"World Wonder Ring Stardom", presented as the TV show of the Japanese women's wrestling promotion of the same name, should not be on IMDB since it does not exist. The promotion has had TV specials, but does not have a regular TV series.

Jason: For clarity, are the 89 episodes currently listed under this series (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7993852/) actual broadcasts, which should be considered TV specials rather than part of an ongoing series? Or do those episodes not exist at all?
If the episodes actually exist, I expect that IMDb will continue to list them as a TV series. IMDb used to have a principle that "if it can be treated as an episode, it should be". Maybe if these specials were just starting out, IMDb might have chosen to classify them as specials rather than as a series, but with 89 of them already listed, I expect that they will continue to be listed as a series.
That said, if the episodes are completely nonexistent, you can submit a request to delete a title at https://help.imdb.com/contact. You would select "IMDB Fan/Contributor questions", then "Titles", then "Delete a title", then click "E-mail" which will bring up a form with which you can submit the deletion request for the series.
I hope this helps.

Some are TV specials, others are simply events that were not televised, and I don't know if they were released on home video. The promotion has an English-language website that people can subscribe to (though it's a complicated process from what I've read) to watch the events, but, they do not have a regular TV series.

Hi Jason -
If the events/titles exist and are available as episodes through online streaming, they are titles eligible to be listed on the site and shouldn't be removed. I hope this helps!
