The awards ceremony for the "2025 Pro Wrestling Awards" established by Tokyo Sports Newspaper was held at a hotel in Tokyo on the 7th, and Saya Kamitani, who won both the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award and the Women's Pro Wrestling Award, was in attendance
As the award recipients who had graced the world of professional wrestling in 2025 were honored, Saya-sama, clad in a furisode kimono with a black base and red floral patterns, made her grand finale appearance. She gracefully ascended the stage, captivating the attention of all those present
This is the first time a female wrestler has received the MVP award at the 52nd annual Pro Wrestling Awards. Koji Hiranabe, president of Tokyo Sports Newspaper, read out the award certificate, saying, "You defended the prestigious World Championship for a year, and in your loser-gets-retired match against Tam Nakano, you captivated the hearts of your followers with your soul-stirring, fierce battle. In recognition of your remarkable achievements both inside and outside the ring, which have made professional wrestling widely known to the public, we present Saya with the first-ever Most Valuable Player award for a female wrestler," and then presented her with a trophy and a certificate
With a sinister smile, Saya-sama's first words were, "First of all... OZAWA! I overheard you backstage, you're so noisy! You're such a small-minded man!" This was because, just before, at the awards ceremony for the best match of the year (Best Bout), OZAWA of Pro Wrestling Noah, who was aiming for the MVP award, had sent her a message that could be interpreted as a provocation
Regaining her composure, Saya-sama exclaimed, "I have become the first woman in history to win the Pro Wrestling Grand Prix MVP and the Women's Pro Wrestling Grand Prix, yeah!" The venue erupted in thunderous applause
Immediately afterwards, she began by saying, "Of course, that's what you'd expect from Saya-sama. The view looking down on all the pro wrestlers is the best. Well, since I've been named MVP, Saya-sama will make a promise to you all here," and then declared, "In the near future, I will definitely make STARDOM the number one organization in the industry, and Saya-sama will take you all to the Tokyo Dome. In 2026, I will show my servants the biggest nightmare in history! That's all!" and left the stage in high spirits.
