SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES, in cooperation with S-Ovation Co. Ltd. and Ring Stars, is proud to announce the United States return of two of the top current generation joshi stars, Ayumi Kurihara and Tomoka Nakagawa! Both women have been added to the SHIMMER Volumes 37-40 tapings, which will take place on Saturday & Sunday, March 26th & 27th, 2011 at the Berwyn Eagles Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL, just outside Chicago!
Rivals worldwide, Ayumi Kurihara and Tomoka Nakagawa debuted in SHIMMER action back on Volume 29 as opponents of one another, and in many ways stole the show that day. Ayumi went on to battle numerous SHIMMER originals in subsequent outings, including Nikki Roxx, Sara Del Rey, and Daizee Haze, scoring the necessary victories to earn her first U.S. main event spot on Volume 34 against Madison Eagles.
Kurihara closed her 2010 with great success in Japan, making history by defeating Yoshiko Tamura on the final event promoted by NEO, to become the last NEO singles and NWA Pacific Women's Champion. Without question, Ayumi is one of the women who will be a major player in women's professional wrestling on a global scale during the coming years. Ayumi will be back in SHIMMER action March 26th and 27th! Don't miss your chance to see her live at the Berwyn Eagles Club.
Tomoka Nakagawa, though one of the smallest wrestlers on the SHIMMER roster, has proven to the Berwyn fans to be one of the most diabolical rulebreakers on the planet. Nakagawa is not afraid to take liberties with the rules, both actions which may be frowned upon in the eyes of the SHIMMER referees, and oftentimes full blown illegal maneuvers, including her signature water to the eyes of her opponents. These tactics, in combination with Tomoka's vast array of lethal kicks and bridging fisherman suplex, have caught the attention of all of the athletes in the SHIMMER locker room.
Nakagawa has joined forces with international partner in crime Daizee Haze, forming what has thus far been a very successful tag team combination. With several new teams looking to make their mark during the March tapings in Berwyn, it would be no surprise to see Tomoka and Daizee continue their alliance and remain right in the thick of things in the SHIMMER tag team division.
Ayumi and Tomoka join previously announced talents SHIMMER Champion Madison Eagles, SHIMMER Tag Team Champions The Canadian Ninjas, "Your Soul's Tormentor" MsChif, Cheerleader Melissa, Daizee Haze, "The Queen of Wrestling" Sara Del Rey, "The Latina Sensation" Mercedes Martinez, Serena Deeb, Saraya Knight, Britani Knight, Hiroyo Matsumoto, and Misaki Ohata as those confirmed thus far for participation in the March 26th & 27th events.
