Event: Stardom “Glory Stars Day 2”
Date:  April 14th, 2019

    • Mayu wins first pick by throwing Kagetsu over the top rope
    • Momo wins second pick by throwing Kagetsu over the top rope
    • Kagetsu wins third pick by throwing Hana over the top rope
    • Hana wins fourth pick by throwing Jungle Kyona over the top rope
    • Kyona loses and her faction is forced to disband

For the second year, Stardom had a draft for their factions. For the main event, the five faction leaders took part to determine the picking order for the draft. The big catch this year is that whichever wrestler was left at the end, their group would have to disband as only four factions would continue in Stardom. Jungle Kyona was the last wrestler remaining, forcing her faction Jungle Assault Nation to disband, with Jungle Kyona becoming a draftable wrestler. Here are the results from the draft that took place after the main event:
