PAGEOT, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR<\/h3>\n<p>Our first match was a three-way tag. The twins Hina &amp; Rina believed they could win if they used their brains. Ruaka said she\u2019s not used to three-way matches but jungle jungle! Kashima made fun of them wrestling three kids and an old lady (Yoneyama). Gracia said she and Kashima were united in their love of the color pink.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) STARS (Artist Of Stardom Champion Saki Kashima &amp; Alex Gracia) vs. JAN (Kaori Yoneyama &amp; Ruaka) vs. STARS (Hina &amp; Rina)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rina kept convincing Kashima to team up against Ruaka before immediately trying to roll-up Kashima for the win. In the end things broke down and Kashima made Rina tap to a kimura.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Kashima &amp; Gracia in 6:24.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Fun one with a bunch of comedy moments and the champion picking up a win over the young rookies who never win.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Iida, who debuted at the last show and joined JAN, was teaming with them for the first time. She has her own catchphrase already like the rest of JAN and she\u2019s being called \u201cthe little giant.\u201d Kyona and Tora will be challenging for the Goddess Of Stardom tag titles soon so this is a warm-up for them. Watanabe said she wants to pin one of them to gain momentum going into that match.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) QUEEN\u2019S QUEST (Wonder Of Stardom Champion &amp; Goddess Of Stardom Champion Momo Watanabe, AZM, &amp; Konami) vs. JAN (Jungle Kyona, Natsuko Tora, &amp; Saya Iida)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Iida took a lot of punishment and in the end fell to a top rope double knees from AZM.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-53077603\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>WINNERS: Queen\u2019s Quest in 11:55.<\/p>\n<p>-Utami Hayashishita joined Watanabe in the ring with their tag titles. Watanabe said JAN lost because they let a rookie fight their battles for them. Hayashishita\u2019s picked up most of the recent victories for their tag but Watanabe\u2019s going to pick up the next one and she doesn\u2019t care who she pins. Tora said she and Kyona are no rookies and called QQ vain.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Iida did a lot of selling but also hit some very nice dropkicks. With just two matches under her belt she\u2019s already looking more impressive than some of the other kids in the promotion. I want to see a singles match between her and AZM now.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Kimura and her blonde British friends cut a giggly promo about how their opponents were going to die. Kid said Iwatani, Tam, and Kashima will be defending their trios titles soon (against Kimura\u2019s team?). Producer P was absent. Nakano said he went into hiding after the <em>8th Anniversary Show<\/em> and she\u2019s not where he is. If you\u2019ve seen him, please let her know.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) STARS (Artist Of Stardom Champion Mayu Iwatani, Artist Of Stardom Champion Tam Nakano, &amp; Starlight Kid) vs. HANA KIMURA, SADIE GIBBS, &amp; BOBBI TYLER<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kimura\u2019s team were soundly booed by the fans, which is somewhat unusual. Gibbs hit her backflip splash over the top rope onto everyone at ringside and followed with a top rope frog-splash on Kid for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Gibbs, Kimura, &amp; Tyler in 10:54.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: A good one but just a lot of action and no real story. As per usual the youngest person in the match took the pin. Since \u201cgraduating\u201d from the rookie division Kid hasn\u2019t had much success but she\u2019s hanging in there with some of the top names in the promotion so she\u2019ll find her footing again in time.)<\/em><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1560767492\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>-Hanan said this was her second time challenging for the Future Of Stardom title and she was \u201cdefinitely\u201d going to win it this time. Hayashishita said this is her first defense of the title. Hanan is one of the judo sisters but she\u2019s also a judoka and she\u2019ll prove her superiority.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) UTAMI HAYASHISHITA vs. HANAN \u2013 FUTURE OF STARDOM CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hanan got a couple near-falls off of roll-ups but Hayashishita choked her out with a rear naked choke and then put her in the torture rack until she tapped.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Utami Hayashishita in 6:25 to retain the Future Of Stardom title.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Hayashishita already feels like she\u2019s outgrown the Future Of Stardom title and the rookie designation even though this was only her first defense. She comes across as fully-formed as anyone else in the division. We just saw her beat Viper clean so how am I supposed to believe that Hanan or Iida or Ruaka have a chance against her?)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Our main event was a preview for the Kagetsu-Hazuki match happening for the red belt at the next show. Hazuki said she wanted to pin Kagetsu here to prove how much she\u2019s grown. Sumire had Stardom owner Rossy Ogawa\u2019s new autobiography and plugged it. Hayter had tissue stuck in her nose and claimed to be sick. Kagetsu said it looked like she\u2019d have to carry her team. All four women entered together along with their manager Nao Yamaguchi. They did their traditional dance before going to the opposing corners. Yamaguchi took Kagetsu\u2019s corner.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) OEDO TAI (World Of Stardom Champion Kagetsu &amp; Jamie Hayter) vs. OEDO TAI (High Speed Champion Hazuki &amp; Natsu Sumire)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kagestu and Hazuki started and went back and forth. Sumire and Hayter tagged in. Sumire pretended to play nice since they\u2019re all stable mates but looked for a cheap shot. Hayter saw it coming and the two teams brawled to ringside. Kagetsu dragged Hazuki into the crowd and choked her with a chair. Kagetsu and Hayter worked over Sumire for a long stretch with the help of Yamaguchi. Eventually Sumire had enough and grabbed Ogawa\u2019s book, bashing both her opponents with it. Tag to Hazuki. Hazuki and Kagetsu went at each other with some hard offense. Hayter took out Kagetsu with a big boot by accident and Hazuki and Sumire dumped her with an assisted codebreaker. Kagetsu hit a firefighter\u2019s carry into a falcon arrow and went up top for her 450. Hazuki moved, though, and rolled her up to gain a pinfall over the champion.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Hazuki &amp; Sumire in 15:49.<\/p>\n<p>-Hazuki asked Kagestu if she was having second thoughts about offering her a title match. Kagetsu claimed that she lost on purpose but Hazuki called her out on it. Kagetsu had a request for the crowd. During their main event match at the next show, don\u2019t take any pictures. Watch the match with your eyes and enjoy professional wrestling.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Very fun match with the villainous stablemates trying to go to their usual bag of tricks but having opponents who knew exactly what they were planning to do before they could do it. It\u2019s quite rare for any champion to lose in Stardom, let alone the World Of Stardom Champion, so Hazuki\u2019s pinfall here was pretty surprising. Is Kagetsu playing with fire, though, by voluntarily putting Oedo Tai in situations where they fight each other?)<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Find Harley on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/talkinghonor\">@talkinghonor<\/a> and listen to he and Emily Fear talk all things Ring Of Honor every Wednesday on the PWTorch Dailycast \u201cTalking Honor.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2401595882\"><div id=\"pwtor-3978260793\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>STARDOM NEW YEARS STARS JANUARY 19, 2019 TOKYO, JAPAN AT SHIN-KIBA 1ST RING AIRED ON STARDOM WORLD REPORT BY HARLEY R.
