After the main event in Toyama on May 21st , a generational battle began following a call from Suzu Suzuki. At this time, newcomers HANAKO and Sakura Aya also stepped forward, and a battle among the younger generation erupted. In Toyama, the match was set up as HANAKO & Sakura vs. Tsukiyama Waka, Sakurai Mai & Lady C, but with the return of Amasaki Mitsuyoshi, who had been absent due to illness, the match became a six-person tag team match between Tsukiyama Waka, Sakurai Mai & Lady C vs. Amasaki Mitsuyoshi, HANAKO & Sakura Aya. The actions of Tsukiyama, who was inexplicably addressed without honorifics by her juniors HANAKO and Sakura, are also something to watch in this match.

A long tour will begin again next week, but I will be getting some maintenance done at the Spa LaQua spa today, but you common people should definitely go and eat the curry bread rice bowl when Fuji Soba releases it! Well then, excuse me."
Comments from the Ladies
Lady: "It was a generational match, but Tsukki came out on top. What do you think?"
Tsukiyama: "I'm glad we were able to achieve victory, victory, passion, but you better educate Hanako properly, you know."
Lady: "She's a little too cocky, so maybe I should educate her a bit more. And it's been a while since I've seen Mitsuyoshi's moves, but they've gotten so much more powerful, it really taught me that there are some things you can only learn through sparring. I want to beat her up even more and teach her a lesson. What do you think, Sakura?"
Tsukiyama: "Sakura has incredible guts, so I personally like her, but there's one thing I just can't forgive. That is, the idea of taking her lunch home is just..."
Lady: "That's stingy."
Tsukiyama: "She's like that girl, Sakurai Mai."
Sakurai comes in
Sakurai: "What, what? What is this chair? This won't do, you need to replace this chair."
Lady: "Let's go eat curry bread rice bowls. Treat me and take me."
Comments from Sakura Group
Sakura: "I'm so frustrated. My kicks today were definitely better than the last time we had a singles match. Please let me have another singles match. I'm so frustrated. Also, if you take your lunch home after this, I won't forgive you."
Mount Gassan enters
Tsukiyama: "There's lunch! There's lunch. There's lunch."
Lady: "You're so greedy."

Magnificent: "Okay, okay. I'll accept your challenge. You won't break, you won't die, you won't be crushed? Shirakawa Mina. I admit I lost today, but next time I'll definitely send you to the depths of hell and make you cry your eyes out again."
Shirakawa: "Don't underestimate Shirakawa Mina's tenacity."
Mariah: "Don't underestimate me!"
Comments from Shirakawa Group
Shirakawa: "Club Venus has won! Club Venus is here. For me, losing the white belt, and losing the two-title match after I had declared my intention to do so, was the lowest point I've ever felt. But at that time, Mariah said that she wanted to win the belts with Mina. Today, having the Goddess Champion in front of me was a huge opportunity, so I seized that first opportunity."
Mariah: "I knew Mina was heartbroken when the white belt was gone. I felt the same way.sixmonths, but I didn't challenge for any championship. I want my first challenge to be with Mina."
Shirakawa: "Shirakawa also said she wanted the future, so I told her to bite back and make an appeal, and we also got the Goddess belt. I'm sure Gina will definitely find what she wants, what she wants to find. Chanmina isn't just crying! Let's go up! Up! Up! Up! Let's go Zundoko! Isn't Zundoko good?!?」
—Rather than making a comeback as an individual, will this time the comeback be as Club Venus, and will it be like the White Belt again?
Shirakawa: "That's right. First of all, team strength isn't measured solely by belts, but it's easy to understand. We'll definitely win the belts here as a team, and I haven't given up on reaching the top of Stardom, and I'm going to defeat Tam Nakano, so first we'll raise the team's strength here, and then we'll aim for the singles belts as well."
Comments from MIRAI Group
MIRAI: "The fact that Shirakawa Mina defeated Ami, and the reality that the current Goddesses of Stardom champions lost to Shirakawa & Mariah, I think we have to accept that. But I absolutely cannot let it end with me just getting beaten, so if I get beaten, I will fight back. I never thought I'd be fighting Shirakawa Mina for this belt, but Shirakawa Mina, did you say June 25th? I can't lose to Shirakawa Mina there, and then on July 2nd I plan to defeat the opponent that Shirakawa Mina wanted to defeat, so I think I ca n't lose here . I 'll put my heart and soul into it and show everyone what a pro wrestler is like."
Sorei: "Today I lost to Shirakawa Mina by figure- four leglock, but last year at the 5★STAR GP, when we had a singles match, she also made me tap out by figure -four leglock. It's very frustrating. This time, we're putting the Goddess belt on the line, so even if my left leg gets injured, I'll do everything I can to counter her figure- four leglock, defeat Shirakawa and Mariah, and successfully defend my title."

Nanae: "First of all, thank you everyone for coming to today's Passion Injection Match! Passion, passion, passion, passion. It seems like everyone's hearts are filled with passion. And Mizumori, do you really have this much passion?"
Mizumori: "I have passion in my heart. Passion is in my heart! Once you feel passion, it's hard to get rid of it. But with that passion, I believe Mizumori Yuna is a wrestler who can carry on Takahashi Nanae's legacy! But instead of going side-by-side, Mizumori Yuna will choose Cosmic Angels."
Nanae: "Hey, let me ask you something. Kozuen, is there any passion there?"
Mizumori: "I'll return the favor exactly as she did. Just as Nanae-san instilled passion in everyone here who lacked it, I will fight to instill passion in the Cosmic Angels."
Nanae: "I think we're all living our lives to the fullest in this moment. So let's all live in the present! I believe I'm here now because I've continued to live in the present. So, Starlight Kid, come out!"
Kid appears
Nanae: "Don't dawdle out here, hurry up! There's no passion in your walk! Hey, there's something I want to say to you. Yesterday on Twitter you called me a wrestler of the past."
Kid: "I told you."
Nanae: "I'm shocked. That's right, I'm still active, I'm living in the present so much, injecting passion into everyone, and making Stardom so exciting. I always thought you were always looking at things calmly. Is that what you say? It seems you're lacking passion. I'll give you a passion injection match!"
Kid: "So, Nanae Takahashi specifically requested me. Our first encounter, it's finally happening. To be honest, right now I want to fight someone much stronger, someone of a higher rank. But, a Passion Injection Match? I'll have to decline that title (laughs). I'm no match for the people Nanae has faced in Passion Injection Matches so far. This year marks my eighth year in the industry. It may only be eight years to Nanae, but I 'll prove that my wrestling, which is rooted in the spirit of All Japan Women's Pro Wrestling that I grew up watching, can absorb the wrestling of Nanae, who has been in the industry for 27 years. Hehehe. So, Nanae Takahashi vs. Starlight Kid, it's decided! Now it's up to the company to put it in a big venue. Thanks, goodbye."
Nanae: "Goodbye. Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, passion, passion, passion!"
Nanae's comment
"I injected some passion into her, but Mizumori chose Kozuen. I wonder what will happen. 7Upporiginally started out as a duo with Yuu, challenging Stardom and making a name for themselves in the tag league, showing incredible progress. That was only possible because Yuu was there, but now she's not by my side. Why? Because she's eating lots of rice balls to build up her power! Don't eat too much, Yuu. I'll be waiting. It's the two of us now, 7Upp. And as long as I'm here, Nanae will go upside down. Nanae will be here. So Mizumori said something about injecting passion into Kozuen, so I guess that's good for the branches of my passion to spread, right? It's like a pyramid scheme. But she turned her back on me, so I think she'll understand what that means when we face each other again. And Kid. To me, she's still just an8-year-old kid?" She's still a little kid, but she acts all high and mighty in Stardom. But lately I think she's lacking passion, seriously. So I'm going to inject some passion into Kid. It's a passion injection match. She might not acknowledge it, but I'll prove through this match that it's a big deal! So, goodbye passion!
Kid's comment
"I'm SLK, Starlight Kid, and I was nominated by Nanae Takahashi. I'm currently the New Blood Tag Team Champion, and it might be my eighth year in the industry, but right now I really want to fight someone even more exciting. But Nanae Takahashi, we were trainees at the same time for a little while, and she's left the Stardom ring, and I was looking forward to fighting her, but she's gone. It's a bit of a shame. I grew up watching women's pro wrestling. I watched All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling too. I watched Nanae Takahashi all the time when she was Passion Red and doing crazy things. So now that she's back on the Stardom ring, I'm finally able to have my first encounter with her." It's very kind of them to do that. But I absolutely refuse to accept the title "Passion Injection Match." I'm no match for the guys who've done Passion Injection Matches before me. I wonder how far Nanae can go in the world of women's pro wrestling with just that passion, passion, passion, passion, passion and momentum. Why did she come back to the Stardom mat? Did she come back just to inject passion? I want to do the opposite and8thyear27years of experience, onto this Stardom mat. I'll prove in this match that my pro wrestling can swallow up Nanae's27years of experience. Don't underestimate me, I've watched women's pro wrestling for a long time."
Mizumori's comment
"Today's singles match was my third singles match against Nanae since I became a professional wrestler. Even after coming to Stardom, I didn't just want to team up with her, but I really wanted to fight Nanae Takahashi more and more to improve myself. So I was really happy that we were able to have a singles match. But at the same time, I was also disappointed that I lost. Now that I have firmly chosen this path, as I said, I want to continue to express the strong passion that Nanae-san has given me as Yuna Mizumori on the path I believe in. Please keep an eye on Yuna Mizumori from now on."

I'm Cosmic Angel, so it was a bit complicated, but I was also a little happy. To be able to fight. But still, I want to fight Natsumi one-on-one."
Natsupoi: "...Yeah, that's right."
Anno: "I have so many things I want to say to Natsumi."
Natsupoi: "I have a lot I want to say too... Bye-bye."

Suzuki: "There's not nearly enough time! I'm not happy about this. I'm sure you (the opposing team) feel the same way."
Maika: "Let's do it again. A long time ago, New Japan Pro-Wrestling had an elimination match as part of a generational struggle, but let's settle this once and for all with a new Reiwa-era generational elimination match. The location is set for the next Korakuen Hall!"
Suzuki: "Okay, but can I say one thing? Kamiya, Shimi, are you two still fighting? Look, if you're going to fight, can't you do it somewhere else? You two are thinking about yourselves way too much."
MIRAI makes its appearance
MIRAI: "I don't want people to forget about me. Next time, I'd like to be able to fight alongside them."
Suzuki: "Hold on a second. It's great that you came out with such energy, but you've won the Cinderella Championship twice, right? You've won it twice, and MIRAI is buried in Stardom, are you serious about surpassing these guys?"
MIRAI: "Yes. Well, let me say this too, Suzu, weren't you more energetic and venomous when you were in Prominence? You didn't even win today, and you were the one who started it all. You came to Stardom, got tainted by Stardom, and are you the one who's been buried? I have no intention of being buried. And Shuri."
Akari: "Yes"
MIRAI: "I'm always grateful to Akari."
Akari: "Thank you."
MIRAI: "But I can't stay below Shuri forever, second or third in rank, second or third in God's Eye. So next time, I want to fight on the opposite side of Shuri and give it my all."
Shuri: "That's great, I've been waiting for you to say that, MIRAI-chan. What do you all think? MIRAI, so, when is the next Korakuen Hall event? July 9th, Shuri, Iwatani Mayu, Nakano Tam, Giulia, Suzuki Suzu, Maika, MIRAI, and one more spot. One more spot."
Kamiya: "I'll take the lead here. Because I don't know what (Shimi) is thinking."
Shimi: "I never know what you're thinking. Don't drag me into this generational conflict, do whatever you want."
Shimi left the ring and exited
Akari: "Sorry, sorry, excuse me for a moment. It looks like we're running out of time, so let's wrap it up. Quickly. Let's wrap it up."
Suzuki: "I came here to change the usual scenery that you guys always see. I came here to conquer the world. So you guys are incredibly interesting too. Look forward to the next show at Korakuen!"
Comments from Nakano Group
Shuri: "I'm really happy that I was able to team up with these four people, who don't often get to team up. It's really stimulating to team up with someone I don't usually team up with, so I was really happy. After the match, MIRAI came over, and I thought that was really exciting."
Giulia: "First of all, I'm feeling very restless because my all-nighter is about to end. Listen, you self-proclaimed golden generation guys, you should pay attention to that kind of time. Otherwise, you'll never get out of that pathetic golden generation mold. There are generations in pro wrestling, but frankly speaking, those kinds of careers aren't any different from yours, you idiots. I think pro wrestling is ultimately about individual struggles, so unless you realize that, there's nothing more to it. Or rather, you (Nakano) hit me during the match, didn't you?"
Nakano: "I didn't hit him, I didn't hit him. I didn't hit him. I didn't hit him. You too."
Julia: "Huh? I don't know anything about that."
Shuri: "Now, now, now."
Iwatani: "These two were hitting each other during the match, but the fact that they couldn't finish the match with so many champions present shows that they still have a long way to go, even considering the older generation. I'm grateful that they suggested a next time. I wonder if the next time we'll definitely be called the Stardom Four Heavenly Kings? I don't know, but the Stardom Four Heavenly Kings will be a solid wall, and someone might drop out and a different member of the Four Heavenly Kings might come along, so we'll not let our guard down and will do our best to be the top of Stardom. Iwatani Mayu is the icon of Stardom among these Four Heavenly Kings, so please support her."
Iwatani was ejected
Julia: "I'm watching you (Nakano). I'm watching you win those two titles."
Nakano: "Just watch with your finger in your mouth and your mouth watering!"
Julia: "What's the matter? I'll drool all over you."
Nakano and Julia leave, leaving Shuri alone
Akari: "She's a woman of a different caliber."
Comment from Kamiya Group
Kamiya: "Now that the next match has been decided, today I was able to compete alongside all the former Red Belt Champions, as well as the current IWGP Women's Champion and the Red and White Champions, which was incredibly exciting for me and I think I've found my next dream. So I want to make a fresh start again."
Maika: "Honestly, I was planning to leave DDM today. But after fighting Giulia, and considering Shuri, MIRAI, Natsupoi, and the retired Himeka, I've decided to stand beside Giulia and surpass her. And I'm going to take over Stardom!"
Suzuki: "It's me."
Maika: "It's me."
Suzuki: "Well, pro wrestling is all about individual battles and all that, but I think that after fighting here today, each and every one of us on this team has found a new goal. And as I said at the beginning, my goal when I came to Stardom was to conquer Stardom and become the face of the pro wrestling world. I think the day when I can achieve that goal is getting closer. Look forward to the next show at Korakuen Hall."
