The event featured what was billed as Giulia's last match in Japan before her imminent debut in WWE's NXT brand.[4][5] However, without any official confirmations, it is still widely believed that Giulia might still work in Japan in the future, giving the inter-promotional partnership with WWE that saw Iyo Sky return to Japan at Marigold Summer Destiny on July 13, 2024.[6]

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.
