We, the regular army, will definitely take you all down. We'll change this rotten Stardom ring. Let the regular army's counterattack begin, you bastards!"
The two began a brawl. Iida took Konami's spray and sprayed it. Iida's own face turned completely white as well.
Iida: "No matter how many times I get hit by your spray like that, I won't lose to you anymore!"
Anna: "We won't stop fighting back. On December 29th, we're going to turn everything upside down."
Iida: "If you understand, then go home!"
Konami: "Why are you white too?"
Iida: "Yes, today it's the regular army, not us, but Kozuen who won the preliminary match. We have a big match in Osaka next February, and at that time we will be wearing the belts and providing a bright stardom. I'm completely white at the right time, so I thought I'd end it with this celebration. Believe in me and shine in the future, take care!"
Comments from Iida & Anna
Iida: "Konami, your face suits you. But it suits you better. That's because the white belt suits me better. So this white suits me better too. Today I joined forces with Anna Saori and won the preliminary match. I know this is no time to be happy. From here on out,"
Anna comes in.
Anna: "Thank you, Iida. It's really encouraging to join forces with you Iida. The fact that we share the same feelings gives us great strength, and it's not just us. So does Sakura, Akari, and all the other baby girls. We all have the same goal, and we're fighting and standing in the ring, wanting to change Stardom. Let's do it."
Iida: "Let's do it."
Anna: "Iida has the Wonder belt. I'll have the World belt."
The two shake hands.
