God's Eye, consisting of Ami Souri, Hina, Lady C, and Tomoka Inaba, faced off against H.A.T.E., consisting of Konami, Rina, Azusa Inaba, and Fukigen★ in an eight-person tag team match. With the Artist of Stardom Championship match taking place at Korakuen Hall the following day, this was a warm-up match between champion Konami, Rina, and Fukigen and challengers Hina, Lady, and Tomoka.
Tomoka and Rina started the match, trading elbows. As Tomoka landed a flurry of punches, Rina spat. Tomoka followed with a middle kick and a soccer ball kick, shouting, "Don't mess with me!". Lady drove Rina into the corner, and God's Eye launched a series of thrust attacks. Rina retaliated with a drop kick to Lady, sending her out of the ring for an outside fight. Lady was brought back, and Konami hit a soccer ball kick. Lady followed with a big boot and a neckbreaker. Hina delivers a dropkick to Konami. Hina then applies a hip throw to Fukigen and Azusa. Rina resists the hip throw, but Souri hits a shoulder tackle. Hina bodyslams Konami. H.A.T.E. attacks Hina one after another, with Konami hitting a sliding kick and a fisherman. Rina and Fukigen lift Hina up. Hina cuts in and hits a deadly drive on Konami in the corner, and God's Eye works together to attack Konami, slamming her to the mat. Konami charges, but Konami hits a high kick and a German suplex. Hina dodges Fukigen's senton and hits a neckbreaker. Fukigen thumbs Tomoka. Tomoka halts her thrust attack and hits a double kick. Fukigen dodges a charge, and H.A.T.E. hits a thrust, and Fukigen hits a senton. Fukigen goes for a brainbuster, but Tomoka hits him with a straight punch. Fukigen rolls up Tomoka, but is cut off. H.A.T.E. work together to break up the God's Eye, and Fukigen attempts a plancha to the outside of the ring, but is dodged and they end up fighting each other. Tomoka slams Fukigen into the mat, but is reversed. Tomoka counters, and Lady and Hina combine to win with Tomoka's Inaba Otoshi.
Tomoka: "Hey, champion, don't mess with me! You saw it today, right? It's not just Hina who's fighting. Lady, God's Eye, and I are all fighting together. Get ready for tomorrow."
Hina: "Today, God's Eye won the first and last preliminary match. We won today, so you can go home now. Go home already, you bastards! We've declared our challenge, and tomorrow is the main event. We're determined to win. Also, as I said at the start of the new year, 2026 is going to be God's Eye's year. I'm sure you're tired of H.A.T.E. winning in the main event and H.A.T.E. closing the show. From now on, it's God's Eye's era. Tomorrow, in the main event here at Korakuen, we'll definitely have the belts around Tomoka, Lady, and me, so please look forward to it. Thank you."
