Mio Shirai - Japanese Women's Wrestling

Right behind Kana, Mio Shirai is one of the most popular women on this blog.
She was trained by Tomohiko Hashimoto and Toshie Uematsu and has been wrestling for almost eight years.
Of course in the beginning she was teamed with her younger sister Io Shirai as the "Purple Thunder" sisters.
Then for a while they both formed the Triple Tails stable with the popular Kana.
Currently Mio has a four way contract with Japanese wrestling promotions Ice Ribbon, Oz Academy, Pro Wrestling Wave and Union Pro.

Kana vs Syuri - Japanese Women's Wrestling

"When in doubt, post Kana".
Here is Kana on the receiving end of what appears to be a pretty stiff kick from Syuri.
And that's Makoto looking on in the background.

These three have had some pretty wild times in the ring in Japan and they are still going at it.

By the way, in case you didn't know, Syuri is 11-0-0 in Pro Kickboxing.
So she knows how to kick.

More fun with Kana, Syuri and Makato...

Yuhi vs Hamada - Japanese Female Wrestling

Here is retired Japanese female wrestler Yuhi nailing Ayako Hamada with a flying kick to the side of the head.
After only two years as a pro wrestler, Yuhi retired in March of 2014.
Incredibly she retired just afetr he High School graduation.
Yeah, the two years that she wrestled, she was in High School and she retired at the ripe old age of 19.

Of course Ayako Hamada is still going strong.
She debuted in 1998 and is still going today.

Japanese Female Wrestler - Cuty Suzuki (Cutie Suzuki)

And next to Chikako Shiratori, the most popular Japanese female wrestler here lately is the lady that was in the video I linked to last time, Cuty Suzuki (Cutie Suzuki).
Cuty was born on October 22, 1969 in Kawaguchi, Saitama, Japan and made her pro wrestling debut on September 19, 1986.
Cuty is retired now, but during her career, she held the UWA Junior Wrestling title, the JWP Junior Wrestling title and one half of the JWP Tag Team Women's Wrestling titles five times.
Twice with Mayumi Ozaki, once with Devil Masami and twice with Dynamite Kansai.

Here is a video of Cuty going up against Candy Okutsu in a JWP match from July 18, 1997, posted once again to YouTube by nagashimark.

Japanese Female Wrestling - Chikako Shiratori

How can anyone that pretty be that mean?

Since everyone seems to be on a Chikako Shiratori kick here, (Yes I read what everyone wants to see...) I thought I'd post this picture and this video link.

The vid was posted to Veoh by the famous Nagashimark and it's a battle between Chikako Shiratori and Cuty Suzuki.
And battle is the correct term.
These ladies go at it from the opening bell wide open.
And Chikako plays the consummate old school heel, smiling when she is punishing Cuty.
She seems to really enjoy hurting her opponent.

You can see the whole video here

And as always, after you watch it, if you like the vid, subscribe to Nagashimark's channel to show your appreciation for getting this Joshi action out to the public.

Hamada In TNA So Far

The most popular topic on this blog by far last month was Ayako Hamada, or just "Hamada" as she's now known in TNA.

Hamada made her debut on TNA Impact! on August 27th when she battled another veteran female wrestler Daffney in a No Disqualification match.
Hamada came out on top and she seemed to be pushed as a face.

Then the next week she teamed with Sojo Bolt to go up against Tara and Christy Hemme (considering their old WWE feud, an unusual combination).
Hamada and Bolt lost, and afterwards, Hamada hit Sojo with the Hamada Driver (Sitout scoop slam piledriver) for losing.
So is Hamada a face or a heel?
Or will they pull a Stone Cold and have her as a tween that might give anyone the Hamada Driver if she gets angry?

In case you missed the match, you can see the whole thing on YouTube here:

BTW, note the exchange between Hamada and Tara (my mark out moment) at the beginning that lead to a double kip up and applause from the TNA audience.
Applause during a female wrestling match?
Amazing.
