Big win for Kyoko Kimura at Ibuki's 1st Anniversary show

Mariko Yoshida's Ibuki had its first anniversary show on July 16 at Shinjuku FACE. A couple of rookies debuted. It was Yoshida trainee Hiroyo Matsumoto vs Kaoru Ito trainee Hanako Kobayashi. Matsumoto won the match. Bambi had a rough day after Kaoru Ito used the diving footstomp on her. The main event had Mariko Yoshida against Kyoko Kimura in a 2 of 3 falls match. Kimura got the upset win with her Big Boots finisher. This could be the start of some sort of push for Kimura but time will tell if it sticks. It looks like this Jungle Girl gimmick is finally working for her. There's been some discussion about that big afro of hers. She did change to dreadlocks a while back but it looks like she brought back the afro about a month ago. Who knows? She might change it again. I'll let the fashion consultants deal with it.
