The Future of Stardom Championship (フューチャー・オブ・スターダム王座, Fu~yūchā Obu Sutādamu Ōza)[3] is a women's professional wrestling championship owned by the World Wonder Ring Stardom promotion. The title was introduced on February 18, 2018,[1] and the inaugural champion was crowned on March 28, when Starlight Kid defeated Shiki Shibusawa in the finals of a five-woman single-elimination tournament.[2] Initially, in order for a wrestler to challenge for the title, they must have been under twenty years old or have less than two years of experience in professional wrestling. But on December 20, 2020, the experience level requirement for the title was changed from two years to less than three years of wrestling experience, however wrestlers under 20 may still challenge regardless of years' experience.[4] Starting with 2022, the championship became the property of Stardom's developmental sub-brand of New Blood alongside the New Blood Tag Team Championship. On June 25th, 2024, Rina broke Utami Hayashishita's record and became the longest reigning Future of Stardom champion of all time.

Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a scripted match. There have been a total of ten reigns shared among ten different wrestlers and two vacancies. The current champion is Neo Genesis' Miyu Amasaki who is in her first reign.
