STARDOM kicked off their 2026 with a double event in Shinjuku FACE for NEW YEAR DREAM. With a fresh start to the year, many of the STARDOM roster are setting themselves goals, with the Neo Genesis stable making their desire for championship gold clear.
At NEW YEAR DREAM, Neo Genesis’ Starlight Kid and Mei Seira teamed with the visiting Alex Windsor to defeat Natsupoi, Saori Anou and Anne Kanaya. Following the bout, Starlight Kid took the microphone to expand on the challenge she made at Dream Queendom. She made it known that she would be the next woman to challenge Saya Kamitani for the World of Stardom title.
In 2026, I’ll challenge for the Red Belt for the very first time! I said I wanted to challenge in my very first big match. So on February 7th in Osaka, I’ll win the Red Belt, and I, the Masked Woman, will become the face of STARDOM. Neo-Gen, you lost your belt, didn’t you? I intend to make a comeback from here!

Mei Seira then also took a moment to put another champion on notice. She made her intentions for Hazuki’s CMLL Japan Women’s Championship known.
Then, AZM and Miyu Amasaki competed for a shot at the Goddesses of Stardom titles. The 02line duo managed to defeat Hazuki & Koguma, and Sareee & Miku Kanae in a three-way tag clash. The next stop in AZM and Amasaki’s quest for gold arrives much sooner than their stablemates’. With their victory at NEW YEAR DREAM, AZM and Amasaki will challenge Natsuko Tora and Ruaka on January 10th in Korakuen Hall.
