Story: Officially, due to overwhelming demand from their Japanese fans, Harumi Nemoto and Yoko Matsugane are here to wrestle a real match, unlike the photoshoot they did years before where all the action was for show. But it's all too clear what the true purpose is: Yoko wants vengeance against Harumi for her defeat in Harumi's FCBA debut, and Harumi wants to assert dominance. The video of the match they are going to release is merely an added bonus.

The match is scheduled for a no-DQ match where two conditions are required for victory: the opponent must be stripped down to her bra and panties, and one must pin or force the opponent to submit at least once. The pin or submission must happen after the opponent has been stripped. Ms. Barbara Jean Blank, formerly known as Kelly Kelly of the WWE, will be serving as referee for this match.

This match is also the second match in a series of matches called the “Harumi Nemoto Gauntlet”, a 7-match series. Harumi declared to have beat the gauntlet if she wins at least four out of seven matches. Her current record is 0-1. Can she bring it up to 1-1?

In the Tokyo Dome, a ring has been set up WWE-style, denoting the serious nature of the bout. Harumi arrives in a translucent white crop-top and short-shorts of the same color over a black bikini, barefoot , her hair long and straight. Yoko arrives rocking a tight azure T-shirt and jeans over a white bikini, also barefoot, her hair also left long and straight. The arena roars at the two women’s arrival, sold out with long-time fans of the two models. Some cheer for Harumi, some cheer for Yoko, but it’s clear what they want - humiliation and brutality.

Tonight, total domination is the game - both physically and psychologically.

Action is high from the start, with both girls charging hard at the other as soon as the bell rings. Harumi wins the charge, forcing Matsugane to the ropes. She pounds Yoko in the stomach with her knee, forcing her down and starts to pull on her T-shirt. She succeeds in removing it, and throws it out of the ring before attempting to push Yoko into the corner. However, the younger woman manages a reversal, and instead pulls Harumi down, slamming her head into the turnbuckle. While Harumi lies slumped in the corner, Yoko runs to the opposite corner and back, slamming her booty into a dazed Harumi. Then, she drags Harumi to the centre of the ring, then ascends the turnbuckle, before leaping for a diving crossbody.

Harumi manages to regain her senses and roll out of the way as her opponent comes crashing down to earth, screaming as she hits the floor. Both girls simply lie there for half a minute, neither able to overcome the pain. Finally, each gets up at the same time as the other, Harumi a little dizzy, Yoko clutching at the spot that hit the floor first. Yoko is the first to act, charging at Harumi and knocking her down with a Thesz Press, then repeatedly pummels her in the head. It is with this that Harumi loses her first article of clothing of the day: Yoko savagely rips her crop top off, before being shoved away. The two women scramble to their feet, then run at each other, each taken down by the other's clothesline simultaneously.

This happens once, twice, then in the third time Yoko catches Harumi as they charge at each other, slamming her to the mat with a reverse STO. As soon as they hit the mat, Yoko rushes to remove Harumi's shorts. Although hurt from the STO, Harumi knows what's up, and does all she can to evade her opponent's attempts, soon trying to grab at Yoko's jeans herself. They are eventually tangled in a heap of limbs and clothing, having achieved naught but tying themselves together. A good ten seconds is spent on getting out.

Once untangled, the girls charge at each other once more, this time Yoko winning out, throwing her opponent into the corner. She rushes at the older woman with an elbow strike, but Harumi slides out of the way. She then grabs Matsugane by the hair and sends her crashing to the mat with a bulldog. To hurt the younger woman more, she picks her up then slams her down again with a sitout facebuster. It is enough to allow Harumi to relieve Yoko of her jeans at 5:43. She twirls it around like a lasso while doing a victory lap around the ring. All that remained was to end a wrestling match the normal way - by submission or pinfall.

However, the tides turn as she bends down to pick up her opponent, for Matsugane kicks Nemoto in the stomach, doubling her over. The younger woman spanks the bent-over arse of Harumi, angering her beyond description. She throws all of herself behind the clotheslines she attempts as Yoko runs the ropes, but Yoko ducks them all before locking in the headscissors and taking Harumi for a spin. It is a move out of Kelly Kelly’s arsenal, and the ref, the former Diva herself, looks on with approval.

It sends Harumi tumbling to the edge of the ring, where she's hit with a baseball slide that knocks her to the ringside. Yoko is fast to act, picking Harumi up by the shorts like a bully would her victim, but she's not here for lunch money - rather, just the shorts. At barely seven minutes in, both contestants are in their bikinis, their prize bodies bare. She drags Harumi back through the ropes, and swiftly applies the Boston Crab. The move bends the older woman’s body into a “C” shape, stretching her muscles taut. Harumi screams at the top of her lungs from the pain, and attempts to get to the ropes for a rope break, but Yoko does not let her, shifting to the ring’s centre. It is a tug of war to determine who can last longer - will Harumi tap before she reaches the ropes? Inch by inch, Harumi gets closer…

She’s at the ropes before she taps! The ref signals for Matsugane to let go, but she holds on for a good extra second before she obeys. Then, Yoko goes for a pin.

1… 2… Kickout at 2!

The younger woman’s clearly frustrated as she sets Harumi up in the corner, striking her a few times to make sure she stays put. Then, she climbs the turnbuckle herself before wrapping her arms around Harumi’s torso as if she were going to do a suplex. And she does, sending themselves going up in a perfect arc then crashing down in a spectacular superplex, the first of its kind in AHW. Most of the arena stands up in surprise. Nemoto’s body bounces once, twice, before settling in the ring’s opposite corner, clearly out cold, but Yoko’s not faring much better. She had underestimated how much damage she’d do to herself with the move, and the pain shows on her face as she struggles to get to the prone Nemoto. After twenty seconds or so, she’s close enough to drape an arm over Harumi’s chest, who’s awake by now but still has eyes clouded by pain. The ref counts one, two…

Harumi rolls to the side just before three out of sheer desperation. The crowd goes wild at Harumi’s tenacity while Yoko strikes the ground in anger.

She moves to pick Harumi up for another devastating move, but her opponent rolls her up for a 1 count. They get up and charge at each other, then Harumi kicks Matsugane in the stomach before picking her up and twirling her around into a backbreaker submission hold. It’s Yoko’s turn to scream and struggle, much to Harumi’s delight, but that happiness doesn’t last for long, for a backbreaker is much easier to escape than a Boston Crab. She’s not done with her, though, and takes her opponent for a ride with a belly-to-belly suplex. Pinfall for a two count.

Both women are bruised and tired as Harumi whips Yoko into the corner, Matsugane sliding onto her bum. Harumi takes this opportunity to shove her supple arse into Yoko’s face and rub it in with a few twerks - the classic stinkface, a timeless humiliation. The crowd laughs at a struggling Yoko, and her opponent basks in the laughter, beckoning for more. The superplex earlier has clearly taken a toll on her, though, for Yoko manages to reverse an attempted neckbreaker and puts Harumi into a headlock.

Harumi twists around in the hold trying to get free, but her opponent holds on tightly, continuing to cut off her air. She’s almost out as she slams a few weak punches into Matsugane’s belly. Finally, Yoko relents, the punches having loosened her grip. She’s not to be deterred, for she seizes Harumi by the hair and throws her to the mat.

A scissors kick is attempted as Harumi gets up, but Nemoto dodges the blow, Matsugane's leg whistling past her nose. She then tries to run the ropes for a drop kick, but Harumi sidesteps the kick and executes a leg drip bulldog on her opponent who had fallen to the mat. It connects, and Yoko is barely conscious as Harumi sets her up for the finishing move.

Harumi grabs Yoko by the waist and dangles her upside down, her victim's arms trapped behind her calves and their legs draped over her shoulders. It's a Faithbreaker, as Michelle McCool would have called it. From there it's a simple one two three.

Winner: Harumi Nemoto via pinfall at 17:03!

The post match humiliation is short. Harumi quickly claims Yoko's bikini top as a trophy and removes her own as she locks in the breast smother. Afterwards, she leaves the arena joyfully, chest still bare.
