The High Speed Championship (ハイスピード王座, Hai Supīdo Ōza) is a women's professional wrestling championship owned by the World Wonder Ring Stardom promotion. The title was originally created on May 5, 2009, in the NEO Japan Ladies Pro-Wrestling promotion, where Natsuki☆Taiyo defeated Ray to become the inaugural champion.[1] As the name of the title suggests, it is meant for fast and high-flying wrestlers.[6] On November 19, 2010, Stardom acquired the rights to the High Speed Championship from NEO, which had announced it would be folding after December 31.[7] On July 24, 2011, Natsuki☆Taiyo, now affiliated with Stardom, defeated JWP Joshi Puroresu's Leon to officially bring the title over to the promotion.[2]
