Here is an old picture of legendary Japanese female wrestlers Jaguar Yokota and Devil Masami mixing it up in a match in Japan.

Mio Shirai - The Most Popular in Japanese Female Wrestling in 2015

This one kind of caught me by surprise.
The most popular Japanese female wrestler on this blog in 2015 was Mio Shirai.
I dont know if it was because of her closeness with everyone's favorite Kana, or with Kana going to the WWE, Mio just moved up.
Either way, Mio was on top here in 2015.

Kana to Debut Tonight on NXT as Asuka

Well in just a few short hours Japanese wrestler Kana will show up on WWE NXT as "Asuka".
Asuka means future...so we will see what the future will hold.
The WWE should be commended not only for hiring a female wrestler with over a decade of experience, but also one that is 33 years old and does not fit their usual "Diva" image.

Kana has already left Japanese wrestling, her final match in Japan was at the September 15 KanaProMania: Pulse event.
There she teamed with Hikaru Shida and Syuri in a six-woman tag team main event, defeating Arisa Nakajima, Rina Yamashita and Ryo Mizunami.

I wonder if Asuka is gonna be a heel?

Kana is now Kanna in the WWE

Well on August 22, 2015, Kanako Urai (better known to us as Kana) showed up on TV in the crowd at WWE's NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn event in Brooklyn, New York.
She was with Sgt. Slaughter and Ric Flair and was identified onscreen as "Kanna".
Five days later on August 27, the WWE indeed confirmed that she had signed with them a few weeks earlier.

So is she a Diva or a trainer?
Trainer would be awesome for the Divas and I bet that Kanna could still work matches for other promotions.
I just don't see Kanna as a WWE Diva, considering she could take out 90% of the roster by herself.

Syuri - Japanese Women Wrestling

Syuri Kondo was born on February 8th, 1989 in Ebina, Kanagawa.
She is five foot four, 128 pounds and made her pro wrestling debut on October 26, 2008.
Syuri was trained by Akira Nogami, Akira Shoji, Hajime Ohara, Yoshihiro Tajiri (yes, ECW's and WWE's Tajiri).
She has wrestled for many promotions including Hustle, Pro Wrestling Wave, Reina Joshi Puroresu, Smash, Wrestling New Classic
Besides wrestling, Syuri also competes in Shoot boxing and kickboxing where she has a 12-1-0 record.
Personally, I think she is one of the best female wrestlers to set foot in a ring, in Japan, Mexico or the US.

Arisa Nakajima and Syuri - Japanese Women Wrestling

Here's a shot of Japanese female wrestlers Arisa Nakajima and Syuri mixing it up.
I think this shot is from Kana's KanaProMania: Advance event on February 15th, 2015 where Arisa and Kana lost the Reina World Tag Team Championship to Hikaru Shida and Syuri.

Mimi Hagiwara vs Peggy Lee - Japanese Women Wrestling

He is a shot of female Japanese wrestler Mimi Hagiwara wrestling Peggy Lee.
Of course Peggy would go on to become the infamous "Peggy Lee Leather".
I think Mimi is about to hit her with a flying bodyblock.

And before they were partners, Arisa Nakajima vs Kana

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.
