All Japan Women at Korakuen Hall

This was Zenjo's year-end show and Korakuen was packed. The show featured a rookie tournament, an All-Japan Singles Title Match and was supposed to feature a continuation of the feud between LCO and Ito/Watanabe.

Turns out for whatever reason, I didn't get many pictures from this show. In fact, of the 5 rookie tournament matches, this was the only picture I got.

Tomoko Morii celebrates winning the Rookie Tournament.

Kumiko Maekawa vs Mika Nishio
	I think Nishio had a pretty good idea what to expect.
	To her credit, Nishio came out strong. She soon was overpowered.
	She showed a lot of heart but eventually fell to Maekawa through a brutal kick to the throat.

Kayoko Haruyama vs Miyuki Fujii
	This was a match for the All-Japan Singles Title. This turned out to be the best match of the show, I've never seen either one better.
	But unfortunately, once again, I didn't take many pictures of this match. And those I did came out poorly.

Yumiko Hotta/Takako Inoue/Manami Toyota vs Kayo Noumi/Nanae Takahashi/Momoe Nakanishi
	Hotta showed off her new buzzcut, courtesy of losing her hair vs hair match to Ito. Takako in her swank cowboy outfit.
	Kiss no Sekai gets psyched up.
	Big time streamer displays for all 6 wrestlers.
	Toyota has experienced a Renaissance this year, and that's translated into her having more fun...
	And kickin more ass, as in Noumi here.
	Momoe tried to turn the tide for her team.
	Then Noumi got in the act.
	Toyota was sly as her new found sneaky self.
	Then Nanae took over and managed to get the momentum turned to her team.
	It seemed like the youngsters were going to pick up the win...
	But Toyota turned it all around and ended up dropping Noumi on her head for the win.

Etsuko Mita/Mima Shimoda vs Tomoko Watanabe
	This was scheduled to be a resumption of one of the greatest wrestling feuds of all time: Watanabe/Ito and Mita/Shimoda. However, Ito came out to say she couldn't wrestle due to injury.
	Well, Mita and Shimoda came out to call bullshit on that, and taunt Ito.
	Nabe came storming out to stick up for her teammate and ended up getting snuck by a rampaging Shimoda.
	This was a severe mismatch as LCO went about taking Nabe apart.
	In one of the great accidents in wrestling history, Shimoda was climbing up to deliver the drop kick to Nabe while Mita was going to crack her with a chair. But instead, Mita clocked Shimoda dead-on on the backswing. Shimoda somehow managed to fight through the cobwebs to finish the move.
	Watanabe managed to throw together a late comeback, taking it to both Mita and Shimoda.
	But eventually the numbers caught up to Nabe and she ended up getting pinned.
	After the show was over, I got a shot of all the streamers stuffed under the ring.
