Thoughts: I didn't like Anne no selling germans her in what was a pre-show match. That is not something you do this low on the card. It was average and just didn't get super exciting. This had a lot of armdrags and crabs.

Main show:

Koguma & Maika vs. God's Eye (Kiyoka Kotatsu & Ranna Yagami) vs. Mi Vida Loca (Akira Kurogane & Itsuki Aoki)

Kog top rope splashes Maika and Aoki at the same time for 2. Akira superkicks Ran and Ran high kicks her. Ran then pins her. 

Thoughts: It was a not so serious opener here with Kog doing her chants and other wrestlers joining in. There were a lot of people coming in for a spot, then getting out so the next person could do in to do their spot and that hurt the flow a bit. This wasn't anything much of note and was basically a throwaway bout.

Ran kicks Akira in the face after while she's down.

Artist Of Stardom Title Match - God's Eye (Ami Sourei, Hina & Lady C) (c) vs. Kikyo Furusawa, Maki Ito & Rian

Thoughts: It was mainly all about Rian being the underdog here and trying to pick up the win. She ended up losing and no sold more than she should have here. It was alright though as it had a story and it made you want to see Rian pull the win off.

The Stardom president talks. Thekla pops up behind him with hair clippers and tries to cut his hair. Thek then talks on the mic. She says she told him she will find him and make his life a living hell. She hits him with the mic and brings him into the ring. Thek says the president fired her and now she's the AEW champ.

The heels take control and shoulder the faces over. Poi takes corner attacks, a suplex and 3 sentons for 2. Death cradles Poi for 2. Anou fisherman suplexes Death. Poi top rope cartwheel splashes Death for 2. Poi rolls up death and pins her.

Thoughts: It was pretty simple with the heels being heels and the face being a bit faster and flashier. It worked fine enough but we only saw a little of everyone due to the amount of people involved and the time restrictions.

Hana does a head and arm hold and spinning drops her with it. Hana then keeps the hold on. Xena avoids doi fives and Hana rolls her up for 2. Xena then rolls her up and pins her with a bridge.

Thoughts: It was a basic heavyweight match for the most part. It was unoffensive and acceptable, but totally forgettable. They didn't really pick up the pace as much as they could have in the 2nd half of this and didn't make it anything special.

Xena says she's been living in Japan for 3 years and it's time for her to leave Japan. She says her last match will be on July 8th.

Thoughts: It got a lot of time. It was alright. We didn't see a ton of Miyu or BP in this one as AZM vs Konami and Saya vs Utami were the main focuses. It was nice to them to let Utami win instead of being petty and making her lose.

Thoughts: .I was surprised to see Saya lose as she should have held the belt a bit longer to see where she goes with it. Suzu hasn't won this title before, but she's been pushed near the top for a while and didn't exactly need it. They did too much here with Saya surviving apron piledrivers and top rope germans I thought they had the right idea with Saya doing all the selling and being the underdog though. Saya has to work on expanding her offense as the spear spamming gets old.

Suzu talks on the mic after. 

Overall thoughts: It was a longer card as big Stardom PPV's usually are. Yuna/Matoi wasn't bad but I didn't care for the other two pre-show matches. The three-way tag wasn't serious. I liked the Artist of Stardom Tag Title match as the match revolved around Rian as the underdog face. Cosmic Angels vs HATE was simple and was okay enough. Xena/Hanako was a very basic heavyweight match but they didn't botch and it was unoffensive. Neon Genesis vs HATE was okay as was Syuri/Rina, who had a strike heavy match. Hana/Iida was an even match with them doing okay and them having the right idea stylistically. I didn't love Saya losing to Suzu in the main but the match was acceptable. I'd give this a 6 out of 10. They had a lot of okay matches but nothing truly great. It was an okay show.
