Known members

Yoko Harmageddon

Yoko Harmageddon[2] (ハルマゲドン陽子 Harumagedon Yōko?), real name Yoko Harumage (春髷 陽子 Harumage Yōko?), also known as the "Demon Coach Yoko" (鬼コーチ陽子), is IJWPW's representantive, a heavyset woman often seen carrying a shinai (bamboo training sword) who used to be a famous wrestler herself. She was forced to retire years ago due to hurting her neck and waist in a match against Black Widow.[1] In the Street Fighter Alpha series she appears in some of R. Mika's victory animations.

Harmageddon also writes Mika a letter encouraging her to press on towards her wrestling career with confidence, enduring the hardships that continue to come her way just as Yoko did. Yoko reveals that she had a wrestling colleague who talked with the same brusque mannerisms as Mika. Her nickname is simply "Frisky".

Yoko's first name in kanji means roughly "bright child" and is cosmetically identical to the kanji combo for "proton", read as "yoshi" instead of "youko".

Sunrise Nishisenba

Sunrise Nishisenba (サンライズ西船場?) is an ace wrestler from IJWPW that Harmageddon had invited to join. She was notoriously clumsy in her debut. As her chokehold is weak, she prefers to use brute force and throwing techniques. Her special move is the Lariat Tequila Sunset (ラリアット・テキーラ・サンセット).

Maple Storm

Maple Storm (メイプル・ストーム?) is a IJWPW rookie. Despite being new to wrestling, she is a former athlete that was part of a women's football team in Canada and participated in the professional league, but the team was disbanded after a scandal with the coach. After watching a Japanese DVD with Harmageddon Yoko, she was impressed with her and decided to join the IJWPW. She is still studying Japanese and became good friends with Nadeshiko. Her special move is a strong tackle named Klondike Gold Rush (クロンダイク・ゴールドラッシュ).

Raika

Raika (雷華? meaning "Thunder Flower") is IJWPW's tag team champion, along with her sister Fuka, who are known as the Furai Shimai (風雷姉妹, "Wind-Thunder Sisters"). She has high stamina and jumping ability due to training at high altitudes.

Raika can speak Japanese, English, Korean and Spanish and has deep ties with South American and North American organizations. Her special moves are "Denkō Enzuigiri" (電光延髄斬り, "Lightning Medullary Slash") and "Nadare-shiki Reverse DDT Raijū" (雪崩式リバースDDT 雷獣).

Fuka

Fuka (風華? meaning "Wind Flower") is IJWPW's tag team champion, along with her sister Raika. She trained in Mexico for six months and isn't good at learning other languages. Her special move is Chōjin Fūshagatame (超人風車固め).

Vivian Nishiki

Vivian Nishiki (ビビアン西木?) is a remarkably conspicuous gimmick-based wrestler who likes strange things. Making full use of foul play and rough fighting, she defended IJPWP's championship three times. Despite her strangeness, she is quite popular. Her special move is continuously hitting the opponent with a barbwired bat. Her father plays an active part in CWA.

Pepe Ishiwata

Pepe Ishiwata (ペペ石渡?) is a masked and painted fighter that keeps her identity secret. She used to live with her Hawaii-born grandmother, but moved to Japan and joined IJWPW. Despite her short size and rudeness, she is a skilled wrestler with great wrestling techniques. Her special move is the drop kick Shock Cone (ショックコーン). She also has a powerful back throw.
