  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Mimi! Devil!
    Volume 3  5. Devil Masami vs. Mimi Hagiwara (WWWA Singles Title Next Challenger Tournament Final) 3/7/82K: So this is the state of play going into this match. Monster Ripper just returned to AJW, she tagged with Wild Kazuki in the match before this one defeating Jumbo Hori & Nancy Kumi. She has a title match against Jaguar Yokota booked at the next big AJW show on April 7th at Yokohama C...2026
  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Chigusa! Nancy! Jumbo! Lioness!
    Volume 31. Chigusa Nagayo & Nancy Kumi vs. Jumbo Hori & Lioness Asuka 1/26/82 K: It’s a bit flukey that there ended up being ended up being three matches from this show on the set. The reasons for including the next two matches we’re covering should be clear from watching them. This one was a late inclusion though, it’s relatively run of the mill match. It’s mainly here so we can get another ...2026
  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Masami! Kazuki! Mimi! Yukari!
    Disc 2 14. Devil Masami, Wild Kazuki, Mimi Hagiwara & Yukari Omori Interviews 1/4/82MD: The interviewer has a Stan Hansen moment when she tries to go see Masami and Kazuki (still called Ito here) in their locker room. Masami almost kills her. It’s great. Then we get a decent amount of insight from Hagiwara and Omori. They just won the belts. Omori would try to follow Mimi’s lead. Hagiwara wou...2026
  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Kumano! Ito! Jaguar! Noriyo!
    Disc 2 11. Hiroe Ito & Mami Kumano vs. Jaguar Yokota & Noriyo Tateno 8/81K: Black Pair and Jumping Bomb Angels are Joshi tag teams from totally different eras, so the biggest novelty of this match is that their careers overlapped just enough to see one of each team against each other. By 'just enough' I mean this is Noriyo Tateno's TV debut and, from the footage we have available, the last in...2026

  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Mimi! Nancy!
    Disc 2   10. Mimi Hagiwara vs. Nancy Kumi 8/81K: 1981 after Jackie Sato drops the belt is the period of AJW where it's most difficult to date anything precisely. The company is at a relative lowpoint in popularity, and for whatever reason I've struggled to find many sources referencing it so have had to just depend on what's on the footage itself, which for some reason is even more ...2026

  • • 80s Joshi on Wednesday: Mimi! Ikeshita!
    Disc 2 6. Mimi Hagiwara vs. Yumi Ikeshita (All Pacific Title) 2/25/81This was a major show, it's hard to know for sure but I'd guess it was the biggest AJW show of 1981. They have some retired stars providing guest commentary. Also on this show was Chino Sato's retirement ceremony and the team of Ayumi Hori & Nancy Kumi defeating Devil Masami & Mami Kumano to win the vacated WWWA Tag Team Tit...2026

  • • 70s Joshi on Wednesday: Finale
    CLOSING THOUGHTSK: I’m coming at this from a very different place to Matt in that I’d seen maybe 60% of these matches before starting this, but I’d written very little nor did I have many organised thoughts about 1970s Joshi. I mostly saw it as an interesting precursor to my prime interest, the 80s & 90s Joshi boom periods. Have my views changed? No. Not in any significant way at least. But I do f...2025

    55. 1979.09.21 - 02 Mami Kumano & Yumi Ikeshita vs. Nancy Kumi & Victoria Fujimi (WWWA Tag Team Titles) (2/3 Falls)K: The introductions are pretty reserved considering what happens the moment the bell rings: Mami Kumano apron neck-swings both her opponents within the first minute while Yumi Ikeshita keeps the other at bay. From here Black Pair really dominate too things, probably a bit too much re...2025

    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
  • • Queen of Villains - Truth & Fiction
    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

     30. 1979.05.XX1 - 01 Mami Kumano & Monster Ripper vs. Nancy Kumi & Victoria FujimiK: This was a very similar kind of match to one we covered last week and the main purpose was clearly building up Monster Ripper for her title match against Jackie Sato on 7/31. To avoid repeating myself I’ll just focus on the different aspects. Firstly this was two falls but the two falls played out very diffe...2024

    Disc 2 4. Ayumi Hori & Nancy Kumi vs. Jackie Sato & Rimi Yokota 1/6/81K: This match is Red Phoenix vs. Dynamic Jaguars, i.e. the two babyface factions going up against each other. I noticed at the entrances that Ayumi Hori is now being billed as ‘Super Jumbo Ayumi Hori’, she’ll get her name changed to Jumbo Hori soon after this.This is worked a very fast pace, certainly unlike most wrestling ...2026

    67. 1979.10.17 - 02 Fabulous Moolah vs. Nancy Kumi (NWA Women's Title)K: This is a big match for Nancy Kumi. Even if the NWA Women’s Title wasn’t as established in Japan as the Men’s equivalent, I have to assume the prestige of the organisation would make it being defended here feel like a big deal. Nancy did have a couple of tag title reigns before this (with Jackie Sato, and later with Victoria ...2025

    Disc 2 2. Jackie Sato vs. Nancy Kumi (WWWA Singles Title Tournament Final) 12/16/80K: This will be far more of a write-up than a ‘review’ as only about ⅓ of the match was broadcast so there’s not much to meaningfully assess. I generally didn’t even consider including such incomplete matches in this set but I made an exception here because the narrative importance to the promotion. Simply put,...2026

    Disc 1 14. Nancy Kumi vs. Yumi Ikeshita (WWWA Singles Title Tournament 1st Round) - 11/5/80K: The most striking thing here is that Yumi Ikeshita starts this match with some MMA style gloves and starts throwing punches. The announcer is calling “body blow, body blow!” as she corners Nancy Kumi and pummels her in the gut. Nancy reacts to it like something illegal is happening, turning to the re...2025

    44. 1979.08.XX2 - 01 Nancy Kumi vs. Seiko HanawaK: Matt is correct in that this show is actually from July, as the commentary hypes the Jackie Sato vs. Monster Ripper title match on July 31st. To prepare for this project, I made a good effort to catalog every 70s AJW match there’s footage of and put them in chronological order, but because of the lack of dates in written sources/me not understandi...2024

There are only 3 matches from the tournament that we have footage of, the Nancy Kumi vs. Yumi Ikeshita match covered a couple of weeks ago, this, and the final. For thos...2026

    Disc 1 11. Mimi Hagiwara vs. Rimi Yokota - 8/80K: Before I go into the match, I’ll fill in a bit of missing context. Shortly before this match we’re covering was the biggest AJW show of 1980, which was on 8/8/80 at the Denen Coliseum. The claimed attendance was 10,000 fans, almost certainly exaggerated, but it gives you an idea. The main event was Jackie Sato vs. Monster Ripper for the WWWA S...2025

    Disc 1 10. Chabela Romero, Monster Ripper & Tenjin Masami vs. Jackie Sato, Nancy Kumi & Rimi Yokota - 5/80One of my rules for making this set is I tried to get at least 1 trios match for each year. I'd be surprised if anyone picked one of them as their favourite match (though I've been surprised before), they're more used to build towards a blowoff/give the top stars something to do in betwee...2025

It was always being considered, but I'd made myself a rule to keep each volume to under 4 hours and this ended up being cut because it doesn't really link up with the res...2025
