Show Notes

  • Backstage, Sareee took a stab at the calibre of opponent she was being given after defeating Yuria Hime in singles action.
  • Following their victory over Mi Vida Loca, Maika apologised to HANAKO and shook her hand, promising to make up for her shortcomings as a leader. This comes after Rian confronted her stablemates backstage at the previous show and slapped them all – demanding they pull themselves together.
  • In the aftermath of the main-event, BMI2000 officially accepted the challenge of Hanan and Bea Priestely for their Goddesses of Stardom Championships, with the match due to take place at Supreme Fight on February 7th. The same happened between Ami Sourei and Konami for the Wonder of Stardom Championship.
  • Meanwhile, Rina called out Fuwa-chan for a match at Supreme Fight in Osaka, rationalising her challenge backstage by stating that she can’t stand how Fuwa-chan is ‘half-assing’ her run as a wrestler and appears to choose what shows she does.
  • Following the show, Stardom ran their annual end of year awards show for 2025, with the winners being as follows;
    • MVP Award: Saya Kamitani
    • Best Bout Award: Saya Kamitani vs. Tam Nakano (All-Star Grand Queendom 2025)
    • Best Unit Award: H.A.T.E
