Manami Toyota Biography

Manami Toyota is one of the most popular and richest Professional Wrestler who was born on March 2, 1971 in Masuda, Shimane Prefecture, Japan. Manami Toyota (Li Zhen Nai Mei, Toyota Manami) is a retired professional wrestler best known for her work in the All Japan Women’s Pro- Wrestling promotion.

Dreamslam II saw Toyota and Yamada face off against JWP Joshi Puroresu’s Kansai, Ozaki and another highly rated encounter of two of three waterfalls. However, Toyota and Yamada lost this time and Kansai, Ozaki took revenge. The feud ended at AJW’s St. Battle Final on December 6, 1993 where Toyota and Yamada regained the title of tag champions.

The following month, Toyota lost the WWWA Championship to former champion Aja Kong, on June 27. Toyota soon recovered from the loss. In 1995, she won the AJW Grand Prix tournament, securing her position as the number one contender for the WWWA Championship. Before she received her title opportunity, she faced Akira Hokuto at AJW’s Destiny show on September 2, 1995. On December 4, she finally received her title shot and defeated then-champion Dynamite Kansai to become a two-time world champion. Over the next 12 months, Toyota made three successful defenses of her WWWA title. In December 1996 she came up against long term rival Kyoko Inoue and lost in a match that saw the All Pacific and IWA Women’s World titles unified with the WWWA Title.

On November 28, 1998, Toyota faced the legendary Chigusa Nagayo in a one-time- only legends bout that saw arguably the two best female wrestlers ever go at it. Nagayo came out victorious in a 15-minute match. Toyota was brought in by Aja Kong to Chigusa Nagayo’s Gaea Japan wrestling group. She feuded with her old partner Toshiyo Yamada, as well as Dynamite Kansai. She competed there from 2002 to 2004 before moving on. Toyota put her wrestler career on hiatus after her August 2007 Tribute Show, where she wrestled in every match. She returned to action in the following year. On a Wrestling Observer poll taken on March 20, 2009, Toyota was voted as the greatest female wrestler of all time, garnering 31% of the vote.

The singles feud continued, but it was not over. It reached its climax in a Hair vs. Hair match. It was dramatic due to the events that took place after the match ended. Even though Toyota had won the match she didn’t want Yamada to have her head shaved. She was forced to be restrained by four prelim girls who finally forced Yamada back on the mat. Yamada requested that her head be shaved in accordance with the match conditions and she accepted the stipulation. The two stars teamed up again soon after the match to win their first WWWA world tag team championship in March 1992. They defeated Jungle Jack (Aja Kong, Bison Kimura) in Tokyo. Yamada and Toyota defended their WWWA Tag Team titles in AJW’s Dreamrush on November 26 against Dynamite Kansai (Mayumi Ozaki) in a 2/3 Falls match. Dave Meltzer, Wrestling Observer Newsletter, rated Yamada 5 Stars. Toyota won the IWA Singles Championship by beating Kyoko Inoue in Yokohama on April 25, 1995. Over the next three years, Toyota held that title eight times before being defeated by Reggie Bennett. Toyota’s talent was being described as one of the greatest wrestlers around at the time.

She was teamed with Mima Shimoda to form the Tokyo Sweethearts and defeated Etsuko Mita, Toshiyo Yamada in an intense match that almost stole the card from the older veterans. Toyota was a star with her flashy moves and fast tags.

She then vacated it on September 1. She challenged Bison Kimura to the All Pacific Championship in Tokyo on October 7, 1990. She was victorious. She lost to Suzuka Minami, March 17, 1991.

On August 24, 1994 Toyota once again squared off against Kyoko Inoue and defeated her to unify the IWA and All Pacific Singles Championships. Toyota’s run with the two titles was not to last long. On October 9, Inoue gained a measure of revenge against Toyota, as Kyoko and her partner Takako Inoue (no relation) won the WWWA Tag Team Championship from Toyota and Yamada. Toyota then vacated her All Pacific Championship, prior to her first WWWA Heavyweight Championship match against the monstrous Aja Kong at AJW’s Queendom III show, on March 26, 1995. The match saw Toyota reach the summit of AJW when she won and became the 39th WWWA World Single Champion. On May 7, Toyota defended her crown against arch-rival Kyoko Inoue at the Korakuen Hall, where the two fought to a 60-minute time limit draw. Despite piledrivers on the floor, German suplexes off the top rope, and multiple finishers, neither combatant was able to secure outright victory. Nonetheless, Toyota retained, and the match was voted Match of the Year for 1995 in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Manami Toyota is also the only woman to have competed in 14 matches that were given a 5-Star rating by the Wrestling Observer.
