For several years, Takako Inoue was one of the busiest freelance wrestlers in joshi puroresu. At the start of 2005, she decided to cut back on her wrestling schedule and announced that she would be working for LLPW exclusively. They were running about once a month at the time. She even closed her long running website. Takako considered starting her own promotion but decided against it. For 2005 and the first half of 2006, she worked only for LLPW. Then Kaoru Ito approached Takako about working as a trainer at the Kaoru Ito Professional Wrestling Classroom. This seemed to invigorate Takako and she started freelancing again last year.
Takako Inoue recently announced on her blog that the Dec. 14 Korakuen Hall LLPW show would be her final regular appearance for the company. She will continue to appear for them occasionally and other compnies but Kaoru Ito's dojo will be her home base for her wrestling activities. Her final LLPW match had Takako teaming with her old friend Harley Saito against Shinobu Kandori & Ito wrestler Ayako Sato. Takako won the match over Sato at 18:35. Afterwards, Takako received several gifts including flowers, bath oils, Godiva chocolates and other goodies. Then she went to work Sunday's Ito Dojo show. I don't know how active Takako will be in 2008. She usually posts her schedule on her blog. She does have her 20th anniversary coming up in Oct. 2008. She also continues to own her Lava-Tube yoga studio and writes a weekly yoga column for Daily Sports.
Other matches on the show had Sayuri Okino & Eiger over Obacchi Iizuka & Jumbo Hori at 10:05. Keep in mind that Iizuka does a grandmother gimmick and Hori really is a grandmother. In a Glamour Angels match, Sawaco defeated Jukka at 4:30 with a ballerina body hold. In what they called Francoise's Final Trial, Jaguar Yokota defeated Francoise at 8:25. In the main event, Yumiko Hotta and a masked wrestler called Blue Wolf defeated Norito Tateno & Mizuki Endo when Hotta pinned Endo at 14:08. I haven't seen any pics so I don't know anything about Blue Wolf. Takako Inoue is scheduled to appear on LLPW's next show Jan. 13 at Korakuen Hall.
