Hail Sabin Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Nakagawa's retirement match but odds are the fellow Joshi were in the US for Nakagawa's retirement match and a vacation. Other then that don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveprazak Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Out comes Kellie Skater and Tomoka Nakagawa to lay out a challenge for Tomoka’s retirement match. She wants the Canadian NINJAs! OUT COMES AJA KONG AND DYNAMITE KANSAI! Then Kimura and Ozaki! They beat down Skater and Tomoka! Ohata and Hiroyo run out! * Tomorrow! Misaki Ohata, Hiroyo Matsumoto, Kellie Skater & Tomoka Nakagawa vs Kyoko Kimura, Mayumi Ozaki, Aja Kong & Dynamite Kansai Any backstory on this? I can't imagine Prazak booked and flew all of them in for an unadvertised appearance and 1 match? That's... pretty much what we did. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trocar Slush Weasel Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 While I'm thinking about old wrestlers, it turns out Momoe Nakanishi is doing her part to repopulate Japan by having 4 kids and looks like one already has some of her Mom in her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Casey Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Damn. I think that may be the best shape Shimoda's ever been in. I mean, she's always been in good shape, but I don't remember her being ripped like that before. And has there ever been an instance of 2nd generation joshi wrestlers? From Japan, I mean; I know Luna Vachon and Tamina Snuka and Nattie Neidhart are all 2nd gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the sons of Hokuto/Power Warrior aren't awesome wrestlers, it won't be their parents fault. I'm having trouble thinking of any 2nd generation Japanese wrestlers period, men or women.

Eivion Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Mitsuo Momota is Rikidozan's son. Fujinami's son, Leona, debuted a few years ago. And of course there is Daichi Hashimoto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.H. Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I remember Momoe posting pics of Mei and Mai doing crazy shit off their bunk beds a few years back and some people said Momoe was a bad parent for posting pics of it online. I think she was just happy to see her kids have fun James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Wasn't Kaori Nakayama a 2nd Gen Joshi? James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Casey Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Also Lacey Von Erich is 3rd Gen. Yes, yes. My point is that 2nd (and 3rd) generation American joshi wrestlers is a thing. Not so sure about in Japan, which is why I asked. Come to think of it 2nd generation wrestlers in general are hard to come by in Japan. I remember, in the Life in Japan thread, how Gordi said that one of Jumbo Tsuruta's kids liked watching wrestling, but wasn't interested in becoming a wrestler himself, and his other siblings weren't interested in wrestling at all. Wonder how common that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostinube Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Kaori Nakayama's mom was Miyoko Hoshino who had a short career from 69-73. She had a run with the WWWA belt in 72-73. Saki Akai is 2nd gen. Her mother is Fumiake Maha. Here's a short thing about some famous wrestling kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KidKash202 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Been getting into Joshi as of late. Taking my time. Lo Shirai has caught my eye. Loving the Tiger Masks that she comes out to. Very colorful girl. But, I am a fan of her theme. Can somebody find me a copy of it? I have looked online and haven't found anything. Sounds like something from the 80s honestly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DtM Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Soooo, what's the context of this shirt Sakura Hirota is sporting? That would be a reference to her double finger arse poke that she does quite regularly. It's a Japanese thing. I wish I could remember the word for it...I wanna say 'Kancho'? The character Faust does it as a super move in the fighting game Guilty Gear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
