History
Formation (2024)
On the second night of the Stardom Sapporo World Rendezvous from July 28, 2024, Natsuko Tora defeated Maika to win the World of Stardom Championship with help from Saya Kamitani who attacked Maika, giving Tora momentum to pick up the victory. Kamitani declared Queen's Quest's dissolution, joining forces with Tora and the rest of the time's Oedo Tai members: Momo Watanabe, Thekla, Konami, Rina and Ruaka. Tora then declared the dissolution of Oedo Tai, as the assembled forces would instead be going by the newly created unit, H.A.T.E.[3]
