Stardom ran a Starlight Kid 10th Anniversary event today, commemorating the event for the promotion’s popular Tiger Mask-like character.
Today’s event was held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and was scheduled to be a live PPV but the broadcast was cancelled due to technical issues (a global network issue related to an Amazon Web Services outage early this morning), however thanks to an “emergency decision” you can watch the entire event FOR FREE on YouTube. Anyone who purchased the PPV will get refunds. (On a side note, New Japan World is also down because of this, and WRESTLE UNIVERSE is also affected. As of 10 AM PT/1 PM ET all services have been restored)
The paid attendance has not yet been announced but it was a legit advance sellout.
Pre-show match: Starlight Kid beat Starlight Sophistication & Shin Starlight Kid in a 3-way.
Match 1: Riho, Ram Kaichow & Rina beat Emi Sakura, Hina & Yuna Mizumori. Riho pinned Mizumori.
Match 2: Saya Iida won a 9 woman battle royal, last eliminating Tomoka & Azusa Inaba together.
Match 3: Mei Seira & Miyu Amasaki beat Yuki Miyazaki & Mina Shimoda. Seira pinned Miyazaki after a reverse Shooting Star

Main Event: Kyoko Inoue, Jun Kasai (Freedoms) & Shingo Takagi (New Japan) beat Starlight Kid, Dragon Kid (Dragon Gate) & El Desperado (New Japan). Inoue pinned Kid after a Takagi Death Valley bomb, a Kasai Pearl Harbor Splash and a powerbomb. (Correction: The original post listed this as a handicap match with Mina Shimoda involved. Shimoda seconded the losers but was not in the match)
