Japan Grand Prix ’97 League Bout: Watanabe vs. Maekawa.  ***1/4

Japan Grand Prix ’97 League Bout: Toyota vs. Ito. This was a great match that may have been the best women’s match of 1997. Fast-paced with lots
of creative spots. Tons of high spots and near falls. ****1/2

Las Cachorras Orientales (Shimoda & Mita) vs. Aja & Kyoko. Tremendous brawl. Maybe the best garbage style match I have ever seen because there was really good wrestling to go along with all the gimmick spots and there wasn’t all the typical flaws of garbage matches. It’s incredible that Shimoda & Mita could be this good at this style so soon after they turned heel. ****1/2

Chaparita ASARI & Yuka Shiina & Yumi Fukawa vs. Misae Genki & Tanny Mouse & Momoe Nakanishi.

Etsuko Mita & Saya Endo vs. Yumiko Hotta & Yoshiko Tamura. Good match though it totally lacked heat.

Japan Grand Prix '97 League Bout: Watanabe vs. Ito.

Japan Grand Prix '97 League Bout: Toyota vs. Mima.

Super Maniacs Never Ending Bout: Aja vs. Kyoko. The beginning was nothing special, but the 2nd half was great with all the big spots back and forth for great false finishes that were well received. Stiff as hell, particularly Aja's last uraken. ****

WCW Cruiserweight Title: Tamura vs. Saya. Pretty good match, that was a good step forward for these two.

All Pacific Title Decision Match: Watanabe vs. Ito. Very good match that was a bit better than their 8/10 match because the execution was more precise.

Toyota & Kyoko vs. Cachoras. Toyota workrate style match. Very exciting with lots of choice high spots. ****.

Force-4 Scramble Bout Zenjo Special: Kaoru Ito & Emi Motokawa (IWA Japan) & Miyuki Fujii & Sachie Nishibori vs. Yumiko Hotta & Kumiko Maekawa & Miho Wakizawa & Kayo Noumi. This was a series of singles bouts with a five minute time limit. A draw eliminates both wrestlers. The losing team is the one who has no wrestlers left.  **3/4

Eagle Sawai & Sayori Okino (LLPW team) vs. Takako Inoue & Momoe Nakanishi. Fast-paced match. Michiko Nagashima interfered at will. Very pro-AJW crowd. Momoe was by far the best in the match. Momoe juiced.  ***1/4

Toshiyo Yamada (GAEA) vs. Kyoko Inoue (Neo Ladies).  **

AJW TV 4/19/98

I thought this was a really cool program because not only did they show highlights of some of the best and most memorable women’s shows and matches ever, but they also had highlight of the stars of the 1970's such as Jumbo Miyamoto & Mach Fumiake who I had never seen before. This is one of those tapes that the more you know about the history of AJW, the more you will appreciate it, but if you are new to women’s wrestling then I definitely wouldn’t get this because it might be too hard to follow.

ZAP I vs. Kayo Noumi.  **

Takako Inoue & The Goddess Chikako Shiratori vs. Yumiko Hotta & Miyuki Fujii. *1/2

Tag League The Best Koshikisen, WWWA Sekai Tag Chosensha Ketteisen: Tomoko Watanabe & Kumiko Maekawa vs. Momoe Nakanishi & Nanae Takahashi.  ***

Fighting English. MihoKayo and NanaMomo get an English lesson. The way this went was they took a phrase they had said in a match (or in Noumi's case a commercial) and asked them to say it in English. When they couldn't do it, the teacher would have them read the english expression. This is funny, especially when they all say "I'll crush every old hag!" Also, at one point the teacher asked Momoe where she was from and she said "Dragon suplex."
