STARDOM's Syuri is the top women's wrestler in the world.
Following a successful reveal of the PWI 500 last month, the people over at Pro Wrestling Illustrated have now revealed the PWI Women's 150. The list is exclusive to women, where as the men's list only features women that regularly compete against men in the ring.
As first revealed on Twitter, the current World Of STARDOM Champion Syuri tops this year's edition of the list. This is a big jump for Syuri, who ranked #7 on last year's list.
The evaluation period for this year's Women's 150 is October 1, 2021 - September 15, 2022. The criteria for ranking includes in-ring achievement, influence on the sport/promotion, technical ability, quality of competition, and activity.
Syuri has been the World Of STARDOM Champion since December 29, 2021. Throughout her reign, Syuri has successfully defended the belt against the likes of Mayu Iwatani, Momo Watanabe, and MIRAI.
