Stardom Dream Queendom 2023 (スターダム ドリームクイーンダム 2023, Sutādamu dorīmukuīndamu 2023) was a professional wrestling event promoted by World Wonder Ring Stardom. It was the third annual Stardom Dream Queendom and took place on December 29, 2023, in Tokyo, Japan, at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan. It was the last pay-per-view organized by Stardom in 2023.

Eight matches were contested at the event, including one on the pre-show, and four of Stardom's ten championships were on the line. The main event saw Maika defeat Suzu Suzuki to win the vacant World of Stardom Championship. In other prominent matches, Saori Anou defeated Mirai to win the Wonder of Stardom Championship, and Giulia defeated Megan Bayne to retain the Strong Women's Championship.

Production

Background

The show featured professional wrestling matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.

Storylines

The event's press conference was broadcast live on Stardom's YouTube channel on December 12, 2023. Besides the matches scheduled for the pay-per-view, it was announced that Tam Nakano would relinquish the World of Stardom Championship due to lingering injuries. A tournament was announced to take place on November 28, 2023, whose winner would face Grand Prix rightful challenger Suzu Suzuki for the vacant title at Dream Queendom on December 29, 2023. Mina Shirakawa, Momo Watanabe, Ami Sourei and Maika were announced as the participants. Maika would go on to win the tournament.

Event

The event started with the preshow bout which was broadcast live on Stardom's YouTube channel. Miyu Amasaki, Azusa Inaba and Yuzuki defeated Hanako, Kurara Sayaka and Ranna Yagami in six-woman tag team action. After the bout concluded, Tam Nakano came down to the ring to express her apologies for her sudden injury at the time, because of which she had to vacate the World of Stardom Championship earlier that year and that she would make an imminent comeback soon.
