Goddesses of Stardom Tag League

The Goddesses of Stardom Tag League (スターダムタグリーグの女神) is a professional wrestling round-robin tag team tournament held annually by the Japanese professional wrestling promotion World Wonder Ring Stardom. It was created in 2011.

The Goddesses of Stardom Tag League are held under a multi-point system. Two points for a win, one for a time-limit draw, and none for any other kind of loss. The team finishing atop the points standings are considered the winners of their respective blocks. The winners of the final match between both block winners will be considered the champions. All the matches in the tournament have a 20-minute time limit. The tournament was previously known as the Goddesses of Stardom Tag Title League until 2012 when it was also disputed for the Goddesses of Stardom Championship. From 2012 to date, the winners of the tournament only receive the right to challenge for the titles as number one contenders.

The first winners of the league were Yoko Bito and Yuzuki Aikawa who won the tournament on July 27, 2011, also being crowned the inaugural Goddesses of Stardom Champions. Kairi Hojo, Yoko Bito, Nanae Takahashi and Momo Watanabe share the record for the most individual victories with two, with different partners.

Tournament history
The Goddesses of Stardom Tag League is a professional wrestling tournament held each autumn by Stardom.
