Pre-Show Notes
- 4th Marigold Twinstar Champions Nanae Takahashi (1) & Seri Yamaoka (1) have been champions for 111 days – in their first reign. This will be the fourth title defence of their reign.
- This will be Magenta’s first title match since their heel turn at the 5/5 Marvelous show in Korakuen Hall after being eliminated from the AAAW Tag Team titles #1 contendership tournament by rookies Sora Ayame and Senka Akatsuki.
- Though not their first matches in Marigold – both took part in the Marigold vs. Marvelous 5-on-5 match on the 25th April – this match will mark the first title match in the company for both Maria and Riko Kawahata.
- Kouki Amarei will be missing from all shows due to a torn ACL. It has been confirmed that Amarei will return to action on the 24th May at Shine Forever alongside Kizuna Tanaka against Chika Goto and Minami Yuki.
- Naho Yamada will miss an undisclosed period of time through a knee injury she sustained in Shinjuku FACE on the 7th February. She has since confirmed that she has ruptured the ACL and lateral ligament in her right knee and will undergo surgery to repair the damage.
- Attendance Notes: The attendance inside the 176BOX in Osaka was unannounced at the time of writing. This is the ninth time Marigold have run the venue, meaning it is third in terms of the company’s most-run venues; third only to Korakuen Hall (15) and Shin-Kiba 1st RING (11). There current average at the 176BOX sits at 332, though this will obviously change should the official attendance be released.
