Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling‘s Yuki Kamifuku successfully captured the VPW Women’s Championship – the first singles championship for women in Vietnam.

At VPW Saigon Slam this past May 4th, Singapore’s Alexis Lee competed against TJPW’s Yuki Kamifuku to crown the first ever Vietnam Pro Wrestling Women’s Champion. While both women pulled out all the stops to make history, it was Yuki who stood tall and victorious at the end of the night with the VPW Women’s Title.

On top of being the inaugural VPW Women’s Champion, she also currently holds Singapore Pro Wrestling’s Queen of Asia Championship, making her a double champion. Yuki also won the SPW Queen of Asia title from Alexis and has held it for 165 days and counting.

Vietnam Pro Wrestling also took to their official social media pages to celebrate the crowning of their first female wrestling champion.

SOME PEOPLE ASK, “DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE MAKING FOOLS OF YOURSELF TRYING TO BECOME VIETNAM'S FIRST WRESTLING PROMOTION?"

& WE SAY, “NO, WE ARE MAKING HISTORY.”
