Shirakawa Mina, who had been absent due to injury, returns to face Tora Natsuko & Tekla at E neXus V with Maika. Maika had been calling out to Tekla, so with Shirakawa's return, will we see new developments?
As soon as Maika and Shirakawa entered the ring, they attacked H.A.T.E. Maika and Shirakawa launched thrust attacks at Tekla and delivered a double dropkick. Tekla returned fire, and Shirakawa delivered a series of mount punches. Natsuko tried to cut her off, but Maika sent her out of the ring.

Natsuko also threw Maika into the audience. At the 17 count, Tekla brought Shirakawa back, stomped on her repeatedly, then slapped her and delivered a thrust kick. Natsuko pinned Shirakawa to the ropes and splashed her with water. Shirakawa unleashes a barrage of strikes, dodging Natsuko's lariat and hitting a Kawazu Otoshi. Maika drops the substitute Tekla and they exchange shoulder strikes. Maika wins and prepares for a brainbuster. Natsuko holds on and they trade elbows. Maika counters with an elbow and a brainbuster. Natsuko hits a crossbody attack and a senton. Tekla stomps on Maika's face and hits a series of big boots, then jumps from the corner to avoid a lariat and applies a modified Manji hold. Maika holds on and hits a fallaway slam, a running lariat, multiple elbows, and a sliding lariat. Maika declares she's finished and goes for a Michidora. Tekla holds on and tries to lure her in from the apron. Natsuko hits a cannonball and Tekla hits a spear. But Shirakawa cuts her off. Tekla hits an elbow and a buzzsaw kick. Shirakawa bursts in with a rolling elbow and combines with Maika for a body press. Maika attempts an Enka Otoshi, but Natsuko is there to cut her off. Maika lifts Tekla and Shirakawa heads to the corner, but Natsuko cuts her off. Maika hits Tekla with a lariat and then goes for a Michinoku. Tekla counters with an elbow and hits her with an iron pipe. She shoves the referee and hits Maika. The referee calls for the bell, ending the match. Tekla is declared the loser by disqualification. Both teams continue to brawl after the match. Tekla assaults President Okada in the headquarters seats.
Shirakawa: "Hey, Tekla, don't mess with me. This Stardom ring is a place where only the real deal goes. It's not a ring for people like you who use weapons and do whatever they want. You're underestimating your own strength! Next week, I'll crush you in a singles match! If I win, you'll have to get down on your knees in the ring and apologize to everyone. Apologize for tarnishing the name of Stardom! And pay the fine. Isn't that right, audience?"
Tekla: "Hey hey hey, Minami Minami Mina, let me understand."
Shirakawa: "Ah, you don't understand Japanese?"
Tekla: "I can speak Japanese. (To Shirakawa, exasperated) Shut up!"
Shirakawa: "When you beat you, you apologize to everyone. And you pay the fine, bitch!"
Tekla: "Bitch? So you want to have a singles match with me next week? If I lose, I have to pay a fine and apologize to everyone?"
Shirakawa: "Yes."
Tekla: "You're such an idiot and a bitch! But if I win, I want to choose someone from Stardom for a singles match. Did you hear me, Okada? Translate for me."
Shirakawa: "If Tekla wins, let her have a one-on-one match with someone from Stardom. I said I want to be allowed to choose... I'm up for a singles match. Because, you know, you're never going to win, Tekla."
Tekla: "Well, well, well, see you there, see you over there. Shirakawa "Boobs" Mina."
Tekla leaves.
Shirakawa: "Okada-san, is it okay if we have a singles match? I'll win and make her apologize in front of all the Stardom fans."
Maika: "Ah! Tekla, do you think you're satisfied with just using a steel pipe? So, what do you really want to do? You want to talk, you want to talk using a steel pipe? There's no way you can talk like that
." Shirakawa: "What Tekla is doing is just assault. This isn't professional wrestling, this isn't fighting. You've got a wrong idea of strength. Do whatever you want. Professional wrestling is supposed to give the audience dreams. What are you showing them? It's just your own assault. It's just an assault scene. Those guys can't do it without a weapon." Maika: "I
don't need it."
Shirakawa: "I don't need it. I'll crush you properly next week and put an end to your life. Stop it."
"I finally have some company and can start again. Listen. My name is Tekla and I am the most hated person in Stardom. Maybe the most hated foreigner in Japan. Today is again sudden, but it can't be helped. Because next week I have a special singles match with Shirakawa Mina. If I lose, I have to pay the full fine. I haven't paid it yet, but I guess I'll have to if I lose. But the worst part is having to apologize to all those beautiful, beautiful Stardom pervs. But if I win, I get a singles match with whoever I want. So yeah, I better get ready. See you next week, bitches."
