COVID-19 restrictions have wreaked havoc on the Starodm schedule, especially the Cinderella Tournament which was originally due to take place in April.\u00a0 Instead, the tournament is being split across a few shows with round 2\u00a0 and the Quarter Finals taking place at Korakuen Hall on May 14 with the remaining rounds taking place at a later date.\u00a0 This show also features the beginning of a tournament to crown a new Future Of Stardom champion.\u00a0 Without further ado let’s take a look at the card for Cinderella Tournament Round 2.<\/p>\n

Full Card for Cinderella Tournament (5\/14\/21)<\/h2>\n

Future Of Stardom Championship Tournament:\u00a0<\/strong>Ruaka vs Mina Shirakawa<\/p>\n

Tam Nakano vs Natsupoi vs Hanan vs Lady C<\/p>\n

Queen’s Quest (Momo Watanabe, AZM & Hina) vs Oedo Tai (Natsuko Tora, Fukigen Death & Konami)<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Mayu Iwatani vs Rina (Due to Rina’s absence Iwatani wins this match)<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Utami Hayashishita vs Syuri<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Giulia vs Maika<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Starlight Kid vs Saya Kamitani<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Unagi Sayaka vs Winner of Syuri vs Utami Hayashishita<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament: <\/strong>Himeka vs Mayu Iwatani<\/p>\n

Future Of Stardom Championship Tournament – Ruaka vs Mina Shirakawa<\/h2>\n

\"Ruaka<\/a><\/p>\n

An unfortunate major injury to\u00a0Saya Iida <\/strong><\/a>has left the Future Of Stardom Championship in limbo.\u00a0 Stardom has now announced a 7 woman tournament to crown a new champion which kicks off at Korakuen Hall as Ruaka takes on Mina Shirakawa.\u00a0 Ruaka goes into this one as our favorite as she seems more likely to win this title than Shirakawa who has kind of outgrown the Future division due to being one of the only members in Cosmic Angels.<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament Round 2: Syuri vs Utami Hayashishita<\/h2>\n

\"Cinderella<\/a><\/p>\n

Syuri and Hayashishita have had a feud brewing for the last few weeks with the two clearly on a collision course for a world title match eventually.\u00a0 We see this one going to a draw and knocking both women out of the tournament, their last match in the 5STAR Grand Prix also ended in a draw.\u00a0 This would see Unagi Sayaka<\/strong> instantly go through to the semi-final and seems like a logical move to set up their world championship match.<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament Round 2: Giulia vs Maika<\/h2>\n

\"Cinderella<\/a><\/p>\n

Donna Del Mondo teammates collide in a match that seems primed for an upset win for Maika.\u00a0 Our current projections have Maika meeting\u00a0Saya Kamitani <\/strong>in the final so an upset win for Maika is needed in this match and would serve as the best way to eliminate Giulia.\u00a0 Giulia has been dominant since her arrival in Stardom but her faction mates seem to be immune to her domination and a loss to Maika here would continue that trend for Giulia.<\/p>\n

Cinderella Tournament Quarter Final – Himeka vs Mayu Iwatani<\/h2>\n

\"Cinderella<\/h2>\n

For the second tournament in a row, Himeka meets Mayu Iwatani.\u00a0 Iwatani won their match in the Grand Prix but we predict Himeka walks away the winner this time.\u00a0 Himeka presents a strong but beatable challenge on Kamitani’s presumed road to the final and Iwatani is busy with Oedo Tai so can’t be tied up in this tournament.<\/p>\n
