STARS, consisting of Hanan, Iida Saya, and Kogo Momo, will be headlining for the second consecutive day, following their main event appearance at the Numazu show the previous day. Their opponents are Cosmic Angels' Natsupoi, Anno Saori, and Mizumori Yuna, marking their second consecutive match against Natsupoi and Anno. This match will also serve as a preliminary bout for the Goddesses of Stardom Championship match on June 21st in Yoyogi, for both Hanan & Iida and Natsupoi & Anno. In Numazu, STARS emerged victorious, and Hime Yuria, who teamed with Natsupoi & Anno, directly requested to join STARS, appealing for a place in the unit after achieving results, such as winning the NEW BLOOD Tag Team Championship with Kogo. Natsupoi & Anno, who lost the previous day, will be looking to avenge their defeat as a pure Cosmic Angels trio and put pressure on the champions in preparation for the title match…
When Kogo volunteered to start, Mizumori came out from Kozuen. They engaged in rope work, and Mizumori delivered an arm whip followed by a dropkick and a roll-up. Kogo returned the favor with an arm whip and a dropkick, called in STARS for a coordinated attack on Mizumori, and the trio delivered a dropkick. However, Mizumori dodged it, and Kozuen delivered a dropkick to all three of them. Mizumori swung Kogo around, slamming him into the legs that Natsupoi and Anno had put out. Anno put Kogo in an Indian deathlock. Iida came in and delivered a reverse chop. However, each time Kogo was put in an Indian deathlock, the damage accumulated, and Anno delivered a brainbuster to Iida, damaging Kogo once again. Kozuen trapped Kogo in the corner. Natsupoi attempted a dropkick on Kogo, but Hanan broke it up. Mizumori delivered a series of elbows to Kogo. Kogo countered with a dropkick and handed the ball to Iida. Iida delivered a series of reverse chops to Mizumori. Anno cuts in and throws Iida into the corner. Iida dodges and then hits both of them with a barrage of chops. As Iida climbs onto the corner, Mizumori attacks from behind. They clash shoulders and charge at each other, with Iida gaining the upper hand. Mizumori gets up and hits Iida with a shoulder tackle. Natsupoi hits Iida with a neckbreaker. Iida sends Natsupoi to the apron. Natsupoi slips past Iida and jumps on her, applying a modified Manji hold. Iida bounces off and hits a lariat. Natsupoi dodges and exchanges chops and elbows with Iida. Natsupoi is in pain but fights back. When Natsupoi's elbows weaken, Iida hits her with another barrage of chops. Natsupoi hits Iida with a series of dropkicks as she charges. Iida blocks a diving body attack and hits a sliding lariat. Hanan delivers a knee attack and a running elbow smash to Natsupoi from behind. Natsupoi retaliates, dodging Hanan and delivering an arm whip and a dropkick. Anno attempts a fisherman suplex on Hanan. Hanan resists and delivers a body attack. Anno retaliates, and Hanan attempts a blockbuster. Anno counters and applies a Gokuraku hold. She takes it to the ground and applies the hold, but Hanan manages to escape. 10 minutes have passed. Iida intervenes as Anno charges, and she and Hanan deliver an elbow sandwich attack. Anno retaliates, and they exchange elbows. Hanan delivers an elbow smash, Anno delivers a neckbreaker, and Kozuen delivers a heel drop as a trio. Hanan retaliates, and Iida sends Natsupoi and Mizumori to the outside with a lariat. Kogo jumps with a swan dive plancha, and STARS delivers a combined face crusher to Anno. Hanan declared she was going for the finish and went for a blockbuster hold. When Anno kicked out, Hanan yelled "I'm going to finish this!" and took Anno's back. Anno rolled her up, but Hanan reversed and rolled her up again. Iida and Kogo teamed up, but Natsupoi and Mizumori separated them. Anno slipped past Hanan and she and Natsupoi executed a kick combination, and Anno shouted "It's over!" and went for a German suplex. But Hanan managed to kick out. Anno went for a tantandol, and Hanan couldn't kick out, so the referee counted to three.
Anno: "Thank you, we won! I feel incredible energy from STARS and wing☆gori. Because we beat them, we've gained even more confidence. We'll wear that belt at Yoyogi on June 21st. And we'll be the center of Stardom." Hanan:
"We lost the final preliminary match, but STARS is the official army of Stardom! We will prove that we are the true official army at Yoyogi on June 21st. We ask for your support."
Both sides stare each other down. STARS leaves the ring.
Anno: "Shiga, huh. I really do love Shiga. I'll definitely come back, and next time I'll make sure we can perform at Ukaru-chan Arena (Shiga Prefectural Gymnasium) in Otsu City. I'll do everything I can to make it happen. Please come then."
Natsupoi: "By then, we'll all be wearing matching belts. Saori, you've always wanted to perform at Ikari-chan Arena, haven't you?"
Anno: "It's Ukaru-chan!" Natsupoi
: "Ukaru-chan." Anno:
"Not Ikari."
Natsupoi: "Let's definitely make it happen."
Mizumori: "Well then, Yunamon will also be wearing all sorts of belts she's aiming for, and we'll definitely, definitely go to Tropical-chan Arena... ... Please, please make a retort..."
Anno: "So everyone, that was Anno Saori, from Shiga Prefecture!"
Anno: "I'm happy that I was able to win in Shiga, but I'm especially happy that winning the final preliminary match has given me confidence, and that I can see that I can win again."
Natsupoi: "Is this your first time doing a main event in Shiga? Right?"
Anno: "Actually, this is my first time."
Natsupoi: "Congratulations"
Anno: "Thank you. But Maibara is a little far from my hometown. But when we do it again in Otsu City sometime in the future, I love Shiga. I'm glad I was able to team up with you two in Shiga today, Ikari-chan?"
Natsupoi: "Well, I've always said I wanted to do it."
Anno: "It's Ukaru-chan, not Ikari."
Mizumori: "Tropical-chan. Tropical-chan..."
Anno: "A week from today, we probably won't be wearing belts. We'll already be in our belt outfits. Let's tour various regions in our belt outfits and show everyone what we look like."
Let's go, Natsupoi
Mizumori: "Excuse me for a moment. In this Goddess battle between the two of you, the winner will become the regular army, right? So I believe that the two of you will win. And then, SAKI and I will be the next to challenge for the Goddess title. It's Tropica Wild."
Anno: "That's what he said."
Natsupoi: "I think we've had a very deep bond since our 10th anniversary on May 31st, and even before that, so I'm really happy to think that this might have been theきっかけ (trigger/opportunity) for her to do this."
Mizumori: "We're connected. Through the two of them. So, I'll do my best to connect you too, so please."
Anno: "I have to keep that promise."
Natsupoi: "It's not just us who feel this way."
Anno: "It's not about feelings. Well then, shall we go?"
Natsupoi: "Lake Biwa, bye-poi!"
