This title match sees Starlight Kid challenging Natsupoi for the Wonder of Stardom Championship. The two have faced each other many times in singles matches, starting with their battle for the High Speed Championship. Eventually, Natsupoi reached the white belt and has successfully defended it twice so far. Now, she faces Kid, whom she has fought since the beginning of her time in Stardom, for the belt. Since this match was announced, the two have clashed many times in preliminary matches. This match seems to be the culmination of their careers up to this point.

Kid: "Natsupoi! Natsupoi finally got this belt, and I finally, finally, finally got it too! Because our mutual desires clashed, it was the most intense battle we've ever had, and we both gave it our all, right? This fight was great. But today, I won! I'm always the one taking the belts, so next time, Natsupoi, come and take this belt back for me!" Natsupoi
shakes Kid's hand and leaves.
Kid: "Natsupoi, wait. You're an important rival that I can't do without! So, I'll never lose to you!"
Natsupoi gives the Poi sign and leaves.
Kid: "I'm Starlight Kid, and I've become the 24th Wonder of Stardom Champion! I'm so glad I didn't give up! First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to all the fans who have supported me and stuck with me all this time. Thank you so much!! Now that I'm wearing the belt, I'll make sure it shines the brightest. Finally, everyone at Ryogoku, can I hear your big SLK chant one more time!? Thank you! I'm so happy to be champion and to hear so many SLK chants. Next year will be the year of White Tiger SLK, so please continue to support me! Goodbye!"
"I'm the best rival, so I finally got to win it at the best stage, Ryogoku! I'm really glad that I was able to achieve my goal of winning it this year. To be honest, I don't know what would have happened if I had betrayed the expectations of myself. But when I won the High Speed belt on my eighth try, or when I won other belts, I always think this: I'm glad I didn't give up and quit pro wrestling. There were so many times when I couldn't win a belt unless I tried many times, to the point that I wondered if the belt really hated me, so those difficult and painful times helped me grow, and above all, it's important not to give up. I think I'm the one who can prove that more than anyone in the world of pro wrestling (laughs). I think this is true for everyone, not just in pro wrestling, but to never give up on your possibilities. I want to continue to convey this through pro wrestling. Ah Now that I'm wearing this belt, it brings with it all sorts of emotions, tears, past and present, and it feels really heavy. But because I finally got my hands on this belt, I want to make it even heavier. I will turn the eyes of the pro wrestling world, those involved, the media, and all the fans upside down. Not just for myself, but I want to expand the possibilities of women's pro wrestling even more. Giving up to the greedy Black Tiger and the greedy White Tiger is not an option. Also, next year will mark my 10th anniversary. I want to make next year the year of the White Tiger, SLK. And at the end of 2024, I am incredibly happy to be able to give the best present to my fans and myself. Thank you so much for today!
"It's been taken away. Congratulations, Kicchan. I love the white belt. I love that belt. That belt gave me dreams, so I want to give dreams to many people with my white belt. That feeling hasn't changed. There may have been many times when I lost the white belt and moved on to the next one, but I will definitely get that belt back. I said that Natsupoi would make a big splash in 2025. I love the white belt, but that doesn't mean I'll only be aiming for white. I'll take everything I can and then start rebuilding again. Kicchan, I'll lend you my Baby White for a little while. Natsupoi will take it back from you once more. Bye-bye."
