STARDOM THE CONVERSION 2024 - WrestleFile Historical Verdict

Fukigen Death beats Rian in 4:33 with a backslide, keeping the pre-show concise and giving the rookie another experienced opponent. Rian's offense fits the quick opening slot, but the match is not designed to alter any championship or faction story. The result preserves the hierarchy without using a dominant squash, and it keeps the main card free for the longer matches that carry The Conversion's real consequences. Its archival value is mainly Rian's early-career progression.

FWC makes its second successful Goddesses of Stardom Championship defense by beating wing★gori in 19:23, with Koguma pinning Saya Iida after the diving body press. Hanan and Iida arrive one night after retaining the NEW BLOOD tag titles and push the senior champions through a full title-match structure. The loss prevents the younger team from becoming double champions immediately, but the competitive presentation makes their step into the senior division feel legitimate. FWC leaves with another defense and a new challenge from Syuri and Konami. The official June 22 post-match report adds that Hazuki called out Syuri and Konami for discussing a title shot backstage, and invited them to face FWC at Korakuen Hall the following week. The invitation was spoken by Hazuki after the retained title, not an additional championship match on this card.

Starlight Kid defeats Mei Seira in 13:23 with the Star Suplex Hold in a match that becomes more important because of what follows. Kid is unaffiliated after her Oedo Tai expulsion, while Seira is one half of Crazy Star with Suzu Suzuki. The decisive singles win gives Kid credibility before she talks about building a new same-generation group. Seira loses without a championship at stake, and the post-match interaction keeps the relationship open rather than framing the bout as a closed rivalry.

Mina Shirakawa and HANAKO beat Natsupoi and Yuna Mizumori in 11:17, with Shirakawa pinning Mizumori after Glamorous Driver MINA. Shirakawa is preparing for her AEW Women's World Championship challenge against Toni Storm, so a direct win gives her useful momentum without asking Natsupoi to take the fall. HANAKO continues to work beside a more established E nexus V partner, while Mizumori absorbs the decision inside a competitive tag. The match is connective material, but it has a clear purpose inside Shirakawa's international program.

God's Eye and Tomoka Inaba defeat the Cosmic Angels trio in 11:51, with Tomoka's strike helping Saki Kashima score the deciding fall on Aya Sakura. The placement protects Tam Nakano and keeps the younger wrestlers central to the finish. Ranna Yagami had just declared interest in Rina's Future title, so working beside Kashima and Inaba gives her another step into more established faction company. The match does not create a major new program, but it supports several developmental threads without derailing the upper-card stories.

Mayu Iwatani and Momo Kohgo reach the 15-minute limit with Syuri and Ami Sohrei in the Runaway Wrestler promotional tag. The match is intentionally lighter in tone, with movie-related presentation surrounding the in-ring work, but the draw protects all four wrestlers and gives the audience a reset before the faction elimination match. Iwatani and Syuri remain protected as top singles names, while Kohgo and Sohrei receive time beside them. It works best as an event-specific attraction rather than a must-see competitive result.

Oedo Tai defeats Queen's Quest in 27:29 and permanently changes the faction map. Lady C, Miyu Amasaki, Hina and AZM are forced out because Saya Kamitani is the final Queen's Quest wrestler eliminated. The match uses eight elimination moments to narrow the teams until Kamitani is isolated against Natsuko Tora, who wins with the Swanton Bomb. The result leaves one of Stardom's longest-running units with a single member and immediately creates four unaffiliated wrestlers who become central to the next wave of faction realignment.

The stipulation punished an entire faction for one member's failure to escape, making the final elimination about more than Kamitani's individual loss. Queen's Quest had been one of Stardom's enduring units, yet the match left its remaining membership effectively reduced to Kamitani alone. The wrestlers forced out did not simply join Oedo Tai; they entered an unsettled period that created new possibilities for the promotion's faction alignment. The result should therefore be indexed as a unit-changing defeat, not a standard tag victory.

Mika Iwata defeats Saori Anou in 21:08 with Thunder to win the Wonder of Stardom Championship. The match extends their existing rivalry beyond Stardom and gives a Sendai Girls champion a major Stardom title, creating an inter-promotional chapter for the white belt. Anou's reign ends after three successful defenses, but the competitive length and their history keep the change from feeling arbitrary. Iwata immediately makes clear that she wants to defend the championship in Sendai Girls, so the result carries a concrete next step rather than ending as a surprise title switch.

Anou had established her Wonder reign through decisive wins, making the arrival of an established Sendai Girls opponent a genuine test rather than a courtesy visit. Iwata's victory transferred a leading Stardom championship across promotional lines, and her stated desire to defend it in her home organization showed that the consequences wouldn't stop at the Yokohama result. The winner was the visiting wrestler, and the white belt changed hands; it wasn't merely a non-title crossover contest.

Maika closes the show by defeating Xena in 22:27 with the wrist-clutch Michinoku Driver II for her fifth successful World of Stardom Championship defense. Xena's position inside E nexus V gives the match a stablemate dynamic, and the main-event slot lets her work a longer singles match than her usual role. Maika's win is important because the show has already dismantled Queen's Quest and changed the Wonder title. Keeping the red belt stable gives the event one major point of continuity while still positioning Natsuko Tora as the next domestic threat.

The importance of Maika's defense becomes clearer alongside the other outcomes. Queen's Quest lost members under a high-pressure stipulation, and Anou lost the Wonder title to an opponent from another promotion. Had Xena won as well, The Conversion would have produced another major championship shift. Maika's victory instead kept the red-belt lineage steady while allowing the faction turmoil and new challenger activity to continue around the champion.
