Tokyo Princess Cup (Japanese: 東京プリンセスカップ, Hepburn: Tōkyō Purinsesukappu) is an annual single-elimination tournament created and promoted by the Japanese professional wrestling promotion Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling (TJPW). The event has been held since 2014 and would later become available as an internet pay-per-view on TJPW's streaming service Wrestle Universe.[1][2]

At first, the winner of the tournament received an opportunity to produce an TJPW's event,[3] however, since 2016, it was decided that the winner of the tournament would receive a future title match for the Princess of Princess Championship, which was previously known as the Tokyo Princess of Princess Championship, as it was established in 2016.[4][5]
