>Comparison between Stardom and Marigold
>One of the big events that happened in 2024 was the founding of a new women's wrestling organization, Marigold.
>To be honest, I don't know much about the details, but it seems that the impact was also seen in terms of attendance, as many staff and wrestlers with close ties to Stardom were involved.
>As shown in the table above, Stardom, which had been steadily increasing in attendance until then, saw its first decrease in attendance since 2020, while Marigold managed to make it into 7th place in total attendance in its first year (and only started activities in April).
>Looking at these results, one might wonder if existing Stardom fans split up and moved to Marigold, so we compared the audience bases in the form of a stacked bar graph as shown above.
>In terms of the results, the combined total audience for Stardom and Marigold in 2024 exceeded that of Stardom in 2023, so it's not as if the fan base simply split. However, there are various ways to interpret this, such as "a certain number of people have emerged who watch both," "the audience centered on Stardom has grown to the same extent as last year, but it has now been split between the two organizations," and "the total number of viewers has increased due to the division and conflict between the organizations."
>Of course, there has been a significant decrease in Stardom alone.
