  • • 70s Joshi on Wednesday: Kai! Ikeshita! Nancy! Victoria!
    61. 1979.09.2X2 - 04 Leilani Kai & Yumi Ikeshita vs. Nancy Kumi & Victoria Fujimi (After 9/21, possibly October)K: This has a heated energy to it that’s been missing in the earlier matches on the show. Things explode almost from the off when things go to the outside and Golden Pair get the better of the heels on the outside with some classic throwing wrestlers into chairs action. When things get b...2025
  • • 70s Joshi on Wednesday: Sato! Iwae!
    38. 1979.07.31 - 01 Chino Sato vs. Kazuko Iwae (Kazuko Iwae debut)K: There’s not much to say about the actual wrestling in this match so I’m going to talk about debuts. A much bigger deal of them is made in Joshi compared to other wrestling scenes. Part of this is that after its first boom in popularity with Beauty Pair, AJW set up a unique system of accepting new wrestlers with a two-stage proces...2024
  • • 70s Joshi on Wednesday: Nancy! Tomi! Kumano! Ripper!
    37. 1979.07.XX - 03 Mami Kumano & Monster Ripper vs. Nancy Kumi & Tomi Aoyama (2/3 Falls)MD: Almost 40 matches in, I’m wondering if we haven’t questioned the fact that there are so many makeshift teams enough. Obviously the footage is only a small percentage of the matches that were taking place, especially if you believe the numbers they mention on commentary about how many matches wrestlers ...2024

    • Victory Through Guts: From Beauty Pair to Crush Gals
    Beauty Pair and Crush Gals are two history making (and changing) tag teams that formed what we define today as modern joshi. Two teams that changed the course of history by not only bringing wrestling to the mainstream, but also help it to be viewed as a legitimate sport to many. During the early 1970’s […] The post Victory Through Guts: From Beauty Pair to Crush Gals appeared first on...2024
  • • 70s Joshi on Wednesday: Jackie! Ikeshita!
    32. 1979.05.XX2 - Jackie Sato vs. Yumi IkeshitaK: The legal-illegal moves ratio from Yumi Ikeshita here is off the chart. It's like she wrestles dirty as a matter of principle, even if a legal move would have done. There was probably more dirty moves in this one match from her than there's been on Raw this year. It's not just that that she's breaking rules though, there's a real malicious savagery...2024

    by @kadavri on TwitterI originally wrote this as a Twitter thread after having just finished the Dump Matsumoto ‘Queen of Villains’ Netflix series. The thread got way more interest than I’d expected! So I’ll try to tidy it up for the blog post.This isn’t me reviewing the show. This is for anyone’s who’s watched it (this article will be full of spoilers!) and wants to see the real-life matches it's...2024
  • • 70's Joshi on Wednesday: Kayama! Yokota!
    7. 1978.09.XX - 01 Lucy Kayama vs. Rimi Yokota (Probably September)MD: Believe it or not, we’re still in Hawaii. This was definitely a thing. Yokota is a couple more months experienced at this point and she shows quite a bit of confidence and intensity. Kayama has a height advantage, but Yokota deals with that by ambushing her from behind at the bell. After tearing her apart a bit, Yokota started ...2024

    MD: Most weeks we'll try to hit one full match but here, to start off, we have a few due to clipping.1. 1975.03.19 - Jumbo Miyamoto vs. Mach Fumiake (WWWA Singles Title) (Clipped)K: This is a historically important match that we only have due to the Samurai TV show ‘AJW Classics’ airing a portion of it in 2003. Jumbo Miyamoto is the current champion, she is a cousin of the Matsunaga Brothers (the ...2024

    10. 1979.01.04 - Jackie Sato & Maki Ueda vs. Mami Kumano & Monster RipperK: This is the last match Beauty Pair ever had a tag team. It is also the debut of Monster Ripper, aka Rhonda Sing or Bertha Faye in her unfortunate WWF gimmick. Rhonda grew up in Calgary and was a big fan of Stampede Wrestling growing up. She had contacted Stampede about being trained but was turned down (the Harts didn’t tr...2024

    31. 1979.05.XX1 - 02 Jackie Sato vs. Tomi AoyamaK: This one feels like a stylistic shift as we move on from the Beauty Pair era, with Jackie in particular portraying herself as a more serious straight-shooter wrestler. The opening half is played very straight, revolving around her and Tomi grappling for holds. Tomi is more aggressive, but also comes across a bit more frantic in her temperament whe...2024

The levels of spectacle are so much higher than anything else we’ve covered before, in fact I’m not sure the big 80s shows ever got as extravagant as this just in terms of the presentation. It certainly does get you in the mood to watch something moment...2024

    18. 1979.01.XX2 - 06 Charito Silver/Mami Kumano/Yumi Ikeshita vs. Jackie Sato/Nancy Kumi/Tomi AoyamaK: This JIP in a strange way, they do all the ring introductions then just when the match is about to start it skips ahead into the match already in progress. This gets very chaotic very quickly. They’re brawling on the outside and a moment I really liked was just the way Jackie smashes Yumi’s head ...2024

The match begins virtually immediately with Tomi throwing Jackie straight out of the ring and then beating her up on the outside as the crowd screams their heads off.
