Inaba: "Good evening, Stardom fans. I'm Tomoka Inaba , representing JUST TAP OUT and the 8th Sendai Girls World Junior Champion. Congratulations on your defense, Hanan. I knew you'd defend it. You know why I'm in this ring, right? I've been waiting for this. Let's settle this and see who the true future is. I'm going to become the unprecedented double champion, the Sendai Girls Junior Champion and the Stardom Future. My one-hit kill Tomoka Kick, Ossu!"
Hanan's comment
"I successfully defended my title for the sixth time. Ryuka has always been there at every milestone in my career, and I always have so much fun fighting her. I got a lot of inspiration from her today. But I won and tied the record for most title defenses. I've never been number one before, so I want to become number one and set the record for most title defenses among Future champions. And my opponent is Inaba Tomoka. The Sendai Girls' champion? There's no way the Future champion will lose to her. I want to beat Inaba Tomoka, break the record for most title defenses, and move forward into an uncharted future."
Inaba's comment
"I've challenged Hanan for the Future title, and the reason I'm so fixated on the Future title is because the person I've been chasing has always held it. I thought that setting my sights on the Future title might be a good way to catch up to that person, so I've always been interested in it, but I never really had the chance. Today I've come here to seize that chance with my own hands, but if Hanan defends it against me next time, she'll be the most successful wrestler in history. I, Inaba Tomoka, will take the Future title and become the Sendai Girls' Junior Champion and the Stardom Future Champion, an unprecedented double champion. My one-hit kill Tomoka kick, Ossu!"

This is the first time AZM has faced a challenge from a foreigner, and it's the first time in three years that a foreigner has challenged for the High Speed Championship.

AZM: "High Speed, I've defended it! I've only fought Theklatwice, but I already hate her! (To Thekla, who is shouting as she leaves) Shut up! Get out of the way! But I'm grateful that Thekla challenged me, as it has brought a breath of fresh air to High Speed. Thank you. So, since I've defended it for the fourth time, my next goal is that record for most title defenses. Who's challenged me for this belt?!"
Kogo: "AZM, I've been looking at your high-speed belt as a new goal for me. I've always wanted to challenge for it the next time I get a three-pointer. If I were to ask for your belt, would you accept my challenge?"!?」
AZM: "Komomo, were you in the first round today ? Did you win?"
Kogo: "Yes, I made the three-pointer."
AZM: "No, so what? That's too easy, you can't take on the challenge, understand? Well, okay,onething. Your current mentor is Hazuki, right? If Komomo has practiced a lot under Hazuki's guidance, and if you can see even a bit of Hazuki's style when you fight Komomo, then it's fine, I'll do it for you."
Kogo: "Nice to meet you! (Extends hand for handshake)"
AZM: "Well, I'll keep my expectations in check, but not too high. Thanks in advance."
AZM shakes hands
AZM: "If the audience is looking forward to it, then I'll do my best. (To Mukai) Go home. Next up, Komomo, please look forward to me continuing until I break the record for most title defenses. And Great-O-Khan, see you later. Thank you."
AZM's comment
"This time in Ota Ward, I got a clean submission from Thekla, or was it a submission? Well, I hate Thekla, but I think she's now another one I want to beat. I'll let you challenge me as many times as you want, so come at me anytime. I'll break your arm again. And next up is Komomo? As I said in the ring, her current coach, her mentor is Hazuki, right? I'm very interested in Hazuki, so if I can get a feel for her in a singles match against Komomo, I'll gladly accept the challenge."

| Iwatani Mayu | It's Fukigen★ | |
* Mayu Iwatani, the 9th champion, successfully defended her title for the first time
Mayu Iwatani, who defeated Thekla to claim the SWA World Championship belt, now holds all Stardom-managed titles except for the Future of Stardom title. Her next opponent is not a foreign wrestler, but Fukigen, who claims to be an alien★. Fukigen's true strength is well known, so Iwatani should be wary. Will Iwatani be able to defend the belt she has finally won, or will it be sent to outer space?
Fukigen punches Iwatani, who is wearing a gown, in front of a sports newspaper. He tries to take off her gown and declares he's going for a brainbuster, but is instead slammed down. Fukigen dodges Iwatani's charge and tries to go for a spear attack. Each time, Iwatani kicks him, making Fukigen unhappy. Fukigen throws the referee and goes for a DDT.

Iwatani does a thrust kick, but Fukigen rolls her up. Iwatani does a tombstone piledriver followed by a moonsault press. The three count is called and Iwatani successfully defends her title
Iwatani's comment
"I successfully defended the SWA title for the first time. I'm not underestimating Fukigen, and I knew she wasn't an easy opponent, but I never expected a moonsault! I've never heard of Fukigen doing a moonsault. I've never seen one in Stardom. I think it's the first time. It's frustrating, but it's frustrating that Fukigen's moonsault captured the hearts of the audience more than Mayu's. I defended the title, but that's a bit frustrating. This belt is not supposed to be fought between two Japanese wrestlers, but it was against an alien. I thought this was okay too. I'd like to fight the alien again and again. Fukigen left a clear afterimage (of her makeup) here (on my thigh), so I'm always waiting for her to challenge me again."

KAIRI: "Shimi, today was a close call, but you couldn't protect Mitsuyoshi. But,you two. You both gave me a rose, so how about a date, or rather, a singles match?"
As Shimi was about to shake hands, KAIRI pulled her hand away
KAIRI: "Just kidding. For today, take your subordinate home. Mitsuyoshi, how was it? Did it hurt?"
Amasaki: "It hurt!"
KAIRI: "That's right, pro wrestling is painful! But it's the pain that builds up, the frustration and pain from losing repeatedly, and then winning that makes everyone so moved! That's why pro wrestling is so interesting! Let's do it again!"
Shimi and Amasaki leave the stage
Nakano: "Hey KAIRI"
KAIRI: "Yes"
Nakano: "Pro wrestling is fun!"
KAIRI: "What did you say? Sorry."
Nakano: "Pro wrestling is fun!"
KAIRI: "That's interesting!"
Nakano: "I am truly proud to have been able to team up with you like this. As the White Knights, chosen for the white belt, let's continue to fight together. (Shakes hands) But, to be honest, I would love to have a singles match with you on the biggest stage someday."
KAIRI: "Yeah. Someday, let's continue our date in a really big venue. ( They make a sign together) This is the 'W' for White Knight. "
Nakano: "It's the other way around."
KAIRI: "Ah, like this. (corrects it) Okay. That was White Knights."
Comments from Nakano & KAIRI
KAIRI: "White Knights have achieved their first tag team victory! First of all, being next to Tam-kun gives me a sense of security. We are people who respect each other, and we can switch on and off, adjust our pace, and be strict when necessary. That's why I wanted to team up with Tam-chan and even give our team a name."
Nakano: "I am truly proud from the bottom of my heart that I was able to team up with KAIRI at this time. Thank you! I want to continue to do my best by KAIRI's side as part of White Knights."
KAIRI: "At first, we weren't getting any attention, and unlike Utami and Mitsuyoshi, we kept losing after our debut, like pebbles. But we've climbed our way up to this point. I don't think that determination will be easily broken. Like I told Mitsuyoshi earlier, pro wrestling is really frustrating, it makes you hate yourself so much you want to cry, it makes you confused, and just when you think pro wrestling is fun, in the next match you realize why pro wrestling betrays you so much, it's difficult, it doesn't go the way you want it to, and I've felt that way for10years. For Tamu, it was a few years. How many years?"
Nakano: "It's been a little over seven years now."
KAIRI: "I've been a wrestler for seven years. I've carried a lot of weight on my shoulders up until now. Today, my mission was to support Utami and Mitsuyoshi. They were the focus of attention from the start, which is a good thing, but sometimes it can hold them back. Pro wrestling is more fun when you win after going through a lot of hardship, and you can share that joy with the fans. So today, I was going to be extremely critical."
Nakano: "Not Amasaki, but Karasaki Miyu." KAIRI: "That's right!"
Nakano: "But we were cutting it pretty close with time. I was in a panic."
KAIRI: "I panicked. But Shimi defended me more than I expected."
Nakano: "But I felt the love."
KAIRI: "I felt it. Right now, the unit is led by a leader. Tamu is also a leader, right?"
Nakano: "I'm the leader."
KAIRI: "I think every leader works in a different way, and I don't think there's such a thing as a 100% perfect leader. I myself am not perfect either. But by clashing like this, and clashing ideologies, we can improve ourselves and become even better. I'm sure it's tough for Kozuen too, with all its unique members."
Nakano: "It's tough, but I think he's doing a pretty good job and is working hard (wry smile)."
KAIRI: "There's more to come. There might be a continuation to the story of White Knights."
Nakano: "KAIRI, you really do talk a lot, don't you?"
KAIRI: "I talked a little too much (laughs). Thank you very much."
Comments from Shimi and Amasaki
Amasaki: "It hurt a lot, but just as KAIRI said, it made me realize once again that professional wrestling is interesting and fun."
Utami: "I couldn't protect Mitsuyoshi today, but I learned a lot from the superstar KAIRI. I'm not joking about the singles match I mentioned at the end. Let's do it. Queen's Quest leader Utami Hayashishita and superstar KAIRI. I'm looking forward to it."

*The 24th champion team, Hazuki & Koguma, successfully defended their title for the first time
On May 5th, the FWC team of Hazuki and Koguma successfully reclaimed the Goddesses of Stardom Championship in their hometown of Fukuoka. However, in a tag team match in Osaka on May 7th, Koguma was pinned by Mai Sakurai. After the match, Sakurai declared her intention to challenge for the Goddesses Championship, teaming with Giulia. The champions accepted, and this title match was decided. For Giulia, who has welcomed Sakurai into Donna del Mondo, this is a chance to reclaim the Goddesses Championship. Although her partnership with Syuri in Arikaba has disbanded, winning the belts with Sakurai would undoubtedly be a major achievement for DDM.

Julia & Sakurai's comments
Julia: "I'm sorry."
Sakurai: "I'm sorry."
Julia: "No, no, it's my fault. I got so engrossed in (Hazuki) that I didn't realize it was over until it was over. I'm sorry. But this is just the beginning."
Sakurai: "Today was the biggest opportunity I've had since joining DDM. That's why I really wanted to wear the belt with Giulia. But I won't give up, so I'll definitely try again and let's wear it together!"
Julia: "Yeah, I think it was a good experience, and we can use this to our advantage next time. But I think it was worthwhile because I found an interesting opponent to fight against. We will definitely wear the Goddess belts. We won't give up."

MIRAI: (Still down) "I wanted to hear thisthree-beat rhythm after winning. I'm incredibly frustrated that I lost, but I think I still have a lot of room to grow. Because, because, I'm Cinderella. (Clapping) I will definitely seize the next opportunity, make the most of it, and next time I will put my heart and soul into taking the belt!"
Starlight Kid makes an appearance
Kamiya: "Oh, uh, what..."
Kid: "Kamitani"
Kamiya: "Yes, yes?"
Kid: "Today,seventhattempt, I finally got the Artist belt!eight. But I have no intention of trying for the white belt that many times. In fact, I have no intention of letting myself become food for your Phoenix! Hahahahahaha. Hahahaha.thirdattempt at the white belt, this black tiger will devour Phoenix!"
Kamiya: "Starlight Kid, you're a bundle of greed, so I knew you'd show up! Well, as you can see, the value of this white belt keeps going up and up. I'm watching from high up, so you'd better try to catch up."
Kid's comment
"SLK finally won this Artist belt on my seventh attempt today. After Artist and Goddess, I thought I'd grab the white belt before the 5★STAR GP starts. The belt I'm going all out for? Ever since the STARS days, I've always given it my all, all my all, all my all! But even then, I couldn't get close to the belt. Giving it my all isn't everything. Kamiya, I owe you a debt for defeating me in the 5★STAR and Cinderella titles. I'm going to keep this momentum going, defend this belt, and... take the singles belt too!"
Comment from Kamitani
"I have successfully defended the Wonder of Stardom title for the sixth time. MIRAI, you did great. At first, I didn't have any desire for this belt at all, and I thought I could somehow manage it, but it looks like you'll be a good rival. But I overpowered you with all my strength and soul, so I will continue to defend this belt. And Starlight Kid. The Black Tiger, a bundle of desire. I had heard about your passionate feelings for the white belt, so I knew you would come. But the value of this white belt is only increasing, and I don't think anyone can beat me now, right? I'm really, really looking forward to it."
MIRAI's comment
"It's frustrating... Last time in Ota Ward, I saw the ceiling for the first time, and it was so wonderful. And then, two months later, today I saw a ceiling that was so frustrating (tears). I thought, 'Not again,' and it's so, so frustrating, but I'm grateful to Saya Kamitani for fighting against me like this. Thank you so much. Saya Kamitani was so strong and cool, so I'll definitely surpass her. Don't ever let go of that wonderful white belt you're holding. Today I gave God's Eye my first defeat, and I lost like this today, and I keep saying I'll surpass my limits, but I still haven't surpassed my own limits, but no matter how much I'm reduced to ashes, I'll get back up. I want to show everyone this story of not giving up on my dreams... this story of not giving up on a dream that has just begun. Because I'm Cinderella. I got to taste the red belt and the white belt in less than six months. Maybe they're still not quite the right size for this MIRAI, but I won't give up. Next time... I'll put my heart and soul into it, and it's a summer I absolutely cannot lose."

* Shuri, the 14th champion, successfully defended her title for the fifth time
The main event is the World of Stardom Championship match, where Risa Sera of Prominence will challenge Shuri for the red belt. In January of this year, the deathmatch and hardcore unit Prominence made a surprise attack on Stardom. This title match was decided when Shuri nominated their leader, Sera. In this match, a no-holds-barred rule was adopted at Shuri's suggestion. Normally, ita 30-minute, one-fall match, but this time it will be contested with no time limit, and the winner will be decided by submission or knockout, with no pinfalls. Also, the count outside the ring will not be counted.

Both are down and exchange elbows. When Sera goes down, Shuri stomps on her repeatedly. Shuri catches Sera's bamboo sword. Shuri puts down the bamboo sword and dodges Sera. Sera picks up the bamboo sword and hits the referee as well. Prominence interferes and Kurumi Hiiragi delivers a lariat. Sera performs a cliffhanger on the apron, and then continues to hit with the bamboo sword outside the ring. Sorei is Sera. She delivers a series of shoulder tackles to Prominence. As Kurumi grappled with Sera, Sera struck her from behind with a bamboo sword. Sera then struck Kurumi in the face with the bamboo sword, put her on the corner, and delivered a superplex. She followed up with a diving double knee drop. Sera asked the referee to count down. At the nine count, Shuri got up, snatched the bamboo sword, broke it in half, and threw it away. She hoisted her up and threw her on the corner, delivering a running knee attack. Shuri dodged Sera's elbow and landed a series of middle kicks. When Sera went down, Shuri applied a sleeper hold. Shuri lifted Sera up, but Sera countered, only for Shuri to deliver a high kick followed by a kick to the face. Shuri applied a sleeper hold, then transitioned into a body lock and tightened the hold. The towel was thrown in to end the match
Shuri: "Sera Risa, this is the World of Stardom Champion! No matter the rules, I will continue to defend this red belt. Sera, it's been a while since we've had a singles match, hasn't it? You're strong even without using a bamboo sword or anything like that. You can do amazing things. So, the next time we have a match, I want to face you without any of that,one-on-one, and have a match with our hearts. Come at me anytime, I'll be waiting."
Sera left the ring without a word and was supported out by Prominence. Next, Watanabe Momo appeared
Peach “Akari~”
Akari: "Oh..."
Momo: "Don't tell me you've forgotten. It's been a long time since I lost to you in the 5★STAR finals last year, and now the time has finally come. I'm the next challenger for the red belt!"
Shuri: "Watanabe Momo, I understand, but please put away that dangerous thing. (Momo puts down the weapon she was holding) Well, Oedo Tai, Watanabe Momo who has become Black Peach, I also wanted to have a match with you for this red belt. But, you know, with things like this (weapons) and all sorts of people interfering in Oedo Tai, right? But, Ione-ononematch with Watanabe Momo for this red belt, so keep that in mind."
Momo: "You said earlier that the red belt champion will win no matter what the rules are, right?"
Akari: "Yeah, that kind of thing happened!"
Momo: "Ah, that's right, that's right. It's embarrassing, embarrassing, embarrassing. Mmhmm. Well, I'll go head - to -head with you and have a fair fight."
Momo leaves the stage
Shuri: " I have successfully defended the red belt for the fifth time! Today, Stardom had seven major title matches. Stardom's momentum is unstoppable. I would be happy if you all continue to support us and make it even more exciting! As the champion of Stardom's top red belt, I will continue to defend this belt! Don't give up on yourself, go beyond your limits, salama po everyone! Thank you!"
Sera's comment
"My bamboo sword was taken away. Sigh... Well, I'm fully aware that I used underhanded tactics, but I wanted to beat Shuri and get that belt so badly that I don't regret it. However, if my bamboo sword was taken away, I think I might as well fight fair and square next time. Shuri, let's do it again. Don't break your bamboo sword next time."
Comment from Juri
"I successfully defended the World of Stardom title for the fifth time. Risa Sera, we played under these rules today, but I know that Risa Sera is strong even without using weapons like that, so next time we have a match, I want to face her one-on-one. That's what I thought. And then, when Momo Watanabe stepped into the ring to challenge me, I was happy.5★STAR and went to Oedo Tai, and I thought she was really on fire, or rather, that she had broken out of her shell, so I want to have a one-on-one match with Momo Watanabe for this red belt. That's what I think. I won't let anyone take this red belt. I will continue to defend it. And I will continue to show the world of red that will remain in the hearts of each and every fan."
