The event started with the singles confrontation between Komomo Minami and Minami Yuuki, solded with the victory of the latter. Next up, Misa Matsui picked up a victory over Nao Ishikawa and Marigold Super Fly Champion Natsumi Showzuki in three-way competition. In the third bout of the event, Bozilla, Chiaki, Myla Grace and Zayda Steel wrestled into a time-limit draw against the team of Kizuna Tanaka, Mirai, Utami Hayashishita and Victoria Yuzuki. The fourth bout saw Arisa Nakajima and Marigold World Champion Sareee defeating Chika Goto and Nanae Takahashi in tag team action. In the semi main event, Miku Aono defeated Kouki Amarei to secure the first defense of the Marigold United National Championship in that respective reign. Aono became the first wrestler to defend a title since the debut of Marigold.
