Sayaka Kurei directly asked Saya Kamitani to challenge her for the World Championship during a book signing event for her autobiography, but was shot down with "I'm not gonna do it, you idiot!" / February 21st Osaka Tournament Report

Sayaka Kurei, who is aiming for the next challenge for the World of Stardom Championship, has taken action as she had promised

Before the "STARDOM in OSAKA 2026 Feb." event (February 21st, Edion Arena Osaka 2nd Gymnasium), reigning champion Saya Kamitani, who is currently sidelined due to a finger injury, made an appearance to hand out copies of her autobiography, "The Story of How I, a Failed Idol, Became the Center of the Pro Wrestling World." And who should appear but Kurei

What's more, he went to great lengths to maintain his appearance, even wearing a hat, glasses, and a mask when he lined up for the meet-and-greet. When it was his turn and he revealed his face, even Kamiya looked surprised and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Then Kurei pleaded, "Kamitani Saya, I knew you would come today. I've already read your whole autobiography. So just let me challenge for the red belt!"

He challenged Kamiya, who had successfully achieved his ninth consecutive victory at the February 7 Osaka tournament, but was flatly rejected with a "Go home." Since then, Kamiya has been sidelined due to injury, and his challenge has not yet been recognized

Upon learning that she would be attending the Osaka tournament that day, Kurei decided to speak to her directly. The previous night at the Otsu tournament, she had cryptically promised, "I'm looking forward to tomorrow's Osaka tournament."

However, Kamiya retorted, "What? I'm not going to let you! Why are there so many sticky notes in it?" and struck him with the book he had snatched. He then ordered, "You're Lady Shami's servant, aren't you? Stand here and thank your servants!"

"I'll do anything, just let me try!" Kurei pleaded, but Kamiya wouldn't listen. "You'll have to thank her deeply. Come on, even more deeply," he declared, and made her stand in the same shop and serve customers

Reluctantly, Kurei dutifully continued to bow to the customers, saying, "Thank you very much!" As Kamiya continued to give her stern instructions, "Say it louder! Thank your servant!", Kurei, having completed the task to the end, demanded again, "I did a good job, so let me try again!"

But Kamiya stomped on Kurei and said, "Are you stupid? I don't know who you're trying to imitate, but you're talking nonsense about GPS. I'm not going to do that, you idiot!" and quickly left the store. Kurei's profile as she chased after him with a look of frustration on her face was memorable
