    Newbie Question...

    I was just curious as to who the top Joshi athletes are? I have not seen any Joshi wrestling and wanted to know if I were to get some tapes which athletes should I look for
    Have you heard? There's a new revolution, gotta spread the word, too much confusion.

    If you want high-flying arial tactic-wresters you can try:
    Ayako Hamada
    Manami Toyota
    Chaparita ASARI
    The Jumping Bomb Angels

    Other good womens wrestlers that don't fly as much are:
    Aja Kong
    Takako Inoue
    Mariko Yoshida
    Shinobu Kandori
    Akira Hokuto
    Yumiko Hotta

    Ganso speaks the truth!

    For any beginning Joshi enthusiast, I recommend getting shows from the Joshi boom of 1993. There are some truly spectacular matches from:

    Akira Hokuto (my personal favorite)
    Manami Toyota
    Bull Nakano
    Double Inoues (Takako & Kyoko Inoue)
    Sakie Hasegawa
    Megumi Kudo
    Plum Mariko (R.I.P.)

    For something more current, you can't go wrong with ARSION (which seems to be most everyone's favorite joshi fed)

    But for something current (outside of ARSION), I recommend find some of the following's matches:

    The Bloody
    Mayumi Ozaki
    Kaoru Ito

    If you're looking for some truly older school stuff, try checking out:

    Beauty Pair
    Jumping Bomb Angles
    Dump Matsumoto vs. Chigusa Nagayo matches

    But most importantly, GET THE AJW DREAMSLAM TAPES!!! It is the greatest Joshi event in history!

    Momoe Nakanishi is currently the best athlete in the business IMO.

    One of my favorites is Megumi Kudo. The could wrestle, work one hell of a lucharesu match, and can work a watchable garbage match. It's a shame she spent so much of her career in FMW, otherwise she would have been wrestling longer.
