BITE-SIZE SHOW REPORT: Stardom in Kobe 2025 Feb. (Saturday, 8th February 2025)

Ami Sohrei will be absent from all cards as she begins the process of recovering from ACL and meniscus tears in her knee.
Xena has suffered a ligament injury in her knee, and will be out of action for an undisclosed period of time.
Saya Iida and Matoi Hamabe have both been confirmed to be missing from upcoming shows due to respective injuries. No timetable is currently available for their return to the ring.
Saki Kashima was pulled from the show not long before the opening bell due to an illness, with the main event between God’s Eye and H.A.T.E becoming a 4-on-3 handicap match rather than a standard 8-woman tag team match.
This will be Konami’s first match in over a month, having returned from an injury sustained on December 29th to attack Syuri at the February 2nd Korakuen Hall show.
Attendance Note: The announced attendance inside Kobe Arts Center in Hyogo was 405. This is a 19.2% decrease from the only time Stardom have run the venue previously; on night 6 of the 5Star Grand Prix main-evented by Mayu Iwatani vs. AZM which drew 501 (19th August 2024).
