Bozilla:
"Unbelievable! UN-BELIEVABLE! We had them beat. That little princess Giulia and her sidekick Mai? They got lucky! That's all this was—LUCK! A fluke!"
Bozilla:
"You think this is over? Hah! No way. This tournament isn't done, and neither are we. You see, setbacks like this... they don't stop us. They make us stronger. They make ME stronger. This is just one match in a long road, and by the end of it, we'll be the ones standing tall!"
Bozilla:
"You see Sakuya here? She doesn't need to talk, because we speak through actions. And when this tournament is over, those actions are gonna be us putting every single one of you down! Giulia, Mai, enjoy your moment while you can. Because when you meet us again, there won't be any 'luck' saving you. This is far from over."
Bozilla:
"We're still winning this tournament. Bet on it. Bozilla and Great Sakuya... we don't lose. We just take a detour before we dominate. Now get outta my face!"

Post-Match Comments from Giulia and Mai Sakurai
Giulia:
"Bozilla and Sakuya? Overrated. They talk big, but what have they done lately? Tonight, we showed everyone why Donna del Mondo's legacy runs deeper than their little tag team drama. Bozilla thinks she's some unstoppable force, but I stopped her dead in her tracks. And Sakuya? Barely a whisper in the ring. You're welcome for the lesson, girls. Maybe next time, actually bring a fight."
(Pauses, smirking as she adjusts her jacket)
"And Sareee... ah, Sareee, always pretending to be above us, like she's untouchable because she holds that world title. Let me tell you something, Sareee: titles don't make the wrestler. Wrestlers make the titles. Keep looking down at us, keep underestimating me—and when the time comes, I'll make sure your little world comes crashing down."
Mai Sakurai:
"Giulia and I? We're on another level. Bozilla, I almost feel bad for her—almost. Sakuya? She's like a deer caught in headlights every time I step in the ring. Honestly, it wasn't even a challenge.
And Sareee? You think just because you're a freelancer, you can disrespect this roster? Disrespect us? Maybe you've forgotten where you stand. Or maybe Giulia will remind you soon enough."
Giulia:
(laughs, turning to Mai) "Maybe sooner than she thinks."
Mai Sakurai:
"Exactly. Sareee, enjoy your reign while you can. It's not going to last forever."

Wiping sweat from her brow, visibly frustrated but maintaining composure as she speaks with intensity.)
"Another loss. Another failure. I'm Nanae Takahashi—I'm supposed to lead. I'm supposed to win. But here we are again, staring at the floor instead of standing tall. And Nao..." (She pauses, turning to face Nao, her tone shifting to disappointment.)
"I picked you because I believed in you. I thought you had that fire. But passion? Desire? I don't see it. Not in your eyes. Not in your movement in the ring. Do you even want this? Or are you just here because it's what people expect of you? Because let me tell you something—if you're not all in, you're going to drag me down. And I can't afford that."
(She exhales sharply, shaking her head.)
"I'm losing hope, Nao. I'm trying to give you every chance to prove me wrong, but I can't keep carrying you. If you want to stand beside me, you need to fight like it. You need to want this more than anything. Right now... I don't think you do. And that's a damn shame."
(Nanae storms off, leaving Nao alone in front of the cameras.)
Nao Ishikawa
(Standing awkwardly, clutching her arm, eyes downcast. Her voice is small and hesitant, wavering as she tries to explain herself.)
"I... I'm sorry. I let Nanae-san down. Again. I know I'm not doing enough. I know I'm not where I need to be to keep up with her—or with anyone, really. She's right. Maybe I don't have that fire... maybe..."
(She trails off, biting her lip, clearly holding back tears. After a moment of silence, she straightens up slightly, forcing herself to continue.)
"But I want to prove her wrong. I want to show her that I can do this. That I do want this. I'm just... I'm just not sure how to get there yet. I'll figure it out. I have to. Because if I don't..." (She looks away, her voice barely above a whisper.)
"...I'll lose her trust. And maybe... maybe this whole thing isn't for me after all."
(Nao quickly bows and leaves, trying to hide her embarrassment)

Myla Grace (elated, catching her breath):
"Ahh, that was awesome! Tonight, I felt like I was flying out there, just completely in my element. You know, people might see me as the underdog, but every time I step in that ring, I show why I belong here. And hey, speaking of belonging, Mirai..." (she turns to Mirai with a big grin) "You've been killing it as United National Champion. It's been an honor teaming with you."
Mirai (smiling, holding the United National Title):
"Thank you, Myla! Your energy, your speed, everything just clicked. Honestly, I can't wait for when it's you and me standing across the ring from each other. I know it's coming, and when it does..." (she pats her title and winks) "I'm bringing my best. I expect the same from you!"
Myla Grace (nodding enthusiastically):
"Absolutely! I'd be lying if I said I haven't been dreaming about that match since this bracket was announced. But, before we get ahead of ourselves..." (she pauses and adjusts her stance) "We've got Bozilla and Sakuya up next. And look, I've got a past with Bozilla, and Sakuya's no slouch either, but I've got my sights set on the finals. Nothing personal, but this tournament means the world to me."
Mirai (serious tone, shifting focus):
"Same here. Bozilla's power can be overwhelming, and Sakuya has a lot of untapped potential. But no matter how tough they are, I'm not letting this title—or our momentum—slip through our fingers."
Myla Grace (laughing, extending her hand):
"You bet! But when we win this tournament... and get those tag titles... I'm coming for you—and that title!"
Mirai (shaking her hand):
"That's what I like to hear! Let's make it a match the fans will never forget. But first, let's take out Bozilla and Sakuya."
Myla Grace:
"Together? They don't stand a chance!" (she smiles confidently as they exit together).

Natsumi Showzuki (Superfly Champion):
"Did you all see that? Another champion, another win! Sareee, world champion or not, you just proved that you're beatable. You walked in here looking down on all of us like you're some untouchable ace, but I just pinned one of your little team members while you watched. The Superfly Champion doesn't back down from anyone—not even someone like you. You can keep waving that world title around, but trust me, Sareee, it's just a matter of time before the 'ace' falls for good. When that happens, I'll be there to pick you apart, piece by piece."
Miku Aono:
"Sareee, I've had enough of you looking down on everyone in this roster, like we're here to make you look good. Newsflash—you're not as untouchable as you think. Tonight, we showed you that the world champion can bleed just like everyone else. You want to keep running your mouth about how you're above us? Fine. I'll shut you up myself. First, Seri and I are taking the tag tournament all the way. You better believe we'll make history as the inaugural champions, and when we do, that's just the beginning. Sareee, the world title is next, and it's only a matter of time before someone finally drags you off that pedestal."
Seri Yamaoka:
"Tonight wasn't just a win; it was a statement. People said we couldn't hang with Sareee's team—well, guess what? We didn't just hang; we won. Miku and I are more than ready to dominate this tag tournament, and after that, who knows? Maybe Sareee will finally realize she's not the only star in this promotion. This is our time now, and you're looking at the future of Marigold Wrestling."
Natsumi (smirking):
"Future? Seri, we are the present. And Sareee? Watch your back. This was just the beginning."
Miku and Seri (together):
"Tag tournament winners—and the future of Marigold. Count on it!"
