Women's Wrestlers With The Most World Titles (Across All Major Promotions)
27. Chihiro Hashimoto (5)
5 Sendai Girls World Championships
In the men's version of this list, if two wrestlers had the same amount of different World titles, the one who had won his titles quickest was placed above. It was an arbitrary decision. After all, you could also make the case that winning World titles over a longer period of time demonstrates consistency and longevity, and it's the criterion we'll be following here.
This means Hashimoto edges Miyamoto, although by a mere few months, and well, there is a lot more to say about her. The most valuable asset of Sendai Girls, her last reign with the belt lasted from October 2019 to December 2022. Add to that the fact that she is the only joshi to have win that title more than once, and it's clear her combined reigns total (1,900+ days) is out of reach in the foreseeable future.
Tokyo Sports' 2016 Rookie of the Year, Hashimoto has eight years of experience carrying a whole company on her back, and is still only 31. Yours truly for one can't escape the impression that she'd kill it in WWE. A heavyweight with technical finesse, her style would stand out in the women's division, and she could nail that immovable, final boss persona on the main roster as well as mentor Meiko Satomura did on NXT UK.
