Background
On June 3, 2009 (2009-06-03), Jewels held a press conference in which president Yuichi Ozono announced the bout between Megumi Fujii and Saori Ishioka for the show to be held at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring on June 11, 2009 (2009-06-11), in a match that would allow ground and pound with three five-minute rounds, the first match with full MMA rules held in Jewels. Hitomi Akano was added to the card later on, along with three other matches and a few days after that, two more matches were added. The show attracted enough attention that tickets were sold out almost a week before the event. The final order of the card was announced three days before the event. The event was kickboxer Rena Kubota's debut with Jewels in a shoot boxing match.
