Princess of Pro-Wrestling Championship

Japanese professional women's wrestling championship

The Princess of Pro-Wrestling (POP) Championship is a Japanese women's professional wrestling championship owned by the Pure-J promotion. The title was created in the JDStar promotion on June 24, 2006, when Fuka defeated Natsuki☆Head in the finals of a tournament to become the inaugural champion.[1] On June 17, 2007, JWP Joshi Puroresu's reigning JWP Junior Champion Arisa Nakajima won the title on JDStar's second to last event.[3] Though the two titles were not formally unified, they were defended together from this point onward.[4] The titles remained together in JWP for nearly a decade, before it was announced on February 8, 2017 that the promotion was shutting down. As a result, the two titles were once again be separated, with the JWP title remaining with the promotion's production company, while the POP title moved on to Command Bolshoi's follow-up promotion to JWP,[5][6] later named Pure-J.[7][8] Between the transition from JWP to Pure-J, the former JWP roster held events under the name Dream Joshi Puroresu, where the POP title was also defended.[9]
