The SWA World Championship (SWA世界選手権, SWA Sekai Senshuken) is a women's professional wrestling championship promoted by the Japanese World Wonder Ring Stardom promotion. It was created on May 21, 2016, during Stardom's three-day European tour, as the flagship title for a newly established international alliance called the Stardom World Association (SWA) (スターダム・ワールド・アソシエーション, Sutādamu Wārudo Asoshiēshon). Promotions in the alliance include Stardom, British Empire Wrestling (BEW), the French Association Biterroise de Catch (ABC), the Mexican Women Wrestling Stars (WWS) and the Spanish Revolution Championship Wrestling (RCW).
Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a scripted match. The rules of the championship state that only wrestlers from countries other than the reigning champion can challenge for it. For example, as long as the title had a Japanese champion, no other Japanese wrestler could challenge for it. There have been two reigns shared among two wrestlers. New Zealander Toni Storm is the current champion in her first reign.
