>The World & Wonder 2-Crown Championship (Ota-ku, Tokyo) on the 27th of the Women's Pro Wrestling "Stardom" event saw World Champion Tamu Nakano beat Wonder Champion Mina Shirakawa to become the second red and white 2-crown champion in history.
>It was the first time in four years and eight months since September 2018 that the two champions had fought for two championships, and after 17 minutes and 43 seconds of heated competition, Nakano became the first red and white champion since Mayu Iwatani in June 2005.
>After the match, the champion's face was swollen, and her right eye was almost completely shut. Despite this, Nakano's family was there to support him as he continued to fight. Nakano's parents visit big fights and tournaments held in his hometown of Aichi, and they keep in touch with each other.
>After five and a half years since joining Stardom in November 2005, Nakano was crowned the highest division champion for the first time on April 23 at the Yokohama event. Nakano said he shared his joy with his parents, "They said, 'I know you suffered a lot, but you did a great job. Congratulations! The red belt looks great on you. My mother's phone ring had a picture of Tamu with the red belt," she said tearfully.
>On April 15 at the Yoyogi tournament, Shirakawa and Waka Tsukiyama left the Cosmic Angels (Kozuen), which they had led, to form Club Venus. Although she was upset at the sudden departure of the members, she was inspired by her father's words to her.
>Looking back on those days, he said, "When I was feeling very down, my father said to me, 'I think the greatest achievement of a leader is how many leaders he has been able to nurture. He contacted me and said, 'You may not have time to rest, but take some time off,' and that encouraged me," he said.
>With the expectations of his parents on his shoulders, Nakano's new path as a double crown winner will be a remarkable counterattack.
