STARDOM MidSummer Champions Results (7/9/22) | Syuri vs. Momo Watanabe And More
Results for STARDOM’s MidSummer Champions PPV featuring Syuri vs. Momo Watanabe for the World of Stardom Championship.
STARDOM held MidSummer Champions on Saturday, the second of six major shows for the promotion in the month of July. The event comes one day after NEW BLOOD 3 and hailed from the Tachikawa Stage Garden in Tokyo, Japan with four big championship matches on the card. The major story heading into this should was simple — could Oedo Tai walk out with the two top titles of STARDOM?
The main event saw Syuri defend the World of Stardom Championship against Oedo Tai’s “Black Peach,” Momo Watanabe in a rematch from the 2021 5 STAR Grand Prix Final. Meanwhile, Starlight Kid attempted to gain the Wonder of Stardom Championship as she challenged Saya Kamitani for the gold.
So, could the champions keep their gold? Or was Oedo Tai’s Black Desire duo able to take over STARDOM?
Outside of the top two title matches, the remainder of the roster used their matches to try and get momentum heading into the 5 STAR Grand Prix, which beings with a double-header on July 30 and 31.
