>Yumoto joined AKB48 as a 15th generation member in 2013. In 2017, she appeared in the TV drama "Tofu Pro Wrestling," which was broadcast on the TV Asahi network, playing the role of a professional wrestler with the ring name "Komanechi Yumoto." After graduating from the group in 2023, she has been expanding her activities, focusing on stage performances and other projects.
>During a press conference held in Tokyo, Yumoto revealed that her entry into professional wrestling was sparked by her collaboration with Nao Kakuta (36), a member of Tokyo Joshi, in a stage performance in December of last year. She shared, "It all started with a casual conversation like 'I used to do Tofu Pro Wrestling,' and we talked a lot about wrestling. After being invited by Nao-san, I decided to take on the challenge."
>The opponent is undecided, but it has been decided that Yumoto and Kakuta will form a team. Yumoto expressed confidence, stating, "I'm mainly focusing on basic training from the New Year, including building my body and practicing defensive moves. I'm really looking forward to the match with Nao-san." Kakuta also called out, saying, "She has tremendous hidden potential. I hope you all look forward to seeing us fight together."
>Since May 2021, Yuki Arai (25) from the same 48 group "SKE48" has been participating in Tokyo Joshi. In January of this year, she won the International Princess Championship and has been actively contributing as one of the key players.
>Yumoto showed respect for Arai, stating, "Arai-san is a champion. I haven't reached that level yet, so I respect her as a senior." While paying tribute to the champion, she expressed her aspirations, "In pursuing professional wrestling, my biggest goal is to give courage to those who are watching. There are many fans who support and cheer for my growth, so I hope people see that aspect." It will be a debut match worth watching.
Nao-san... I kneel
