NJPW/STARDOM
New Japan Pro-Wrestling and World Wonder Ring STARDOM have announced a special joint event for later this year
Both promotions are notably owned by Bushiroad. In a press conference celebrating 15 years of Bushiroad, it was revealed that a show featuring both NJPW and STARDOM matches will take place on November 20.
As NJPW has an all-men’s roster and STARDOM is a women’s promotion, talent from the two promotions have rarely crossed over since Bushiroad’s acquisition of STARDOM in 2019. NJPW has featured several STARDOM exhibition matches in recent years, with Tam Nakano & Saya Kamitani facing off against Mayu Iwatani & Starlight Kid at Wrestle Kingdom 16 in January.
NJPW1972.com shared the following:
