TOKYO JOSHI PRO “JURIA NAGANO GRADUATION”, 13/04/2024
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
It was announced today that Juria Nagano will be graduating from Tokyo Joshi Pro this April. She broke this news with Tetsuya Koda at a press conference earlier today. Nagano explained the reason for her graduation is so she can put more effort into her work in the entertainment industry while keeping her other career as a nurse. If she were to continue pro wrestling at this rate she would only be able to do it half-heartedly due to her busy schedule. She first considered making her decision when she broke a bone in her hand while wrestling last January and was unable to work for 6 months. There have been tough times when she wanted to give up wrestling sooner but she enjoyed being in the ring and thinks TJPW was a great environment for her.
Nagano’s graduation is going to be a complete exit from pro wrestling. She is calling it a graduation rather than a retirement because she’s seen other TJPW wrestlers “graduate” when they quit pro wrestling and TJPW is the only wrestling she knows. Her final match will be on 13th April. Until then she wants to keep fighting until she burns out. In her brief time as a wrestler she has not won a championship so her goal now is to win a title with her tag team partner Moka Miyamoto. For that reason Shinken Kusho will be entering the Max Heart Tournament beginning next month. She would also like to win a singles match, which she has not accomplished yet. Koda asked Nagano if she can still support TJPW after she graduates. She promised she will as a fan.
