By: Thom Fain

Picking up where the company left off in 2023, STARDOM has had a busy schedule to start 2024 and that continues this weekend with two days of wrestling and its annual awards ceremony. Forget the Oscars and the Met Gala, the real red carpet of glitz and glamour unfolds (at least for Joshi fans) happens on January 21st 2024 at the STARDOM AWARD 2023. MP will be at this weekend’s double-header, and reporting live to celebrate the fiercest female wrestlers of ’23 in Joshi pro wrestling’s premier league.

Fan polling is open for the SHINING award, so get your votes in.

If you’re in Japan, you can also line up to get commemorative photos & autographs before the ceremony starts.

STARDOM Awards Ceremony on January 21st, 2024

Instead of svelte models in couture, picture these stunning athletes emerging in dazzling gowns fit for an empress. Forget your typical wrestling gear – this Sunday, the queens of the ring trade steel chairs for sparkling jewels, and piledrivers for pirouettes.

Each wrestler arrives in a dress reflecting their unique personality and fighting style.

Last year, the ever-elegant Giulia dazzled in a flowing purple number, while the fiery Starlight Kid rocked a goth-infused suede and lace creation. The year before, the unpredictable Utami Hayashishita surprised everyone in a sleek, modern pantsuit.

But this isn’t just a fashion show.

The Stardom Awards are about celebrating the year’s most electrifying matches, the gutsiest performances, and the wrestlers who pushed the boundaries of the sport. As each award is announced, a mix of passionate fans and industry insiders can cheer and show their appreciation for the brutal schedule, unforgettable moments, trophies and championships that have positioned STARDOM at the top of women’s wrestling for yet another consecutive year.

Here are the categories:

• MVP Award
• Best Match Award
• Best Tag-Team Award
• Best Unit (Faction) Award
• SHINING Award
• Outstanding Performance Award
• Fighting Spirit Award
• Technique (Skill) Award

The women of Stardom are not just fighters; they are storytellers, weaving narratives of triumph and betrayal through every kick, slam, and Moonsault. At the STARDOM AWARD 2023, it isn’t just dresses that glitter – it’s the very soul of Joshi pro wrestling, shining brighter than any spotlight.

Oh, and there’s the wrestling this weekend – by the time the last ring bell sounds on the first day, fans will know who the High Speed Title champion and Artist of Stardom champions are.
