Seven matches were contested at the event. The main event saw Rina defeat Lady C to retain the Future of Stardom Championship.
"New Blood" is a series of events that mainly focus on matches where rookie wrestlers, usually with three or fewer years of in-ring experience, evolve. Besides wrestlers from Stardom, various superstars from multiple promotions of the Japanese independent scene are invited to compete in bouts that are usually going under the stipulation of singles or tag team matches.[3]
The show featured seven professional wrestling matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[4] The event's press conference took place on May 15, 2023, and was broadcast on Stardom's YouTube channel.[5]
The entire show was broadcast live on Stardom's YouTube channel. In the first bout, Goddesses of Stardom Champions Ami Sourei and Mirai picked up a victory over rookies Sakura Aya and Hanako. In the second one, Hanan and Saya Iida picked up a victory over Oedo Tai's Ruaka and Pro Wrestling Wave's Kohaku. Next up, Ram Kaicho and Maika Ozaki defeated Sexy Dynamite Princess and Waka Tsukiyama. Next up, Nanae Takahashi defeated one third of the Artist of Stardom Champions Mai Sakurai in her series of "passion injection" matches in which she punished younger talent for directly disrespecting her or not treating their wrestling career properly. The fifth bout saw Queen's Quest's stablemates AZM and Miyu Amasaki colliding in the latter's rookie series match, solded with the victory of AZM. In the semi main event, Starlight Kid and Karma defeated Professional Wrestling Just Tap Out's Tomoka Inaba and Azusa Inaba to secure the second consecutive defense of the New Blood Tag Team Championship in that respective reign. After the bout concluded, they received a challenge from the teams of 02line (AZM and Miyu Amasaki), and wing★gori (Hanan and Saya Iida), shaping up a three-way tag team match for the titles on further notice.[6][7]
