Neo Genesis (ネオジェネシス, Neojeneshisu) is a professional wrestling stable mainly performing in the Japanese professional wrestling promotion World Wonder Ring Stardom. De facto led by Starlight Kid, the stable also consists of AZM, Suzu Suzuki, Mei Seira and Miyu Amasaki.[1][2]
History
[edit]Formation (June 2024–present)
[edit]At Stardom The Conversion on June 22, 2024, Queen's Quest's Saya Kamitani, AZM, Lady C, Hina and Miyu Amasaki fell short to Oedo Tai's Natsuko Tora, Thekla, Rina, Momo Watanabe and Ruaka in a Ten-woman elimination tag team match. Per the stipulation, since Kamitani was the last wrestler eliminated, AZM, Hina, Lady C, and Amasaki all had to leave Queen's Quest, assenting Kamitani to remain the sole member of the unit in the process.[3] AZM and Miyu Amasaki attracted the attention of Crazy Star's Suzu Suzuki and Mei Seira, and Starlight Kid who spent a couple of months as a solitary wrestler after being kicked out of Oedo Tai.
On the first night of the Stardom Sapporo World Rendezvous from July 27, 2024, Kid, AZM, Seira, Suzuki and Amasaki officiated the birth of the "Neo Genesis" unit as they defeated Stars (Hazuki, Koguma, Hanan, Saya Iida and Momo Kohgo) in a ten-woman tag team match as their inaugural bout.[4] The stable will be represented by AZM, Suzu Suzuki, Mei Seira, Miyu Amasaki and Starlight Kid in the Stardom 5 Star Grand Prix 2024.[5]

Notes
[edit]- ^ Neo Genesis never officially chose a leader. However, Starlight Kid is assumed to be the defacto leader of the unit due to her actions and her senior status. This is also reflected by the Stardom Roster Page that listed her in first place of all the members. All leaders have been positioned first of their stable since that page exists.
