PAGEOT, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR<\/h3>\n<p>We opened with Starlight Kid, Saya Kamitani, and Itsuki Hoshino performing \u201cThe Future Of Stardom\u201d from the new Stardom album.<\/p>\n<p>-Onozaki said it would be a difficult match but she hoped to win with her Leo Clutch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) ANDRAS MIYAGI vs. LEO ONOZAKI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Onozaki looked for a cheap shot dropkick to Miyagi\u2019s back as she was making her entrance but Miyagi sidestepped and smacked her to the mat, locking on a crossface. Onozaki got a bulldog and few roll-ups in but Miyagi made her tap to the crossface.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Andras Miyagi in 2:11.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: The strange booking of Miyagi continues. This was the dominant squash she needed ahead of her showdown with Kagetsu but Onozaki heelishly jumping her from behind further makes it seem like the demon from hell is a babyface now?)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Hoshino said she was a little scared but she\u2019d try her best not to lose. Tora wondered if the rookie could handle\u2026 this. She went face to face with the camera and stared us down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) NATSUKO TORA vs. ITSUKI HOSHINO<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-209672038\" 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>Tora finished her off with a top rope frog-splash.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Natsuko Tora in 7:26.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Like Kyona in Hoshino\u2019s debut match Tora is the perfect opponent for the rookies to face off against and learn from. Maybe a match with Death Yama-San is on her horizon next.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Kamitani lost to Konami in singles action last time so this time she wanted to crush her with a shooting star press. Konami and Lucas were wearing the new TCS baseball caps. Konami said they\u2019re not a cute team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) 3838 TAG (Saya Iida &amp; Saya Kamitani) vs. TOKYO CYBER SQUAD (Goddess Of Stardom Champion Konami &amp; Zoe Lucas)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Konami finished off Kamitani with a kick to the side of the head.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Tokyo Cyber Squad in 8:44.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Just a match.)<\/em><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1077315427\" 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>-Hayter was feeling rough after going drinking with The Drunk Queens. Martina said they\u2019re now called The Donnies(?). We cut to footage from earlier in the day in the locker room. Kimura approached Death and Death bit her(?) or gave her an Indian burn(?). On the promo set Kimura said her arm still hurt. She had a needle and said the vaccine would help her against Death.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) TOKYO CYBER SQUAD (Goddess Of Stardom Champion Jungle Kyona, Hana Kimura, &amp; Death Yama-San) vs. OEDO TAI (Natsu Sumire, Jamie Hayter, &amp; Session Moth Martina)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Martina\u2019s partners made her start against Kyona but she cowered in fear. They managed to string her up in the ropes, though, and hit a three-way spit take, dousing Kyona in beer. They then hit a three-way crotch assault. Kimura broke up the festivities. Death rolled up Martina for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Tokyo Cyber Squad in 7:11.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: I have no idea what was going on in those pre-match promos. Is a Donny some sort of British term? The camera shook so much during the TCS bit that it wasn\u2019t clear what Death did to Kimura. Is Death becoming a sort of feral animal now? She was her usual self during their promo and match as was Kimura.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-QQ did a round-robin style promo saying one word at a time. Kid said that Riho is Stars but Riho thanked them for letting her team with them. (Ambiguous.) Kid said they wanted QQ\u2019s trios titles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) QUEEN\u2019S QUEST (Bea Priestley &amp; Artist Of Stardom Champions Momo Watanabe, AZM, &amp; SWA World Champion &amp; Future Of Stardom Champion Utami Hayashishita) vs. STARS (High Speed Champion &amp; AEW Women\u2019s Champion Riho, Tam Nakano, Saki Kashima, &amp; Starlight Kid)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course AZM and Kid started. In the end QQ looked for a four-way dropkick on Kid but she avoided it. AZM took a three-way kick instead and a code red from Kid for the pin.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Stars in 10:40.<\/p>\n<p>-Kid took a mic and asked Kashima and Nakano if they wanted to go after the trios titles. She just beat AZM so that earns them the right. Also, Riho, in the tag league we went to a draw with Konami &amp; Kyona so they owe us a title match too.<\/p>\n<p>Kyona interrupted with Konami at her side. She said she had been waiting for them. Their team\u2019s only good because of Riho, right? Kid slapped her. Kyona grabbed her by the mask until the others separated them. Konami asked if they want to come for the tag titles. They want it too. She agreed. She looked forward to seeing Kid pass out in Kyona\u2019s swinging sleeperhold again. She asked Kyona to entertain her. They left.<\/p>\n<p>Kid vowed to win both tag titles by the end of the year and told Riho she wanted her high speed title too.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Teens these days. No patience. They just want everything right now. I never thought I\u2019d say this but I\u2019m actually really enjoying Kyona with a heel edge to her. It\u2019s just a dash of \u201cbeing a dick\u201d mixed into the confidence of a champion, enough to play on the doubts of a younger competitor like Kid. Also, like a Kevin Owens-type, what she says is technically the truth.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Hazuki &amp; Kagetsu were backstage for their final match as a duo. Hazuki had her old school eye makeup on. She said it was the first time in a year. She asked why Kagetsu was wearing sunglasses. She took them off to expose that Kagetsu was only wearing a bit of makeup around the immediate eye area instead of the full moon like Hazuki. She asked if Kagetsu was motivated. Iwatani said it might be their last match but they\u2019re the red and white belt champions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(6) STARS (World Of Stardom Champion Mayu Iwatani &amp; Wonder Of Stardom Champion Arisa Hoshiki) vs. OEDO TAI: TEAM MOON (Kagetsu &amp; Hazuki)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Iwatani pinned Hazuki with a top rope moonsault.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Stars in 15:19.<\/p>\n<p>-Hoshiki offered a handshake to Hazuki. They shook and hugged. Iwatani said she was able to bring the red belt back to Osaka but she was so tired and everything hurt. Hoshiki said it was her last time fighting Hazuki. There were a lot of heavy feelings but she wasn\u2019t crying yet. It was a good thing, though, because Hazuki made her own decision.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Dave Meltzer reported that people within Stardom have said Hazuki\u2019s decision to retire at age 22 is due to her desire to move on and live a normal life. Wrestling at Madison Square Garden this April (in the <\/em>G1 Supercard<em> dark match) was apparently the high point for her and enough to satisfy her. Bizarre, considering it was such a poorly-treated match. I would have thought winning the red belt would be more of a bucket list item. To each their own, I suppose.)<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3710559540\"><div id=\"pwtor-669397649\"><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 GODDESS OF STARS DECEMBER 1, 2019 OSAKA, JAPAN AT OSAKA WORLD PAVILION AIRED ON STARDOM WORLD REPORT BY HARLEY R.
