TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE FOURTH MEETING”, 06/06/2013
Shibuya Deseo

1. KANNA Vs Shoko Nakajima
2. Miyu Yamashita Vs Chikage Kiba

After defeating KANNA at the last event, Chikage Kiba wants to become the ace of Tokyo Joshi Pro by beating Miyu Yamashita. Miyu is currently undefeated with a record of two wins and one draw.

Shoko Nakajima is the newest trainee for Tokyo Joshi Pro. Nakajima is from Niigata and was born on 19th July, 1991. She is 147cm high, has blood type A, likes theatre and comedy and is nicknamed Nakaji. Nakajima only began watching live wrestling a while ago and was inspired to become one because she enjoys to perform in front of an audience. Although she is new to wrestling, her father is a fan so she aims to be like her father’s favourite wrestler Chaparrita ASARI. Her debut match against KANNA will only be a three minute exhibition bout and she may change her name and ring gear when she has her first official match.
