History edit

Formation edit

After winning the World of Stardom Championship from Utami Hayashishita at Stardom Dream Queendom on December 29, 2021, Syuri felt underrated as being a normal member of Donna Del Mondo.[3] After several months, she showed her dissatisfaction to the leader Giulia and even broke up their "AliKaba" tag team on March 21, 2022, at Stardom in Nagoya, announcing that she wants her own path so she would hire herself a bodyguard.[4] On the first night of the Stardom World Climax from March 26, 2022, after successfully defending the World of Stardom Championship against Giulia, Syuri officially resigned from Donna Del Mondo and revealed her new unit's official name as "God's Eye" and also revealing Ami Sourei as being her bodyguard and implicitly the stable's first member besides her.[5]
