Thankfully, Nyla has NOT gotten over, even recently losing decisively to the five-foot sub-100-pound Japanese wrestler Riho--granted, those two had their best matches against each other. Seriously, surprising chemistry.
Riho's fucking awesome.
She is. Japan is a haven for pro wrestling. I’m so glad to see Great Muta go into hall of fame. Also it’s weird how Hogan did technical wrestling in Japan
"Every move you love was invented by a joshi 20 years prior."
All because Mildred Burke saw Moolah take over the American women's wrestling scene, took her skills to Japan, and taught them how to actually wrestle.
Obligatory "fuck Moolah."
Yea I’ve come to that conclusion. Female wrestling there is amazing. So Japan was doing the high flying stuff even before Mexico?
I'm fairly sure Mexico was doing it first, though the likes of Jushin Thunder Liger (inventor of the Shooting Star Press) certainly innovated.
I still can't believe his gimmick was solely to promote a then-currently-airing anime, yet wound up having a 35-year career and becoming one of the greatest to ever set foot in the ring. And made Go Nagai more money than he ever did in 50+ years of drawing manga, since half of Liger's merch royalties go to him.
