[Michinoku Pro][UPDATE] AEW star and Japanese legend Emi Sakura returns at the 6/04/21 Tokyo event!

Previously appearing at 2020 Tokyo Tournament-Struggle for Power in December, Emi Sakura will be making her return to Michinoku Pro at 2021 Tokyo Tournament-One Sword Cut on June 4 at the Korakuen Hall (6:00 PM start time). A legend of the ring, she is currently best known for her appearances in AEW, a United States-based company which presents a program on national TV every week.

Emi Sakura participated in an AEW Women's World Championship Eliminator Tournament in February, making it to the semi-finals.

Sakura was also the winner of the JWP Best Bout Award in 2012.



Along with having a greatly successful career as a wrestler, Emi Sakura is also an accomplished trainer. She has been responsible for launching the careers of over 40 wrestlers, the biggest achievers being current AEW Women's Champion Hikaru Shida and former AEW Women's Champion Riho. In 2019, Sakura competed with Riho in a match for the Championship at an AEW PPV event.

Emi Sakura will be returning to the Korakuen Hall on June 4 with wrestlers from Gatoh Move, a Thailand-based promotion that she is the founder of and where she has held the Asia Dream Tag Team Championship.
