Chigusa Nagayo stands as one of the most influential figures in professional wrestling history. Born in Omura, Nagasaki, Japan, she rose to fame in the 1980s as one half of the legendary Crush Gals, igniting a cultural phenomenon in Japanese pro wrestling. After capturing multiple titles, including the WWWA and AAAW Championships, Nagayo transitioned into leadership — founding Marvelous That’s Women Pro Wrestling in 2014 to train and spotlight the next generation. Her influence stretches from Tokyo to the Bay Area, where her presence continues to inspire across San Francisco’s pro wrestling scene. A pioneer, mentor, and icon.
