So I was browsing Youtube and while trying to find a Mimi Hagiwara wrestling bout that 1. I hadn't see and 2. had decent video quality I stumbled across an oddity.
In case you don't know who Mimi Hagiwara is, she was a big Women's Wrestling star in the late 70s/ early 80 and has a good claim to being the most gorgeous Joshi Puroresu star of her era.
Anyway, back to the point. While Japanese women wrestlers are renowned for working a hard-hitting, fast paced style they also seem to happily adapt to comedy matches against men, which is what we have here. Mimi, along with fellow AJW stars, Noriyo Tateno, Yukari Omori and Jaguar Yokota team up for a 4 on 4 match against a team of comedians.
It gets very silly from the start although I'm happy to say the blokes aren't as gropey as they sometimes get.
See what you think:
