Following her loss in the Goddesses of Stardom Championship match at the Yokohama event on April 27th, Oedo Tai expelled Kid. It was Tam Nakano of Cosmic Angels who extended a helping hand. Furthermore, at the Fukuyama event the day before, Mayu Iwatani of STARS rushed to Kid's rescue after the match and called for her return to STARS. Kid has not given a clear answer to either, but as with the previous event, she will face Oedo Tai in a Cosmic Angels partnership with Nakano. Will there be any progress on the Kid issue? Or something else? Also, Thekla, who appeared in Yokohama on April 27 to announce her return to Stardom and revealed her joining Oedo Tai, will be competing in her second match as a member of Oedo Tai in this match.

Thekla sets up for a double armlock. Kurei resists, and Thekla charges in with a back kick, with Nakano and Kid providing support as Kurei goes for a jackknife. But Momo breaks it up. Momo's middle kick accidentally hits Natsuko, and Nakano and Kid exchange dropkicks, with Kid flying to the outside with a plancha. Thekla is brought back in, and Kurei lands a spear.

Suzuki: "It's already been 30 seconds, hurry up and go home!" That was close, that was close. I almost got choked by those guys. Crazy Star won today, plus Anno Saori, so of course we're the ones who will finish them off! On May 5th, Fukuoka Wanpaku Kumagoro over there will challenge for the Goddess title."

Saori Anno's comment
"Yesterday, Yunamon suddenly declared that she wanted to have a match. What's going on with Natsumi and Tamu? And Natsumi said that Poi is one or even several steps ahead of her. She's saying the things that hurt me the most when I hear them. Maybe I should become the only one in this industry who refuses to do it. Just kidding, just kidding. I'll do it. On May 4th, at the Kumamoto tournament, I'll have a singles match against Yunamon. I don't know Kumamoto very well, so teach me about it. And it'll be Yunamon's first singles match, so maybe I'll get to know her better. So, please invite my beloved Kumamon and give him your support. Also, Crazy Star, defend your belt."
