| Momo Watanabe <6 points> |
10分27秒 |
AZM<4 points> |
Momo Watanabe and AZM will face off against fellow Queen's Quest wrestlers. This is a matchup that can only be found in a singles league match. Momo is looking to make a fresh start as a singles player at the 5★STAR GP, but as the former Wonder of Stardom champion, she has a somewhat disappointing record of 2 wins and 2 losses. She'll want to secure a win here, but given her weakness to roll-ups, there's a real risk that AZM will take her by surprise. Meanwhile, AZM has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses, just like Momo, so she's putting up a solid showing so far. A win here would further accelerate her momentum as the "eye of the storm."

| Kagetsu <4 pieces> |
4分13秒 |
Jamie Hayter <6 points> |
This is a showdown between fellow Oedo Tai wrestlers. As the leader of the organization, Kagetsu's top priority is to win, but he's facing Jamie Hayter, who is in good form with a 3-1 record, so he's expected to face a tough fight. Hayter also has a chance to make his first big achievement in Japan, so he's sure to be relentless in his attacks, even though he's from the same school. This match could determine whether the Blue Stars advance to the finals

Kagetsu attempted a swan dive from the apron, but Hater blocked it and delivered a backbreaker and a chokeslam. He then used a Gokuraku-gatame to force a submission. He then lifted him up in that position and flipped him to the ground. He transitioned from a body choke sleeper hold to a dragon sleeper hold, but Kagetsu held on. Kagetsu somehow escaped to the ropes. Kagetsu escaped a brainbuster. He dodged Hater's charge, sending him crashing into the referee, before spraying water and hitting an Oedo Coaster and a Death Valley Bomb. This got the three count, and Kagetsu earned the points

Tora Natsuko <0 points> |
Former JAN members Jungle Kyona and Tora Natsuko will clash. The two have now parted ways with TCS and Oedo Tai, but at last year's 5★STAR GP, Natsuko defeated Kyona in the final official match, preventing her from advancing to the finals. Despite her lackluster performance in official matches, she still managed to pull off a major victory. Natsuko is struggling to get started this time around, with three straight losses, but if she can beat Kyona again, she'll likely become even more prominent. Meanwhile, Kyona started off with a losing streak, but signaled her counterattack by defeating World of Stardom Champion Bea Priestley. Kyona is in a position where she could easily win, so she'll be aiming for a winning streak from here on out

Tam Nakano <6 points> |
Iwatani Mayu vs. Nakano Tam is a showdown between fellow STARS wrestlers, as well as a showdown between former Artist of Stardom champions. Iwatani has two wins and two losses so far. While her record against the defending champion is questionable, last year she started with a losing streak before sweeping the 5★STAR GP. This means that Iwatani's real challenge is about to begin. However, her opponent is Nakano, who has been in good form with three wins and one loss so far. She can no longer face Nakano expecting her to be the same as before. If Nakano defeats Iwatani here and scores two points, it will be a major step towards advancing to the finals. Will Iwatani be able to tie her with Nakano by taking the lead in wins, or will Nakano be able to pull away from Iwatani?

Iwatani slams her back, but it's only a two count. Iwatani sends Nakano out of the ring with a low dropkick and then goes for a plancha. Back in the ring, she hits a diving foot stomp. Nakano returns, and Iwatani goes to the corner. Nakano stops her and climbs to the corner to take her back. Iwatani blocks it, but Nakano hits a high kick from below.

ビー・プレストリー<4点> |
World of Stardom Champion Bea Priestley and Wonder of Stardom Champion Arisa Hoshiki face off in an official match. Priestley, who holds the red belt, lost to Jungle Kyona by ringout, ending her winning streak, and this match marks a fresh start. Priestley was undefeated in singles matches before the 5★STAR GP, but her momentum has declined since entering the league, with a surprising record of 1 win and 3 losses. A loss here would mean she would be eliminated from the championship race, so she absolutely cannot afford to lose. Defeating the red belt champion might help her regain momentum and stay just within the championship race (albeit by relying on others), but for Priestley, this is a golden opportunity to prove her status as the strongest foreigner and that red is superior. Of course, this will also give her momentum towards her first 5★STAR GP victory. What will the outcome of this championship showdown be?
The match began without a handshake. Hoshiki threatened with low kicks, but Pressley charged in and took him down, taking him to the ground. Pressley applied a headlock, but Hoshiki countered with a headlock. Pressley pushed Hoshiki into the ropes and pretended to break, then delivered an elbow. He dodged a kick from Hoshiki and exchanged arm whips. Hoshiki won the throw, but his charge into the corner was dodged. Pressley attacked Hoshiki's right knee and tied it to the third rope. He then put Hoshiki on the second rope and kicked him away. Pressley applied a camel clutch. Hoshiki dodged and delivered a double knee attack and a double knee drop. He also delivered a knee drop using the second rope. Pressley countered, and they dodged high kicks. Pressley grabbed his right knee and tightened the hold. He threw him down with a back drop and charged with a knee. Hoshiki cleared a modified back drop hold. Five minutes passed. Pressley applied a kneebar. Hoshiki escaped and dodged a charge. Pressley puts Hoshiki in the corner and prepares for an avalanche brainbuster. Hoshiki dodges it, but Pressley delivers a high kick from below. Hoshiki goes to the apron and Pressley hits a foot stamp on his back. Hoshiki goes to the outside. Pressley puts Hoshiki on his shoulders in preparation for the finish. Hoshiki rolls him forward, but it's only a two count. Hoshiki hits a series of knee attacks, but Pressley counters with a knee of his own. Hoshiki counters and jumps in to pin him down, for a three count. Hoshiki wins the championship match and takes his second victory
Hoshiki: "How are you all doing in Shinkiba?! I can't lose anymore. I'm the type of wrestler who goes for a pretty straightforward approach, but I thought that definitely wouldn't work this time, so I used a move that I don't usually use to get the three count. Is Ospreay at the venue today? I wonder where Ospreay is? Oh, I can't see him. He's not here. Well, I think those of you who have been following me on Twitter know what I'm talking about, but if I beat Bea, I would get to use Ospreay's moves. I'm going to be the first to acquire those physical abilities, so please look forward to it. With that, let's close together. Believe in the present, shine for tomorrow, We are STARS!"
Comment from Hoshiki
I've had a string of consecutive losses, and when I thought I'd won, I'd lose again, so it's been a rough ride, but the reason I've been losing up until now is because I'm too straightforward, which is one of my strengths. This time, I've made a conscious effort to change that. I've made a switch. I've learned how to fight. So, tomorrow, I'm going to be facing Karasu-san. Oh, Miyagi-san. I'll win in a slightly different way than usual, so please enjoy."
-How strong was the red belt champion?
"It hurts. And the pressure is incredible, really. Well. He calls me his rival, and I think of him as my rival too. Today is just the beginning, with Bee. So I haven't shown everything in this match. I want to continue this with him for a while longer, so please look forward to it in the future."
-Are you thinking about challenging for the red belt?
"Today, for the first time, I thought I should aim for the red belt too. She's been provoking me so much. Of course, I want to show that the white belt is even more impressive. Right now, the value of the white belt is Arisa Hoshiki, and the value of the red belt is Bea Priestley. It's a one-on-one battle, yes."
-How is your left leg, which you injured in Osaka?
"Yes, I am getting better. I am getting better. But I am participating in this with the utmost excitement for 5★STAR, but it's not going to be easy. But I have been waiting for this unpleasant scene. There is no point in getting 5★STAR if I don't feel that way. So I will keep going up from here. I will still grow, I will still grow."
