Cosmic Angels' team of Natsupoi, Mizumori Yuna, Sakura Aya, and Kurei Sayaka faced off against H.A.T.E.'s team of Kamitani Saya, Watanabe Momo, Konami, and Rina in an all-out 8-woman tag team match. At the June 25th Osaka event, Natsupoi hinted at challenging Kamitani for the World of Stardom Championship, declaring her intention to become Stardom's ace. The tactics between the two teams were something to watch.
Natsupoi took the lead over her partner and declared herself the first to enter the ring. Kamitani came out for H.A.T.E. and the match began. After some feeling each other out, Kamitani retreated, creating distance before delivering a kick. The match became a rope battle, and Natsupoi attempted an arm whip, but Kamitani got back up.

In the chaotic ring, Momo attacks with a bat. Momo and Rina teamed up, but Mizumori hit them both with a lariat. Natsupoi delivered a series of back kicks, but Kamiya kicked them out. Kamiya hit a spin kick, and Natsupoi retaliated. Kamiya held out the referee, Konami performed a cross play, and Kamiya hit a double kick and went for the cover, but deliberately pulled her up at the two count. Then she hit a Star Crusher, and Natsupoi was pinned for the three count.
Kamiya: "Hey, you want to do it (for the red belt), right? I'll do it. Exactly one year ago, in Hokkaido (Sapporo), where Saya-sama was born. No matter how many times we do it, the result will be the same as today. I'll show you the overwhelming difference between you and Saya-sama."
Natsupoi: "Hokkaido? In that place where you guys ran away from reality, I will definitely take this belt, the symbol of Stardom. You damn bastards who couldn't live an honest life!"
Kamiya attacked, and both teams brawled.
Kamiya: "HATE has taken all the belts, and we will continue to show Kochi Prefecture the greatest nightmare in history. Kneel, my servants, and goodbye forever."
"I've decided to defend my title against Natsupoi on July 21st in Hokkaido (Sapporo). How are you feeling? Of course I'm excited! I mean, everyone's crazy about Saya-sama. If you don't want that, Natsupoi, try and stop Saya-sama with your own power. I'll make you understand the reality of the difference between us in Hokkaido."
Natsupoi: "Kamitani, I have no idea what you want to do. Aren't you confused? You've lost sight of yourself. In the world of professional wrestling and in the world of showbiz, there are waves. I think riding that wave, and luck, is also a form of skill. Kamitani is riding that wave right now. That's amazing. But if she herself was wavering, she wouldn't last. It would be tough. I'm not scared of anything, even if there's no public push, even if people point fingers at me and say I can't do it. I have a strong core that makes me who I am, so I'm not scared of anything! I'll definitely take that red belt, the symbol of stardom, back from the place you ran away from. Bring it on."
