Join hosts Justin Knipper and Fumi Saito on the final episode of their mini-series exploring the rich history of Joshi Pro Wrestling, or women's wrestling, in Japan. In this episode, they delve into the legendary 1993 Dream Slam match between Akira Hokuto and Shinobu Kandori, a pivotal event that marked the peak of the women's wrestling boom in Japan.
Discover the intense rivalries between iconic groups like All Japan Women, LLPW, and JWP during the early 90s. The episode also covers the return of wrestling legends Chigusa Nagayo and Lioness Asuka, and the launch of Gaia Japan, a new wrestling promotion that further enriched the women's wrestling scene.
The discussion takes a deep dive into the eventual decline of All Japan Women and its transformation into several splinter groups, including Arsion, NEO Ladies, and Stardom. The hosts also address the challenges faced during the "dark ages" of Joshi Pro Wrestling and the subsequent revival leading into the modern era.
Through this comprehensive exploration, listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the evolution of women's wrestling in Japan, its cultural impact, and the enduring legacy of its pioneering figures.
