CRUSH 2000 Comment at the back stage


Q: Could you please tell us about today?
Nagayo: Thank you so much for today. I thought we had been walking on the long road.
We were walking 3 kinds of road. 1st road is that we don't understand, 2nd road is that we helped each other and 3rd road is that we wanted each other.
So now we are together and it's very natural. Strange to say, we are a good pitcher and a good catcher. I can accept any kind of balls that Aska throws. And also she throws a ball as signed that I give. I'm very happy next to her now. I'm touched so.
The energy has already emptied as CRUSH 2000. So that's end.
Q: With whom will you fight at GAEA final show?
Nagayo: Whom am I going to fight with on 10th April? Lioness Aska. But she is back as Tomoko Kitamura from Lioness Aska as soon as she leaves this room.
Q: How do you feel after you finished the retirement match now?
Aska: Well, I thought that this match was final while I was waiting back stage.
I wasn't nervous yesterday. I spent time feeling calm as usual. But at the moment when I was going to the ring; I realized this show was really final and almost cried.
But I concentrated again and I got into the ring. When Chigusa shook hands with Sugar and Nagashima, she said to all of them, 'Let's enjoy, Guys!' I felt released from the nervous feeling by her words. I thought in my mind, ' Yes, let's enjoy!' I really enjoyed my last match, actually.
Q: Why did you do your retirement as CRUSH 2000?
Aska: Well, when Chigusa and I united CRUSH 2000, this unit hadn't figure out still.
I have been thinking when I retire it would be retiring as CRUSH 2000 naturally. To reunite CRUSH was to have responsibility for everything, lots of things we had to. But I'm wondering if I could do all that or not.
Actually we intended to give the baton to our juniors to progress Japanese female pro wrestling. So the reason why I did my retirement match as CRUSH 2000. I wanted to distinguish my pro wrestling career as not only myself but also CRUSH 2000. Regarding me personally, I've done good things, bad things including best things and the worst in the ring. So I have no regrets at all individually. I took part in Neo last week. At the moment I broke the desk, I thought this was the last time to use the desk and thought it was my guardian angel.
Perhaps you didn't know, there was Chigusa's autograph next to my eye catcher on the desk that I made last time.
Q: Do you plan to auction that desk?
Aska: If you find that desk, please! I have a financial problem a little. (Laugh)
But Chigusa and I are always close; she is next to me always, as she said.
I think we are eternal partners for each other in our lifetime. This relationship will never change. But truly, today was the last day when Chigusa was next to me in the ring. While I am thinking of that, I felt sad and I miss her a little.
I said that in the ring, I gave Chigusa e-mail yesterday. {I am calm strangely.
But if I get confusing, I'm sorry} and Chigusa sent it back immediately. {No problem. It's Ok. I will be next to you.} We have time when we avoid each other until now. We avoided those words in the e-mails that we exchanged yesterday. I was so happy that we could cherish each other now. Maybe we will be eternal partners in our lifetime. This relationship will never change.
Chigusa was in me; also I was in her as well. And she is in me and I am in her.
Q: You will be Tomoko Kitamura from tomorrow, won't you?
Aska: Yes, I will. But I have been living as Lioness Aska for a long time. I am called 'Kitamura' only at the hospital. (Laugh)
Q: Do you plan to organize pro wrestling show by yourself as a producer?
Aska: I don't know when. I must find good timing. I have a blue picture almost.
But while I'm planning on that, circumstances might change. I will let you know when I decide to organize the show. Actually it is a fact that I will have to do something.
Q: Do you want to have a show this year?
Aska: Yes, I do. I will have one this year, hopefully. Although CRUSH 2000 was sealed, there are lots of people who will come see female pro wrestling still.
So I told my juniors to hang in there instead of us. Also, I wish all press would support this industry kindly from now on.
I was helped a lot by all the press for the past 10 years. I mentioned my policy, my opinion,my hope, my obligation that I've thought since I became a freelance pro wrestler.
So, all the press reported these things by words and TV and so on to people. I really appreciate everything you've done for me. GAEA JAPAN will be closing down next Sunday. I think the remaining players really love pro wrestling so that something new will be born, something which will bring a plus to this industry.
Chigusa supported me very much today, and next I will ascertain her burden and grave duty of GAEA closing down and with her retirement out of the ring.
And I want to support her also out of the ring.
Thank you very much for everything today.
