>[STARDOM] Tam Nakano is eager to meet Saya Kamitani again in the finals: "There's something I want to confirm"
>Tam Nakano, who is aiming for her first victory at the women's professional wrestling organization Stardom's midsummer festival, "5STAR GP," is eager to "reunite" with her rival Saya Kamitani (27) in the final (on the 31st at Musashino Forest Sport Plaza in Tokyo).
>She is competing in this tournament from the Red Stars B Block, losing to IWGP Women's Champion Mayu Iwatani in the opening match on the 10th (Yokohama), and then losing to Saya Iida in the Utsunomiya tournament on the 12th, making it an unexpected two-game losing streak at the start of the tournament. Despite this, she insisted, "I thought this year would be short and I'd be able to concentrate, but it's off to a bad start...But I have to win."
>She also has something to motivate her. On the 4th, before the start of the tournament, she was crowned Artist Champion along with Natsupoi and Saori Anou at the Hamamatsu tournament, but after the match, she was humiliated by having her hair cut by Natsuko Tora, the world champion and leader of the evil group "HATE".
>Nakano was furious, saying, "Just because she didn't have enough hair to cut for herself, she cut Tam's hair...I can't leave it to people like that who are trying to take over Stardom. If it carries on like this, Korakuen won't even hold 500 people. I won't tolerate this hate."
>It is customary for the winner of the league to challenge for the title. "I will win and reach the red belt. I have to protect Stardom," she said, expressing her strong determination. However, she also revealed, "Before that, there is something I want to confirm by facing Kamitani in the finals."
