The major double title match came to fruition when AZM confronted and challenged Kamitani at the Sept. 6th STARDOM TO THE WORLD event at Yokohama Budokan following Kamitani’s successful title defense against Bea Priestley.

AZM holds a pinfall victory over Kamitani at the 5★STAR GP 2025 tournament which prompted her to make her challenge for the Red Belt.

Kamitani accepted the challenge as long as AZM also put her NJPW STRONG Women’s Title on the line. AZM agreed and the double title match was set for Sept. 27th.

The two champions had gotten into a heated exchange on X recently as both prepare for their huge showdown. Kamitani indicated that she will use AZM as a stepping stone. AZM shot back in her comments calling Kamitani a crybaby and implored her not to get scared and run away from the challenge.

Here is the fiery exchange between Kamitani and AZM  on X:

From Saya Kamitani:

A double title match has been decided for September 27th at Korakuen Hall.
When I look at photos of me facing AZM, I’m smiling in every one of them, so I guess I’m excited myself. But I don’t know what the Strong belt is, and I’m not interested in overseas titles. Why did I agree to the double title match? I thought she looked a little attractive and the main reason was to use you as a stepping stone. Don’t run away in fear, AZM-senpai 😉?

From AZM:

I’m glad Kamitani seems excited too. Honestly, I didn’t challenge her because of anything in the past. I was interested in the current Kamitani. Don’t get scared and run away. What a lame troll template. That’s disappointing. If you’re a heel and you’re holding a red belt, come up with a more unreasonable reason. That’s what I mean, Saya-sama 😉?

From Saya Kamitani:

Oh, when did you get so nasty?  What? So, That strange purple belt Would look even more attractive if you were wearing it. But you didn’t polish it properly, And mold grew on it, So it’s turned a weird color. Anyway, let me borrow it for a little while! I’ll use you, you brat!

From AZM:

AZM has been bad even before Kamitani started being so nasty. Don’t say things like Strong is some kind of weird belt 😂. It makes me wonder how much Stardom she’s missed. Media exposure is amazing, but I wonder if she’s too busy to see the real action in the ring. AZM is also fully prepared to use Kamitani! You crybaby bastard!!!

From Saya Kamitani:

Yes, it’s a slap in the face. Who’s that crybaby bastard? 😛. Saya-sama, don’t you have the perspective of a herbivore? If you don’t, you won’t be a red belt champion. 🤪 September 27th at Korakuen Hall, I’ll make you cry.

From AZM:

Wow, that’s scary! Herbivores have such a wide field of vision that they can protect themselves from predators and escape. 🤔 Ugh, Kamitani, don’t run away, lol. I hope we can fight somewhere before September 27th at Korakuen Hall.

The two champions have definitely added fuel to the fire with this verbal battle that took place on social media. Fans can expect an all out war when these two superstars meet on Sept. 27 at Korakuen Hall.
