Just announced in today's Stardom 2022 Strategy Meeting:
✪ The IWGP Women's Championship!
★ NJPW and Stardom are creating this title for defenses not only in Japan but also in the US on New Japan Pro Wrestling events, appealing to the world with the rich IWGP history!

The inaugural IWGP Women's Champion will be crowned at the NJPW x Stardom joint show on November 20th at the Ariake Arena.

Please note, this belt does not usurp the Red and White Belts in any way. They are the main titles for Stardom events.

The IWGP Women's championship is for NJPW events. It's possible that it could be defended on big Stardom events though.

Stardom's main title remains the World of Stardom title (the Red Belt) along with the Wonder of Stardom title (the White Belt).

Pass. Hard pass. New Japan just loves creating belts.

Is there gonna be a STARDOM Men's belt created for joint shows too? Otherwise, what's the point? Just a way to slot STARDOM below NJPW when STARDOM has more momentum and buzz the last year and a half than NJPW.

My first thought about IWGP Women's Championship was
SHO-KO vs. YOH-KO
Hiromi Takahashi vs. Emil

disappointed.
