IWGP Women's & STRONG Women's Championship Match Signing Ceremony
Before the match, a signing ceremony was held for the double championship match between Shuri (IWGP Women's Champion) and Saya Kamitani (STRONG Women's Champion) to take place at New Japan Pro-Wrestling's January 4th Tokyo Dome event. Both wrestlers signed their respective agreements and expressed their enthusiasm for the title match
Kamiya: "I'm Saya Kamiya from H.A.T.E. It's amazing that I'll finally get to see a packed Tokyo Dome tomorrow! Last year was a crazy year, starting with a massive bloodbath at wave on New Year's Day and ending with me being sent to the hospital at Ryogoku at the end of the year. I can't wait to see what kind of year this will be, starting with a packed Tokyo Dome. Tomorrow, Saya-sama will become the triple champion and in 2026 I'll show my servants the biggest nightmare in history."
Shuri: "Happy New Year, everyone. I'm Shuri, the 6th IWGP Women's Champion, a woman with something different that can compete on a global level. The January 4th Tokyo Dome show is finally tomorrow. I myself am ready. All that's left is to perform in the ring, so please burn it into your memories. I will start 2026 as a double champion. Please look forward to it."
Olympia, Kogo Momo, and Furusawa Kian face off in a three-way match. What will happen when Furusawa's tricky submission holds are added to Olympia and Kogo's lucha libre style?
They get into a four-point stance, and Olympia puts both of them in a headlock. The two throw each other into the ropes, and after dodging, they deliver a double dropkick. They pretend to high-five, but Furusawa attacks Kogo. Kogo survives and lands a series of corner dropkicks, followed by the Momo Shibori 100%. Olympia breaks up the hold, lifts Furusawa up, and performs a squat and a cartwheel press. Furusawa lands a series of dropkicks, including one to the knee, and goes for the cover, but it's only a two count. Furusawa applies an ankle lock. Kogo tries to break it up, but Furusawa applies an ankle lock to both of them. Kogo escapes and lands a dropkick on Furusawa, then pulls Olympia up, but her body attack is caught. Still, Kogo lands a hurricanrana followed by a 619. Kogo announced his move and got into position for a suplex. Olympia countered with a brainbuster. Kogo kicked out and rolled up Olympia. Furusawa tried to pin them both but they kicked out. The roll-up exchange continued with all three of them, and Furusawa hit Kogo with a jackknife. Kogo hit Olympia with a thrust kick and attempted a modified back drop on Furusawa. Furusawa countered with an ankle lock. Kogo escaped, and Olympia blocked Furusawa's charge, and Olimpico delivered a modified Bronco Buster in an "I'll be back" style. From there, he slammed Furusawa to the mat with a modified facebuster for the three count.
