Stardom 5★STAR Grand Prix 2026 Day 4 Highlights in Kanazawa, Japan

Stardom held the fourth day of its 5★STAR Grand Prix 2026 at the Ishikawa Industrial Exhibition Hall in Kanazawa. Rina Yamashita defeated Lady C to move to five points, while Rina secured an earlier win over Akira Kurogane to open the event.

Itsuki Aoki added four points with a victory over Natsuko Tora, and Maika tied Sayaka Kurara at four points after a cross‑armbreaker submission. Azusa Inaba upset Utami Hayashishita, giving the latter only one point, and AZM recorded her first tournament points by beating Tomoka Inaba. In the main card, Maki Itoh faced Saya Iida in a near‑time‑limit bout that ended with Iida executing a vertical suplex for the win.

The night also featured AEW’s Julia Hart entering the tournament as a replacement for the injured Bea Priestley, capturing the Artist of Stardom Championships earlier in July and earning a quick victory over Rian. The results shifted block standings as several wrestlers reached new point totals and continued their campaigns toward the Grand Prix title.
