Description

One of the top gaijin stars during the Golden Age of Joshi wrestling Debbie Malenko, joins the show this week. She talks about getting into the business and then heading to Japan at just 19-years-old.

Malenko talks about being in the ring with the greats like Bull, Hokuto, Toyota, Aja and more.

As quickly as she ascended to the top of the Joshi world, her career would come to an end.

Debbie's story is unique and fascinating. Please have a listen. We could have talked to her for hours.

Also on the show:

We look ahead to shows this week in Japan, including a fun main event for SEAdLINNNG.

We also see where Joshi wrestlers are performing outside of Japan, including Yuu heading to Australia.
