all, I'd like to challenge either MIRAI or Shuri for the Red Belt title match at Ryogoku Kokugikan. So, I'd like to wrap things up. Natsupoi, Himeka, Maika, Shuri, MIRAI, Thekla, and Giulia. The women who are bursting with energy on the world stage, Donna del Mondo, Arrivederci, see you next time."
Comments from Julia's group
Thekla: "Good job everyone. We won. Thank you very much. It was fun, today was fun too. It's been a very fulfilling week since I came to this ring. On the 3rd in Shinjuku, we won. Yesterday I won, and the day before that I won too. And today I said I wanted to challenge for the SWA belt. Now is the time. I'm going to bring the belt to Donna del Mondo. Come on, let's fight, I can't wait. Thank you, that was great."
Julia: "It was really fun."
MIRAI: "The third day of the three-game series, and we were able to finish it off happily again today. And finally, a 3WAY?"
Giulia: "That's how it's going to be. Mayu Iwatani, Tam Nakano, and I have proposed a three-way challenge for the red belt. I don't know what the format will be, but two of the three of us will get the right to challenge for the red belt at Ryogoku Kokugikan on March26thand27th, so I don't know whether it will be Shuri or MIRAI who will be standing in Ryogoku."
MIRAI: "Of course, I'll take the red belt from Shuri in one go, and I don't know which of the three will come next, but I'll proudly wear the belt and face them head-on."
Julia: "I'm looking forward to it. Anyway, since I took down Goddess yesterday, I'm thinking about what to do next. I'll tell you more about it later. So, Arrivederci, see you later."
Comments from Nakano Group
Nakano: "Donna del Mondo, Giulia, really ignites my fighting spirit. I feel like this is what it means to have my blood boiling. We've been scheduled for a 3-way match for the right to challenge for the red belt, but Iwatani Mayu, Nakano Tam, and Giulia were all thinking of losing the white belt and going for their next dream, so I never imagined Giulia was thinking the same thing. I'm going to knock out both Iwatani Mayu and Giulia, and then I'll seize the right to challenge for the red belt. What, you're going overseas?"
Shirakawa: "Well, you see,2022was to forge my own path. I wanted to do something nobody else was doing, and I'd always wanted to fight against overseas wrestlers. If I won the SWA belt, people and wrestlers from overseas would flock to me whether I liked it or not. So, I thought I could meet a lot more wrestlers if I went overseas than if I stayed in Japan, and that's why I wanted to win the SWA title and go on a training trip abroad."
Nakano: "Huh? So if I get it, I'll leave Kozuen behind and go overseas..."
Shirakawa: "Well, I won the SWA belt, the SWA belt, which is also the Stardom belt. So I've been saying I want to compete in overseas matches, and to lay the foundation for that, I'm going on an overseas tour to expand Stardom. COSMIC ANGELS will also be going to establish an overseas branch. Leave it to us."
Nakano: "COSMIC ANGELS expansion"
Shirakawa: "That's right. All Over the World, Cosmic Angels, I'll do my best."
Tsukiyama: "I'll do my best... I lost today, but I won't lose next time."
Nakano: "It's not about not losing, it's about winning, right?"
Tsukiyama: "Yes, we will win."
Shirakawa: "Okay, then let's do 100 defensive maneuvers today ."
Tsukiyama: "Yes"
Nakano: "200times!"
Tsukiyama: "Yes"
