Stardom have announced the full card for their latest PPV – Flashing Champions 2024 on Saturday 18th May from the Yokohama Budokan. As well as four title matches, including the first time an AEW championship will be defended on a Stardom show when Willow Nightingale defends the TBS Championship against Tam Nakano, we will also have two number 1 contenders bouts for both the Goddesses of Stardom and Artist of Stardom Championships. The appearance of Tsukasa Fujimoto at All-Star Grand Queendom has manifested into something of a tag team dream match as Mayu Iwatani and Hanan take on Ice Ribbon’s Best Friends of Fujimoto and Arisa Nakajima, the latter of which makes her first Stardom appearance since 2013.
Currently, the main event is scheduled to be Saori Anou defending her Wonder of Stardom Championship for the third time against new challenger Ami Sourei.

Though the card has been announced however, President Taro Okada was quick to take to Twitter to state that despite this being the planned card, it is still subject to change due to wrestler illness/injury. Saya Kamitani – the High Speed Champion who is due to make her first title defence against Saya Iida at the PPV – has been absent from the past weekend’s cards due to poor health, with Nanami taking her place at Korakuen Hall and it is not yet known if she will be recovered in time for the show.
