WAVE - Pro Wrestling WAVE
http://joshipuroresu.blogspot.com/

WAVE (Pro Wrestling WAVE) is one of the few Japanese female wrestling promotions still going strong, with matches every weekend.
Even if they do lean more towards comedic wrestling, their stuff is 10 times better than what you see in the WWE.
Here is a video posted by billzeroism on YouTube of the Pro Wrestling WAVE Happy New Year WAVE 2011 show on January 4th of this year.
It's a music videos with quick clips but you will see Toshie Uematsu, Misaki Ohata, Hiroyo Matsumoto, Sawako, Ayako Hamada and "Mil Mascaras" taking on Triple Tails (Kana and the "Sexy Purple Thunder Sisters" Mio and Io Shirai), Meiko Satomura and GAMI.

UPDATE:
Since YouTube is still deleting accounts left and right, the video I posted is now gone.
(Thanks Sony Music!)
So I have replaced that WAVE video with another posted by rankin84.



And if you happen to be in Japan, on October 9th, WAVE (Pro Wrestling WAVE), will be presenting Happy Birthday WAVE at the Tokyo Kinema Club.
The matches will be....
Lightning vs Mio
Cherry and Misaki Ohata vs GAMI and Sakura Hirota
Mayumi Ozaki vs Hana Moe Haruhi
Shibuya, Kaori Yoneyama vs Shu
Hisashi Uematsu, Sawako Shimono, Yu Yamagata vs Type O

Of course it's in Japanese.

Here's a picture of Chikayo Nagashima wrestling Toshie Uematsu in Japan.
I'm beginning to think these Japanese female wrestlers have the boston crab trademarked.

Toshie Uematsu

Wrestler name(s) To-chan, Toshi-A
Height: 5 ft 2 in
Weight: 130 lbs
Born: April 14th, 1974
Trained by: Chigusa Nagayo
Wrestling Debut: April 15th, 1995

Toshie Uematsu is a Japanese female Pro Wrestler who was very popular in the 1990s and 2000s.
Toshie was one of the first female wrestlers trained by Chigusa Nagayo when she formed the GAEA Japan promotion.
She is currently a free-lance wrestler.

Toshie was born on April 14th, 1974 and made her pro wrestling debut at the age of 21 on April 15th, 1995 at Memorial First Gong, which was the first show of the GAEA Japan joshi puroresu wrestling promotion.
In 1997, several GAEA wrestlers, including Toshie, appeared in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and were entered in the inaugural tournament for the new women's cruiserweight title.
Toshie won the tournament, defeating Malia Hosaka on April 7th, 1997 in Hunstville, Alabama, and became the first holder of the WCW Women's Cruiserweight Championship.
She lost the belt to Yoshiko Tamura on July 19th, 1997 and the title was vacated soon afterwards.
Toshie held the AAAW Tag Team title twice with her partner Ran Yu-Yu.
Toshie and Ran often bent the rules, winning a lot of their matches by countout after luring their opponents as far away from the ring as possible.
During her career so far, Toshie has held the WCW Women’s Cruiserweight Champion (once), the AAAW Tag Team Championship (twice with Ran Yu-Yu), the JWP Tag Team Championship (four times), the Daily Sports Tag Team Championship (once), the WDB Tag Team Championship (once) and the DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship (three times).


Toshie can change her looks as evidenced by the photo above, and below.
