Stardom Mid Summer Champions (スターダム真夏のチャンピオン Sutādamu manatsu no chanpion?) was a series of professional wrestling events promoted by World Wonder Ring Stardom. The events took place on July 9 and 24, 2022, in Tokyo, Japan at the Tachikawa Stage Garden, and in Nagoya, Japan at the Nagoya Congress Center with a limited attendance due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic at the time.[2]

Mid Summer Champions in Tokyo

Stardom Mid Summer Champions in Tokyo was the first event of the Mid Summer Champions series and took place on July 9, 2022. The event's press conference took place on June 14, 2022 and was broadcast live on Stardom's YouTube channel.[3]

Background

The show featured eight professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[4]

Event

The two preshow matches were broadcast on Stardom's YouTube channel. In the first one, Lady C picked a victory over Hina and Yuko Sakurai, and in the second one, Hanan successfully defended the Future of Stardom Championship for the eighth time in a row against Waka Tsukiyama.[5] The third match saw Ami Sourei & Mirai defeating Utami Hayashishita & Miyu Amasaki in a tag team match. The fifth match saw AZM successfully defending the High Speed Championship for the fifth time in a row against Momo Kohgo. In the sixth match, Tam Nakano, Unagi Sayaka, Mina Shirakawa, Saki & Hikari Shimizu challenged Giulia, Maika, Himeka, Natsupoi & Mai Sakurai in an elimination tag team match. Natsupoi betrayed Donna Del Mondo by attacking Giulia mid-match, attracting the latter's unit loss. She subsequently joined Cosmic Angels in the process. After Saya Kamitani marked her seventh successful title defense in a row of the Wonder of Stardom Championship over Starlight Kid, Nanae Takahashi returned as a self-proclaimed partner of Kairi. Lady C stepped up on the behalf of Kamitani, establishing a tag team match on further notice.[6]

The main event saw Syuri defeating Momo Watanabe to secure the sixth defense in a row with the World of Stardom Championship. Tam Nakano stepped up to challenge Syuri on further notice, which the God's Eye leader accepted.[7]
