Momo was presented with a cape, a crown, and a championship trophy. The crowd chanted Momo's name
Momo: "What's with this cape! Watanabe Momo is the champion! My ninth time? After nine appearances, I've finally won. To all you damn fans who've been supporting me, Watanabe Momo, I've kept you waiting for a long time. You know, my mind is already... winning is so tough. Ah. Well, I'm not in a hurry to challenge for any belts right now, so I won't say anything. But Stardom, and Japan, and America, Mexico, whatever. To all the belt holders around the world, Watanabe Momo is coming, so be prepared. Anyway, listen carefully. From now on, it's the era of Watanabe Momo. You damn fans, look forward to it!"
"Hey, did you see that, hey, this is Watanabe Momo! I'm not crying. I'm not crying, absolutely not. I can't cry in a place like this. I still have so much to do. But for now, I'm just going to savor this victory (voice trembling). I don't know how many times this will happen, so I might as well wear this damn crown. Ha, but I thought I was going to pass out, but surely I was the only one who had to win. (Putting the crown back on) It's totally lame. Don't make me wear a crappy crown like that! Hey, next year, prepare something more luxurious that suits me. A belt to challenge for? You'll just have to wait and see, you bastards."
"Finally, finally, I've made it to the finals for the seventh year in a row, and I've been winning awards all this time, but I just couldn't win, and finally, finally I made it to the finals, but I lost (tears). I feel like I'm going to start hating myself. Throughout this 5★STAR, I've hated myself the most, but I gradually gained confidence and wanted to start loving myself, but I lost (tears). It's frustrating, it's frustrating, but it's frustrating that I think I was happy to meet Watanabe Momo in the finals. I've decided that the next time I cry, it'll be when I win. It's AZM who will defeat Watanabe Momo, and it's AZM who will carry Stardom on her shoulders. It doesn't end here. I want to love myself more and more, I want to... No, I'm a genius, so from here I'll reach the top again at high speed, you idiots!"
