I remember when around 2010 we were like 200 people at best who follower joshi outside Japan, then some japanese girls started to appear in WWE and a bunch of white american virgins who dream of an asian gf started to coom on joshi girls and now the business is starting to get hot and maybe we will ever se another boom like in the 90s
I was suck a big fan of her work
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayumi_KuriharaThe best joshi wrestler in the worst period, tragic career not only because lasted few years until injuries forced an early retirement but because the lack of talent and booking was a problem, 2005-2015 is the dark era of joshi, business was terrible, lack of shows, the only promotion who did few shows per year were all controlled by the old hags of the 90s who mostly booked their trainee, the only way to survive for freelancers was to work for everyone but that means rarely getting a belt or being put over, the old AJPW star wins in the main even with a 25 minutes match and the freelancer gets 10 minutes in the mid card and is not allowed to shine to not make the star look bad, still the talent was there, Steve Corino gave her the nickname Kawada girl because like Toshiaki Kawada she hits hard and ask to be hit even harder, also great babyface seller for fiery comebacks
Her last match I think has the most ribbon thrown to a wrestler I ever seen
