>A new warrior is born in the women's professional wrestling organization "Stardom."
>Before the start of the TKP Garden City Chiba tournament on the 10th, Matoi (19), who will be making her debut at "NEW BLOOD WEST 2" (16th, Azalea Taisho Hall, Osaka), appeared in the ring. "I'll do my best to grow step by step," she said with a nervous look on her face.
>Matoi, who is 155 cm tall and weighs 56.5 kg, was born on June 22, 2005 in Chiba Prefecture. Influenced by her older brother, she began learning judo at a young age, and competed in the prefectural tournament in the 52 kg class in junior high and high school. Influenced by her father, she became interested in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, and after graduating from high school, she joined Stardom in April of this year. Her special skills are headsprings and handsprings, and she says she was good at footwork during her judo days.
>It was announced that her wish would be granted and she would face fellow judo athlete Hanan in her debut match. Hanan appeared in the ring and cheered her on, saying, "This is my first time to face someone like you in my debut match! This is the one and only debut match of your life, so let's make it a good match. I look forward to it." She smiled and shook hands with her.
>Matoi, who named Syuri and Starlight Kid as the wrestlers she admires, said, "I want to become a wrestler who can take joint locks, is strong and has speed. First I'll aim for the Future (championship), and eventually I want to wear the red belt (world championship) in the future."
>Matoi's official ring name has yet to be decided. At the Tokyo Korakuen Hall event on the 11th, she will be holding a public sparring session while the hall is open. Attention is focused on this newcomer, who will be the first to debut since Rian in March of this year.
