Fuuka in Korean train wreck

It came to my attention that there was a big show in Seoul, South Korea the other day and a couple of joshi wrestlers were involved. The show was promoted by the New Korea Professional Wrestling Association (NKPWA) on Mar. 21 and Jimmy Suzuki arranged for some Japanese wrestlers to appear on the show. It's no big deal except that I know that they usually broadcast these shows live in Korea so I figured the women's match on the show would already be on Youtube...and so it is. The big deal in this match is the pro wrestling debut of Korean Ji-Hye Kim. Fuuka and KAZUKI went and it was a three way elimination match. Rossy Ogawa went too. By their very nature, three way matches tend to be terrible anyway and it's a real mistake to put a debuting wrestler in one. As you can tell by the pic I have posted of Kim, she's an idol style wrestler and she stands around a lot. So does Fuuka and I would imagine the three didn't have much time to practice together. KAZUKI isn't someone I would ask to be the ring general in something like this. Kim eliminates KAZUKI with an ugly looking Swanton. Then the ending of the match was completely botched by both wrestlers but Kim really seems clueless. The funniest part is the fans booing when Fuuka & KAZUKI were double teaming Kim. When was the last time Fuuka was booed? Enjoy the match.
