Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling

History
Up until 1986, AJW had been the only major women's wrestling joshi puroresu promotion in Japan. Then, on August 17, 1986, Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling (JWP) was started, by former AJW stars Jackie Sato and Nancy Kumi, and brought in judo practioner Shinobu Kandori as well as boxer Rumi Kazama and others. In 1992, internal pressure forced the promotion split in two with the formation of LLPW. JWP was very active during the interpromotional wars of 1993, having high profile matches against AJW including the legendary matches between Mayumi Ozaki & Dynamite Kansai against Manami Toyota & Toshiyo Yamada held in AJW as well as the Thunder Queens series held in JWP.
