00:00The second round of applause for the first time-loss win.
00:03The Sourney Yami vs Starlight Kid.
00:20The Sourney Yami vs Starlight Kid.
00:37Well, wrestling fans, the way that we started the action is the way that we returned.
00:41Welcome back to the World Wonder Ring Stardom.
00:43My name is Walker Stewart, and we are set for your top four matches of the evening right
00:49here tonight in Coral Quinn Hall.
00:51It is the quarterfinal round beginning now for the five-star Grand Prix in 2026.
00:57Starlight Kid looking for a landmark victory.
01:00150-50km, Yodora-ri-odoru, Skycarina, Starlight Kid!
01:10Starlight Kid walked into the evening at the Blue Stars B third seed position
01:15and managed to defeat Hanako in the opening match of the night
01:18to face a rematch against the woman who stopped her own undefeated streak back in Hamamatsu.
01:24the cupred
01:33This is Shor-Lei Amise Shino-Ni-Do-Netsu!
02:01And while Starlight Kid was on a four-match winning streak,
02:05Amisore is on a four-match winning streak ever since August 2nd.
02:10A streak that has taken her all the way to the top of Blue Stars Block B.
02:16A buy-in to the quarterfinals means the first fight of the night for Amisore.
02:33Amisore has made her intentions perfectly clear heading into the final round of the five-star Grand Prix tournament.
02:41And Sade is looking to put an early close in.
02:43Referee Barb Sasaki at the sound of the bell.
02:45And it is no time for the air tonight as Sade already looking to drive out Starlight Kid.
02:52Good God.
02:56Already at the start of this fight, Amisore has long-darted Starlight Kid to the outside.
03:01And we are off to the races.
03:08Amisore and Starlight Kid have fought before in singles competition
03:12and have already fought this year in the five-star Grand Prix tournament.
03:16Just 48 hours ago, wrestling fans, where Amisore defeated Starlight Kid.
03:22Edited Starlight Kid's undefeated reign.
03:23And forced Starlight Kid into a play-in position.
03:27Kid has managed to defeat Hanako over on the night.
03:30A brutal war against a powerhouse leads to a second powerful fight
03:35from one of the larger fighters on the Stardom roster as well, Amisore.
03:40Managed to defeat Starlight Kid and Hamamatsu.
03:42Looking to repeat the result here in court win.
03:46And, oh, just as we say it, that power offense really coming to the aid of Amisore here tonight.
03:52And you know that Starlight Kid is going to be watching out for that fire thunder driver
03:58that Amisore managed to land like a thunderbolt.
04:01Back on Starlight Kid and Hamamatsu.
04:04Watch Sore now.
04:05Oh, God, could be looking for it here and now on the shoulders
04:08as Kid is in a dangerous, dangerous position.
04:12Whoa!
04:13And Sore has that Argentine position for the backbreaker
04:17on such a small athlete like Starlight Kid.
04:20This is a lot of leverage.
04:22Amisore is going to fight with here tonight.
04:25And Starlight Kid hung up on the top rope.
04:29Watch it.
04:30Oh!
04:31Crushed in between the steel and the hard body of Sore.
04:37That is a bad, bad landing for Starlight Kid as Sore seeking the cover.
04:42Hook of the outer leg for a count of two.
04:46Ever since the date of August 2nd, ever since the start of the new month,
04:50Amisore has been on a winning streak.
04:52Defeated Hanai, Kikyo Furusawa, Saya Kamitani, and Starlight Kid.
04:57Three out of four of those being huge, and some might say unexpected wins
05:01in the course of this five-star Grand Prix tournament.
05:04As Amisore has that single-like grab locked in, you know that Starlight Kid,
05:08a woman who loves to target the legs herself, managed to target the legs of Hanako,
05:13and went out with the Black Tiger Leg Killer just earlier on in our opening matchup.
05:17And Starlight Kid is going to fight like hell to the bottom rope.
05:22And that's going to force the save for Kittle.
05:29It is one of those victories that we've been talking about throughout this evening,
05:33and that's the win over Starlight Kid.
05:34But there's a second victory that I believe is heavily on the mind of Amisore as well.
05:38And that's the win over the Wonder of Stardom champion,
05:40a woman who was just eliminated from the five-star Grand Prix tournament, Hanak.
05:46Amisore has fought Hanak before in multiple encounters,
05:49and you know who would have been looking forward to stepping into the ring,
05:53potentially in a semifinal or final position with the woman.
05:56But Sode has already called her shot, said that she will win the five-star Grand Prix,
06:04and she will count.
06:06Oh, hold on a minute.
06:08Let's put a pin in that pop.
06:10But Starlight Kid turned it right there, and an area coat shot for Kittle.
06:14Watch Starlight Kid now.
06:16And a crossbody taking down Sode.
06:21Covering a count at two as the action heats up right here in Corwin Hall.
06:27As I was saying earlier, fans, Amisore has said she will win the five-star Grand Prix tournament.
06:31She will challenge for the Wonder of Stardom championship.
06:34She will face off against Hanak.
06:36That is the dream of Sode by the end of this five-star Grand Prix.
06:41And Sode is going to have to fight like hell to get to that position.
06:44But Starlight Kid going to have to fight in a very different regard here.
06:47Oh, would have loved that Kitschamen magic suplex.
06:53And, oh, talk about matching up.
06:57Starlight Kid is certainly a striker, whatever the moment calls for it.
07:02Amisore is going to have to prove her resilience, withstand it all here tonight.
07:07As Kid off the ropes again.
07:08Middle rope.
07:09Whoa!
07:10And Amisore just topples Starlight Kid to the outside.
07:15Just thrown away like yesterday's news.
07:17That's what Amisore thinks about Kid all here tonight.
07:21As watch Starlight able to block that shot there.
07:23Powerful offense turned around right now.
07:26Starlight spikes in Amisore.
07:35Wrestling fans, we have no time limit here tonight.
07:38It took 11 minutes, 36 seconds, just two days ago for Amisore to defeat Starlight Kid.
07:44Back at Hamamatsu.
07:45Let's see if Sode can beat the record here.
07:47Or surpass it.
07:48Or the win.
07:49Here's the suplex down for Sode on Kid.
07:57Five minutes have passed already.
07:58We have no time limit on the evening.
08:00No opportunity for a draw will advance either one of these women.
08:04If we go to a double down, if we go to a double count out,
08:08both women are effectively eliminated from the five-star Grand Prix tournament.
08:15The only path through to the semifinal is a win here tonight as the quarters roll on.
08:23As I think that Starlight Kid looking for the Black Tiger Tombstone.
08:27Sode, Sode in Fire Thunder position.
08:29Looking to land like a lightning bolt and it's dead.
08:32No, no, no.
08:34Ropes again.
08:35Starlight Kid misdirected.
08:38Amisore slam.
08:47Sode is in beat condition here tonight.
08:49Starlight Kid has already wrestled one fight on the evening as a Blue Thunder Bomb.
08:54No, no, no.
08:55Can't for the cover.
08:56And a two count there for Starlight.
09:00Both women, big separation, big distance created.
09:04Sode wants to close it.
09:06That happened easy though.
09:07Look at the climb.
09:08Starlight's ladder driving down with the Acai DDT.
09:25Starlight Kid's momentum might have been stopped for the moment by Amisore and Hamamatsu.
09:30It was not halted completely.
09:32All right, Kid, look at that pink shirt.
09:34That Black Tiger tombstone, if you will.
09:38And Sode, hold on a minute.
09:40On the shoulders one more time like a Thunderbolt tonight.
09:43And one more time.
09:45No, no, no.
09:47Sode flattens.
09:47Sode flattens Starlight.
09:49Two.
09:58One more time here.
10:02Black Tiger tombstone.
10:08No.
10:11BTT is not going to be enough to put down Amisore on the evening.
10:26Look at this.
10:28The result of Amisore is something deep.
10:31And Starlight Kid is treading into deep water here tonight.
10:37This is dangerous.
10:38This is dangerous indeed what we're seeing here.
10:41Sode and Starlight Kid finally get out on the top rope here.
10:45This is a bad, bad position for either woman.
10:49Ball to fight into the semi-final to open up the card.
10:53And Ryugoku Kokugi Kade.
10:55A historic night that will come on August 23rd.
10:59Both of these women want to write their name into that history.
11:04Oh, listen to that shot.
11:16Starlight Kid just talking a little smack in the ear about Amisore.
11:19And Sode trying to keep her balanced.
11:21Starlight Kid will fail on that attack.
11:28Watch it, watch it.
11:29Starlight Kid though.
11:30Hold on a minute.
11:30Oh, got the hook in on that arm drag.
11:34But Amisore based on that top rope.
11:39No, you've got to be kidding me.
11:41You've got to be kidding me.
11:46Amisore for the win tonight.
11:50No.
12:00This is the furthest Amisore has ever gotten into a five-star tournament.
12:05A first-time quarter-final run.
12:07We are on untreaded waters tonight for this athlete here.
12:11Yeah!
12:13Yeah!
12:13Sode looking to land out.
12:15Yeah!
12:16Can she get it?
12:17Yeah!
12:18Oh, like a vulnerable tonight.
12:21Starlight Kid with a crucifix.
12:23Two.
12:25Yeah!
12:27Yeah!
12:29Yeah!
12:29Yeah!
12:30Yeah!
12:32Yeah!
12:34Yeah!
12:36Yeah!
12:37Not the time to get too frustrated.
12:38Sode has to try and close in on what she's never had before.
12:42A win tonight in the quarter-final.
12:45Oh, no kidding.
12:46They got the pace.
12:48Oh, no!
12:50No, no, no!
12:50Sode!
12:51Sode!
12:52Two.
12:57Near fall and a count of two.
12:59This match rolls out here.
13:00No time for it.
13:01These women will go all night long.
13:04That's Sode is going to make sure that doesn't happen.
13:06off with her head.
13:20Amisore has never come this close before
13:23to a five-star Grand Prix victory.
13:27Desperately, desperately Amisore
13:29has to continue this fight.
13:35Desperately, looking for it one more time.
13:38That Fire Thunder driver, if she can hit it, it's done.
13:42Oh, no, Starlight around the world.
13:46DDT.
13:50Starlight to the world.
13:52Starlight to the semifinals.
13:55It has got to try and keep pushing here.
13:57And land that Sky Tiger himself for a three.
13:59It's all on to this.
14:01Oh, Starlight, keep your footing here, kid.
14:07And a Sky Tiger moonsault.
14:13And the barest, the barest of kickouts at two.
14:29Starlight hit is in the driver's seat tonight.
14:35Sky Tiger suplex could be inbound, and instead.
14:40One more time, one more time, Amisore has got to reach those long limbs.
14:44Over to that bottom rope, the middle rope, the top.
14:46Anything to save her.
14:48Goal!
14:50One more time, the star suplex inbound.
14:55Sode, star suplex on.
14:59It's over, it's over.
15:02Starlight kid is in the semifinals of the five-star tournament.
15:18Let's do it.
