The singles match between Nakano Tam and Shinkigura Misa, which had once been shelved, finally took place. The two were once idols together, but a big gap has opened up since they became professional wrestlers. Shinkigura finally got the chance to face Nakano in a singles match, but due to her absence, the one-on-one match at her home ring, JTO, was canceled. Instead, it was held at Stardom, where she had requested the match.
The match started without a handshake. Nakano called her over, and as they stared at each other in the center, Shinkigura delivered an elbow, which Nakano countered. Shinkigura delivered a series of punches and grabbed her hair. Nakano swung Shinkigura into the ropes, and Shinkigura delivered a shoulder tackle. Nakano countered with a neckbreaker, stomps, and a series of soccer ball kicks. Nakano drove her into the corner, stomped on her face, delivered a thrust elbow, kicks from the front and back, and a heel drop. Shinkigura countered, Nakano body slammed her and applied a reverse crab hold. Shinkigura somehow escaped. Nakano slaps him with a series of slaps, saying, "I thought you'd cancel again today." Shinkigura elbows him, saying, "Don't mess with me," and Nakano immediately retaliates with an elbow followed by a dropkick. Shinkigura counters with a shoulder tackle. He then hits three more shoulder tackles and covers. Nakano returns, and Shinkigura hits an elbow drop and a senton. Shinkigura fires up and hits a lariat, but Nakano dodges and takes his back. Shinkigura holds on, and Nakano hits an elbow, but Nakano takes Shinkigura's elbow and stands up. Nakano takes Shinkigura down with an elbow and taunts him, saying, "Get up!" Shinkigura elbows Nakano, who stands in a pose with his legs crossed. After an exchange of elbows, Shinkigura hits more with a series of hits, which Nakano blocks and counters. Shinkigura stops Nakano's charge, slams him to the mat, and counters with a lariat. With both men down, Shinkigura gets up first and charges forward. Nakano puts his foot out and applies a hanging dragon sleeper in the corner. Shinkigura falls to the outside of the ring, and Nakano flies off with a plancha. Nakano lifts Shinkigura up and receives an elbow. Nakano prepares for a brainbuster, but Shinkigura slams him back. Shinkigura returns to the ring first and hits Nakano with a skewering spear and a diving senton from the corner. 10 minutes have passed. Nakano returns, and Shinkigura announces the end and hits a diving senton from the corner. Nakano dodges and hits a Violet Shooting and takes Shinkigura's back. Shinkigura counters, but Nakano hits a spin kick and a German suplex. Shinkigura returns, dodging Nakano's Violet Shooting and hitting a hip drop, followed by a back lariat and another lariat. However, Nakano counters. Shinkigura hits another hit from the corner with a Violet Shooting and a diving senton. When Nakano returns, Shinkigura hits the downed Nakano with a series of elbows, then picks him up and slaps him, charging at him saying "It's over" but only gets hit with a thrust kick. Shinkigura doesn't fall down, so Nakano hits him again, taunting him by saying "Get up" and "Stand up". Shinkigura takes his hand and goes for an elbow. Nakano hits an elbow followed by a Violet Shooter. When Shinkigura returns, Nakano hits a Tiger Suplex. The three count gives Nakano the victory.
Nakano: "Misa, you came today. Did you have the card put together in a hurry because Tamu is likely to retire?" But don't worry. I'll definitely win on April 27th (against Kamitani Saya at Yokohama Arena) and I won't retire. So, right now, live every moment to the fullest, feel lots of regrets, put everything into pro wrestling, become stronger, and come and offer me another chance as a freelancer
Shinkimegura: "I can't beat Tamu in every way, and I'm full of regrets, but I'm really grateful that Tamu spent this moment facing the current Shinkimegura Misa today. Thank you. Tamu is so amazing that I thought I wouldn't even remember her, or Tamu's path as a female pro wrestler, but you faced me so bravely, and the audience here didn't miss this moment, so I promise myself that from today onwards I'll become even stronger. I was worried about the possibility of Tamu retiring, but I think Tamu said those words because she believes in herself, everyone here, and everyone watching this match who isn't here. Huh? Can you get that? It's because Tamu has worked so hard, but it's also because of the support of so many people that he is able to believe in himself, and that's what I realized when I competed against him. So I decided to believe in myself, too, and to believe in myself and the people around me more, and to work even harder and more honestly. Thank you so much for today. And from now on... sorry it was so long. Thank you very much."
Nakano: "This is the first time I've seen someone with a microphone longer than Tamu. Come soon."
