Having only returned from a torn ACL on Saturday 24th May at Shine Forever, GHC Women’s Championship Kouki Amarei made her return to a NOAH ring on May 26th at Monday Magic Prime Time Season Episode 1 live on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

Amarei partnered new Marigold Superfly Champion Mayu Iwatani in tag team action against Sadie Gibbs and The Great Sakuya, with Mayu securing the victory over Gibbs with a Dragon Suplex.

Post-match, Marvelous’ Takumi Iroha – fresh from her own victory at Shine Forever over Seri Yamaoka and a challenge in the bank for the Marigold World Championship against Utami Hayashishita – came to the ring and officially challenged Kouki for the GHC Women’s Championship. Iroha will be the second challenger to Amarei’s belt, with her defending the belt once against Chika Goto before being sidelined for over five months with an ACL injury.

This match has since been made official for Monday June 2nd at the next Monday Magic show in Shinjuku FACE, alongside Shuji Ishikawa defending the GHC Hardcore Championship against Manabu Soya.

Monday Magic Prime Time episode 2 will air live on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.
