Ganbare Pro Under The Silver Lake 2023 (8/6/2023)
Spirit of Ganbare World Openweight Championship: Isami Kodaka (c) vs. YuuRI
YuuRI has come so far since I last saw her. Although she is a women's wrestler, she was trained by TAKA Michinoku and her ring style has little to no trace of "joshi puroresu". This may have been a key factor in her ability to work so seamlessly with Isami Kodaka, who was also trained by TAKA Michinoku. K-DOJO's genealogy was all over this. Isami used a one-point strategy targeting the arm. It was so cool when he countered YuuRI's relentless kicks with an ankle lock that he used to transition to the injured arm. YuuRI's facial and body language was on point, and she had a full understanding of how to convey her emotions in 360 degrees. I was blown away by her performance. ****
