Biography

Kyōko Kimura (born March 19, 1977) is a Japanese retired professional wrestler and mixed martial artist. Throughout her 14-year career, she competed in Big Japan Pro-Wrestling (BJW), Ibuki, Ice Ribbon, JWP Joshi Puroresu, NEO Japan Ladies Pro-Wrestling and World Wonder Ring Stardom, among other promotions. She is best known for her Jamaican flag shirt and puffed afro that, at one point, stood roughly one foot tall, as well as her adeptness for deathmatches. She retired from professional wrestling in January 2017. Her daughter, Hana, was also an acclaimed wrestler until her sudden passing in 2020; Kimura has since focused on anti-bullying campaigning with the Japanese media and government, and holds an annual memorial event at Tokyo's Korakuen Hall in honor of Hana.
