On April 7, Hikaru Shida announced she would be dropping out to receive surgery on a distal tibia fracture,[148] forfeiting the rest of her matches.
Because Violence Block ended in a three-way tie, the tiebreaker was determined to be a gauntlet match where the first woman to win two consecutive falls would advance.
With the Wave Single Championship being vacated due to the last champion Misaki Ohata's retirement from professional wrestling, the winner of the tournament would win the vacant title as well.
[158] In the finals, Takumi Iroha defeated Nagisa Nozaki and Ryo Mizunami in a three-way match to win the tournament and the title.
Due to Nagisa Nozaki being one of the finalists of the tournament, the final match was also disputed for her Wave Single Championship and will take place on July 17.
