Cosmic Angels' team of Tam Nakano, Saori Anno, and Sayaka Kurei will clash with H.A.T.E.'s team of Natsuko Tora, Saya Kamitani, and Ryuka in a six-person tag team match. Just recently, at the September 22nd Kaminoyama event, Nakano, Anno, and Natsupoi of Cosmic Angels successfully defended the Artist of Stardom Championship against Natsuko, Kamitani, and Ryuka. What kind of scene will unfold now that Kurei has replaced Natsupoi? This is a revenge match for H.A.T.E., and Kamitani's fighting style, having been directly defeated by Anno, will also be something to watch.
Kurei nominated Kamitani to start the match. As soon as the bell rang, Kamitani delivered three consecutive dropkicks followed by a series of elbows. However, Kamitani countered with an elbow that sent Kurei flying. Ryuka then hit Kurei with a shoulder tackle, a hair whip, and a corner body attack. Natsuko delivered a lightning-fast brainbuster to Kurei, followed by a senton. Kurei kicked out, and Natsuko applied a sleeper hold.

Kamiya dodges Kurei's neckbreaker and H.A.T.E. launches a corner attack, and Kamiya hits a fisherman suplex.

Nakano dodged Kamiya's Star Crusher and landed a spin kick, and Kurei went for the pin. Kamiya reversed with a double kick, and Kurei went on top for the cover. Kamiya reversed again, and Kurei rolled her up in a series of pins. Kamiya also countered, and they exchanged pins. Kurei got on top and the referee counted to three. After the match, Kamiya protested to the referee, but it was too late. Kamiya attacked Kurei, and a brawl ensued. Kozuen came to Kurei's aid. Kurei crawled up and hugged Kamiya, but Kamiya pushed her away and left the ring.
Comments from Tam Nakano, Saori Anno, and Sayaka Kurei
Kurei: "Finally, finally, I was able to win with my own strength... not just with my own strength, but with my own strength. I was hoping that if I could show Kamiya that I'm different from the person I was in my debut match, she might come back to me, but that didn't work out... But I was able to win with my own strength. Thank you."
Anno: "I was so happy to hear those cheers and the Kurei chants."
Nakano: "Everyone is dreaming about Kurei, and Tamu is dreaming about Kurei too... (voice trembling). It's really amazing."
Anno: "That's amazing. I think I need to think about that too. To make this artist's belt shine, and also for myself."
Nakano: "Kurei, congratulations on your first victory on your own!"
Kurei: "Thank you."
Nakano: "Oh, what time is it now? Tamu, I have to go to the opening pitch ceremony (for the Yakult vs. Hanshin game at Jingu Stadium). Sorry, let's celebrate later. I'll throw 150 km/h!"
Kurei: "I will continue to work hard so that I can show you all even more brilliant sides of myself, so please keep watching me. Thank you."

After the match, Iwatani showed off the belt. Tony responded with a fighting pose, and Iwatani left the ring.
Comments from Mina Shirakawa and Toni Storm
Tony: "I missed you. You smell nice."
Shirakawa: "I know, I know. I smell good. We're a great team, aren't we? Just a little while ago, I couldn't have imagined teaming up with Tony in the Stardom ring at Korakuen Hall like this. But after going back and forth between AEW and Stardom and doing all sorts of things, this is the result, and I'm having the time of my life. I'm so happy!"
Tony: "We're the best team, aren't we?"
Shirakawa: "Best Friend"
Tony: "We're like family!"
Shirakawa: "We are a good family. You, me, and Mariah."
Tony: "...Who's that? I've never heard that name before. Not in my life."
Shirakawa: "You didn't know? I just saw one on Wednesday. In America."
Tony: "That's right, I remember now! That's right... Yes, we need to go for a special massage. First, let's go to Roppongi. First things first, a highball. A highball, please!"
Shirakawa: "Isn't it Strong Zero?"
Tony: "I love Strong Zero too, though."
Shirakawa: "Let's drink a lot, a lot!"
Tony: "So many Strong Zeros? It feels like the old days."
Shirakawa: "What about the IWGP (women's)?"
Tony: "Mayu Iwatani is a bitch! Mayu is stupid. I'm going to become the new champion soon. And I'm going to end Mayu Iwatani's life in one go! Well then, I'm looking forward to Strong Zero. Let's go. I have a massage appointment."
Mayu Iwatani & AZM Comments
AZM: "I've worked really hard to challenge for this belt next, and I'm very disappointed that I lost to Tony, but I hope Tony will defend it and I'll challenge for it again next time."
Iwatani: "I'll be waiting, anytime."
AZM: "Please."
Iwatani: "Please."
AZM left the room
Iwatani: "Well, in today's preliminary match, I fought Toni Storm for the first time in six years, and I don't really know what she was like back then, but she's incredibly strong, her power is amazing. And she has a unique sense of timing, or rather, an atmosphere that makes you feel like you're going to be swallowed up by her, and although I lost this preliminary match, there's still one more preliminary match before the title match. Well, well, well, it's fine to lose a preliminary match...it's frustrating, but it's still okay to lose a preliminary match, as long as I win the title match. I just need to be careful with each and every move. Timeless? I'll be careful not to get drawn into that world, and I want to do my own iconic pro wrestling. And beyond that, I want to have another title match against AZM, or rather, AZM already? I want to run full speed ahead this year as well."

Did you think I'd change my mind about you...you idiot! Hey, a damn octopus like you deserves to spend your whole life running around and running away. Get out of here, you bastard!!"
Tekla: "Shurisan, Kashimasan, thank you for your hard work. Go home, go home, go home. See you again."
Momo: "Well, well, well, Goddess easily defended her title. Of course. This result was only natural. And, (October 5th) Nagoya? Tekla, you're wearing the white belt, right?"
Tekura: "That's right, let's do our best in the summer competition. White Tekura is looking forward to it!"
Momo: "You're being so serious. That's fine, that's fine. It's totally fine, do whatever you want, you're still my tag team partner. Well, I defended my title today, I was in that damn Sendai Girls yesterday, and now I'm going to be in that damn Diana, hey, what's going on, am I too busy? It's crazy. Even though I'm busy, the world, the world of women's pro wrestling, is calling for HATE, no, Watanabe Momo. I know, I know. That's fine.

Momo: "Those weaklings are no match for us. Aren't there any other tag teams out there? Hey, aren't there any strong, cool, good tag teams? I mean, aren't you busy?"
Tekla: "It's quite busy, isn't it?"
Momo: "That's right. There are all sorts of things going on in Tekura, aren't there?"
Tekla: "Something happened yesterday too, didn't it?"
Momo: "It happened yesterday too."
Tekla: "The worst."
Momo: "And there's also a tag team league."
Tekla: "There's a tag team league too! This is the worst!"
Momo: "It's a damn busy time for the Goddess Champion. And yet other organizations are brought in too, hey what's up with this damn company! It's fine, it's fine. It's fine. You want it, don't you? That's what you want. Hey, you want me, don't you? Fine. I'll destroy all the organizations. That's all. Tekla?"
Tekla: "Is that all? Well, Tekla, God's Eye, you should try harder. I was a little worried because you're too weak. But Momo's kicks are strong."
Momo: "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay!"
Tekura: "The next big match is in Nagoya. It's a summer event. Tekura will be busy too. It's really busy, so do your best with this one too. White Tekura... I'm looking forward to it. I'll bring another belt."
Momo: "Yes, yes."
Tekura: "I'm busy, can't be helped. I'll go home today."
Momo: "Let's go home."
Tekura: "Thank you for your hard work."
Akari's comment
"Goddess... I wanted to wear the belt with Saki today. But it didn't happen today. But I will never give up. I want to wear the Goddess belt with Saki! We will definitely wear that belt together. In the tag team league, Saki and I will compete as the 凹Anecon凸. And we will seize the results!"
