Timeline

Tomoko Kitamura (北村 智子) is a Japanese retired professional wrestler better known by her ring name Lioness Asuka (ライオネス 飛鳥).

1980

She was one half of the Crush Gals, along with Chigusa Nagayo, who are known for their mainstream popularity in the 1980s, and for being one of the most successful women's tag teams of all time.

Asuka joined All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling (AJW) in 1980 and had her professional debut on May 10 of that year.

In the late 1980s, Crush Gals broke up, after which Asuka began a lengthy feud with Chigusa Nagayo.

On February 26, Asuka and Nagayo clashed in a #1 Contender's Match for the WWWA World Single Championship.

The match went to a 30-minute draw.

1982

She was an immediate success, winning her first title, the AJW Junior Championship, the following year, and the AJW Championship in 1982.

1983

On January 4, 1983, Asuka was matched against her future partner and one half of the future Crush Gals, Chigusa Nagayo.

They had a standout performance and got a good reaction, which lead to them becoming partners.

The Crush Gals name was created from a combination of a nickname of Akira Maeda and a Japanese magazine called Gals.

The Crush Gals then wrestled to another 60 minute draw against Jaguar Yokota and Devil Masami in June to a crowd of 5,000 fans.

The Crush Gals released their first music single on August 21, called Bible of Fire, eventually selling over 100,000 copies.

On August 25, the Crush Gals defeated their rivals, the Dynamite Girls, to capture the WWWA World Tag Team Championship.

1985

In 1985, the Crush Gals began a rivalry with Dump Matsumoto's heel stable, the Atrocious Alliance.

On February 25, Matsumoto and Crane Yu defeated the Crush Gals for the WWWA World Tag Team Championship.

1988

Asuka won the WWWA World Single Championship on August 25, 1988 by defeating Nagayo, but immediately vacated it due to Nagayo's arm injury.

1989

Asuka and Nagayo's feud culminated in another match for the WWWA World Single Championship in 1989, which Asuka won.

Asuka retired later that year.

1994

Asuka came out of retirement on November 20, 1994, and formed the Rideen Array, a faction consisting of fellow freelance wrestlers Jaguar Yokota and Bison Kimura.

She subsequently wrestled for many of the new women's promotions that arose at that time, such as Jd' and Arsion.

1995

She made one appearance for the WWF at the 1995 Survivor Series, teaming with Bertha Faye, Aja Kong, and Tomoko Watanabe.

They defeated the team of Alundra Blayze, Kyoko Inoue, Sakie Hasegawa and Chaparita Asari.

1998

In 1998, she made a significant move when she joined GAEA Japan, the promotion run by her former partner, Nagayo.

Asuka began her GAEA career as a top heel, feuding with Nagayo, and, in one storyline, winning control of the organization from her and eventually creating the Super Star Unit (SSU), a faction composed of veteran stars such as Akira Hokuto, Aja Kong, and Las Cachorras Orientales, among others.

1999

However, near the end of 1999, Nagayo and Asuka united against a common rival, the Mayumi Ozaki-led faction Team Nostradamus, and, the next spring, reformed Crush Gals.

2000

The storyline was huge news in Japan, and GAEA's show of May 14, 2000, featuring the debut of the reunited team, now called Crush 2000, was the biggest in the promotion's history.

2004

Due to a neck injury, Asuka announced her retirement on November 3, 2004.

2005

Her retirement was made official on April 3, 2005, where she and Chigusa Nagayo teamed up for the last time to defeat Chikayo Nagashima and Sugar Sato at GAEA's tenth anniversary show.
