BITE-SIZE SHOW REPORT: Marigold Spring Victory Series 2025 – Night 1 (Saturday, 1st March 2025)

Pre-Show Notes

• Kizuna Tanaka will be missing from the next two month’s worth of shows due to the need to rest and heal a persistent back injury she has been working with.
• Komomo Minami will be missing shows for the foreseeable future after injuring the medial collateral ligament and the meniscus in her knee during a tag team match at the Korakuen Hall show on the 26th December. A timetable for her return has not yet been confirmed. 
• Kouki Amarei will be missing from all shows due to a torn ACL. Her tentative return date is May 2025.
• Nagisa Tachibana has been removed from all cards until at least the end of February in order to recover from a rib injury.
• Hummingbird will continue to miss an undisclosed period of time through a knee injury she sustained in Nagoya on the 11th January.
  Naho Yamada will miss an undisclosed period of time through a knee injury she sustained in Shinjuku FACE on the 7th February.
• Seri Yamaoka will continue to miss action as she recovers from a concussion sustained on February 22nd.

• Attendance Notes: The announced attendance inside the Totor Green Dome Maebashi in Gunma was 203; this is Marigold’s first time running the venue. Marigold is seemingly only the fifth company to run the building since 2023, with Stardom (370 in 2023), NOAH (309 in 2023), OZ Academy (450 in 2024) and Diana (unannounced) seemingly running it prior.
