Amasaki Mitsuyoshi |
| Tecra | MIRAI | |
Originally, a tag team match was scheduled between Mai Sakurai & Thekla and AZM & Mitsuyoshi Amasaki, but AZM was absent from the Saitama event the day before and this event. Therefore, MIRAI took AZM's place. The match is now Mai Sakurai & Thekla vs. MIRAI & Mitsuyoshi Amasaki. What will happen with this crossover tag team between God's Eye and Queen's Quest? Also, Sakurai and MIRAI, who will be competing in the tag league as a crossover duo, will face each other on this day. This is a normal matchup, but what will their mindset be going into this official match?
"I'll go!" Sakurai declared, and MIRAI also volunteered to be the first to start the match, saying, "I'll go!"

MICHIKO |
101. MICHIKO of GLEAT, who had stormed into Korakuen Hall and attacked Giulia, appeared, and a match against Giulia was made as she had wished. MICHIKO had fought in Oedo Tai during the Andras Miyagi era, but was expelled after losing the Artist of the Year title. When she was alone, she teamed up with Giulia, who had just joined Stardom. Giulia and Andras teamed up several times, but the partnership fell apart after a few matches, and Andras also disappeared from the Stardom ring after Giulia said goodbye. According to MICHIKO, she joined Stardom "to get revenge for the grudge from back then." It remains to be seen how Giulia will feel when she faces MICHIKO, as her forgotten past has been brought up again
MICHIKO was booed when she was called up to the ring. The gong was struck, but neither of them moved from their corners. MICHIKO slowly walked forward, and Giulia came out as well. They glared at each other in the center of the ring, and MICHIKO poked her. She threw an elbow, and Giulia stood up to receive it. Giulia endured the repeated blows. As MICHIKO's elbows got stronger, Giulia slapped her. Giulia pushed her down, got mount, and delivered elbows and slaps. When MICHIKO tried to turn, Giulia turned back and slapped her from both sides before attempting an armbar. When MICHIKO escaped, Giulia shouted "Hey MICHIKO!" and stomped on her. MICHIKO pulled Giulia's leg as she dashed out, trying to lure her into a fight outside the ring. MICHIKO threw Giulia into the audience. She tried to throw her in another direction, but Giulia slammed her in the opposite direction. Giulia slams MICHIKO into the ring post and charges forward. MICHIKO catches her and powerbombs her onto the apron. The crowd boos, but MICHIKO taunts them, "That's not enough!" MICHIKO hits Giulia with a chair. MICHIKO brings Giulia back into the ring and throws her out of the ring again from the opposite direction. She slams Giulia's forehead onto the apron and then onto the table at the commentator's table. She then climbs onto the table and attempts a piledriver. Giulia resists and headbutts her, then delivers a piledriver on the table. The crowd chants Giulia's name. Giulia brings MICHIKO back into the ring and delivers a series of elbows. She grabs MICHIKO's big boot and delivers an Italian hook and a knee. When MICHIKO retaliates, Giulia pulls her hair and makes her stand up. MICHIKO pulls the referee, causing Giulia's big boot to hit the wrong person. MICHIKO slammed Giulia down, then grabbed a chair and delivered a Tombstone Piledriver. Amid boos, MICHIKO had the referee count. Giulia kicked out, and MICHIKO got back up. Giulia immediately went for a back drop and a Glorious. MICHIKO countered, pulling her arm and kicking her away. Giulia threw her backwards, seemingly convinced of victory, but only got a two count. She went for a Northern Lights Bomb and got the three count
Julia said, "Hello everyone in Ota Ward! Hey, hey, Andras... no, I mean MICHIKO? It's been a while. I'll give you credit for coming here alone, but you and I see things completely differently! This is truly Arrivederci, goodbye."
MICHIKO: "I'll make you regret everything that happened here, Julia!"
Julia: "(Without a microphone) That's it!"
Julia's comment
"Alright, alright, today's the opening match of the tag league, hey hey. Giulia-sama, the two-time champion, will be up against Andras Miyagi, no, MICHIKO. We've had a lot of reunions since last year, but you're the one I can't figure out what you're thinking the most, and you've been the hardest to deal with, to be honest. Don't make me so uncomfortable. But, as I said earlier, I'll give you credit for coming alone. Our goals and everything else are completely different. I'm sure this will really be the last time. I have my entrance ceremony (for the tag league), so see you later."
MICHIKO's comment
"Julia, Julia! Julia!! I'm going to make you regret what you did here, so remember that!"

Kurumi Hiiragi |
| Suzu Suzuki [1 item] | Risa Sera [1 point] | |
The tag team of Suzu Suzuki and Mei Seira will face off in their first tag league match. Suzuki recently won the 5★STAR GP for the first time, and Seira has just captured the High Speed Championship. The two have only started teaming up since joining Stardom, but they have already achieved success individually, and it's certain that they will be eager to take on the tag team challenge. Their opponents in their first match are Risa Sera and Kurumi Hiiragi of Prominence. In Stardom, they formed a trio with Suzuki and captured the Artist Championship, but after losing the title, Suzuki left Prominence. Therefore, Suzuki is now an enemy of Sera and Kurumi. What will be the outcome of this grudge match?
During the tag team league tournament entrance ceremony, Sera and Hiiragi provoked Suzuki. Sera appealed, "Stop making so much noise. Let's have the match now. You're not going to run away, are you, Suzu?" Suzuki responded, "Hey, hey, hey, Prominence, you're getting ahead of yourself. Fine, I'm not going to run away! I'll do it!!" and the match started. After a brawl outside the ring, Suzuki and Seira teamed up and attacked Sera in a coordinated attack. Hiiragi delivered a corner body attack to all of them. Sera was caught in the crossfire but landed a series of knees on Seira. Seira countered with a dropkick. Suzuki delivered a dropkick to Sera from under the ring. Suzuki applied a submission hold to Sera. Sera caught Suzuki in a reverse Boston crab. Suzuki tried to escape but was pulled back to the center and the hold was tightened. Cornered, Suzuki dodged Sera's charge and delivered a sliding German suplex. As Suzuki climbed onto the corner, Sera delivered a series of elbows from below. Suzuki attempted a hurricanrana, but Sera lifted her up and slammed her to the mat. Suzuki took Sera's back, but Sera countered, and they exchanged elbows. Sera delivered a series of elbows with both hands, and Suzuki retaliated, leaving both on the ground. Hiiragi lifted Suzuki up and slammed her forward, then delivered a diving foot tump.10minutes had passed. Suzuki dodged Hiiragi's charge, and Seira delivered a neckbreaker, while Suzuki followed up with a knee attack from behind. Suzuki hit Hiiragi with a missile kick. Hiiragi countered, and Suzuki went for a tequila shot. However, Hiiragi countered with a side slam. Sera cornered Suzuki and delivered a double knee attack. Hiiragi hit a cannonball. Hiiragi attempted a lariat, but Seira broke it up. Hiiragi hit a heartless driver, but Suzuki kicked out at the last moment. 3 minutes remaining. Suzuki dodges Hiiragi's somersault from the corner and, with an assist from Seira, delivers a German suplex. Suzuki is countered but climbs onto the corner and prepares for a dive. Sera climbs up and delivers a superplex. Hiiragi slams Suzuki to the mat but gets a two count. Suzuki slams Hiiragi with a Canadian Destroyer, but Hiiragi counters with a lariat. Suzuki quickly gets up and delivers a Tequila Shot. Hiiragi counters, and Suzuki hits her with a series of buzzsaw kicks. With30seconds remaining, Hiiragi attempts an axe guillotine but gets a two count. Suzuki and Hiiragi exchange elbows as the time limit is reached.
Comments from the Sera Group
Sera: "Damn it. We were thinking that if we launched a surprise attack like that, we would definitely win, but I guess they know us too well. Of course we know her personality, and we knew that if we provoked her like that, she would definitely take the bait. But right now they're the 5★STAR winners, right? Suzu Suzuki, who's on a roll, and Seira Mei, the High Speed Champion. We didn't want to lose the first match. It's a bit disappointing that it ended in a draw after our surprise attack, but I think today they've seen what kind of tag team we are. From now on, the two of us big guys will go on a roll and take down Stardom wrestlers one after another, so the rest of you look forward to it. Our target (in the tag league)? Of course it was Suzu's head, but it was the first match and our surprise attack today failed, so we've changed direction for now. The only way to be on par with her is to win the tournament. I want to win the tournament, stand on the same level as Suzu, and beat her to a pulp again."
Comments from Suzuki Group
Suzuki: "Hey, hey, hey, Prominence. You guys are a little too hasty. You must be excited to be back in Stardom after so long, huh? Well, I know better than anyone how strong you are and how tenacious you are. But the Suzuki Suzu that I used to work with you guys is gone. Stop messing around. I'm trying to climb higher and higher than you, so don't get in my way. Don't ever show your face in front of me again."
Seira: "My first match was against Prominence, and it was against Suzu right at the entrance ceremony... I didn't know what to do. But I hate draws more than losses. Also, I haven't really fought against someone much bigger than me, so this has shown me my shortcomings, and I'll work on improving them going forward. I'll do my best."

This is an official match between Club Venus, consisting of Shirakawa Mina and Tsukiyama Waka, and the team of Iida Saya and HANAKO. Iida and HANAKO may seem like an odd couple, but if their powers work together, their potential is tremendous. Iida and Hanan have captured the NEW BLOOD Tag Team Championship, and HANAKO is also expected to make a big leap in NEW BLOOD. On the other hand, Club Venus will likely see Shirakawa leading Tsukiyama. Which team will take the lead in this first match and gain momentum?

Shirakawa: "Yay, Waka!"
Tsukiyama: "Yay, Mina!"
Shirakawa: "Moonlight Venus won their first match. What do you think? They faced their idol, the NEW BLOOD Tag Team Champions, right?"
Tsukiyama: "When I first came to Stardom, Iida-san was so muscular, and I wanted to be like her, but I just couldn't. (Shirakawa hits her in the stomach) No, not my stomach... But after taking a chop today, I realized that Iida-san is a strong-willed person, so I need to train my mental strength even more."
Shirakawa: "Oh, let's train our mental strength. Oh, I've got a great idea. I'm going to Thailand, and I want to go to a Muay Thai dojo, let's go."
Tsukiyama: "..."
Shirakawa: "That way we might be able to scout Fromtai for Club Venus. Let's go. This is the start of Club Venus's second story. Let's do our best. Waka is the key point!"
Tsukiyama: "We're going to challenge for the NEW BLOOD Tag Team Championship. Iida, Hanan, just you wait."

Their first opponents are the team of Sorei Ami and Lady C. Although they are a crossover team, they too may be able to match Maika's team in terms of scale.

Shuri: "They've already made their mark from around the world. I'm so happy. I didn't expect to see the video so I didn't know who it was, but anyway, let's have a match. I'm looking forward to fighting you, so just wait. Um, we lost in the opening match of the tag league, but Saki and I will make a comeback with our Anecon tag team and we will definitely, definitely win the championship, so please watch us."
Comments from Natsuko's group
Momo: "Hey, hey, hey, this is a piece of cake. There's no way we Extra Large are going to lose to someone like Kashima Saki who's always running away. Right? We're going to win this tag league, and although we haven't really set any specific goals yet, we'll probably start aiming for a lot of things, won't we? Anyway, today's a piece of cake. See ya!"
Natsuko: "Okay then!"

I don't know how long it's been, but she's become a completely different person, a different wrestler...I was kind of desperate. The other day, I was thinking I should act like a senior like KAIRI-san, but I couldn't. I was desperate...But I'm really happy that I was able to fight as a STARS in the main event of such a big tournament and that I won. Thank you. And since it's the main event, there's a closing, and I've thought about what to say for the FWC closing. Oh, sorry, you didn't hear? I didn't say it, did I? (laughs wryly). When I say, 'Believe in the present, shine tomorrow,' please shout, 'The winners are Fukuoka Double Crazy!' Here we go. Believe in the present, shine tomorrow, the winners are Fukuoka Double Crazy!"

Koguma: "This is the first time I've ever done the closing of the FWC."
Hazuki: "I could hear you clearly."
