The Stardom 5 Star Grand Prix is a professional wrestling tournament held each summer by Stardom. Similar to Bushiroad-owned male counterpart New Japan Pro-Wrestling with the G1 Climax tournament, it is currently held as a round-robin tournament with wrestlers split into two pools. The winner of each pool will compete in the final to decide the winner. As is the case with G1 Climax, a win is two points and a draw is one point for each wrestler.[3]
The format of the tournament saw 28 wrestlers divided in two major blocks divided in other two sub-blocks. Stardom initially announced twenty-four contestants with four extra having to undergo a series of qualifying matches for the last spot in each of the final blocks.[5]
