In 1989, Nagayo was forced into retirement by AJW's mandatory age limit, and took about five years off from the sport, before returning to the ring not only as a wrestler, but also as a promoter, creating the promotion known as GAEA Japan, where a good portion of her fellow AJW wrestlers and students would once again face off. She would continue the good times of 80's AJW and perhaps even go further, depending on who you ask. In 2005, the promotion closed along with her full-time career, and Nagayo became a trainer once more, before opening the independent promotion Marvelous in 2014, which has run shows in the Chiba prefecture ever since.

Nagayo did not have it easy getting into the business. She was at best an extra once she graduated from the AJW Dojo; only wrestling eight times total in 1980, and she cried after losing her first match, which earned her a scolding. But she never once gave up, and gained a hard-earned reputation of having hellacious fighting spirit underneath her small frame, even in defeat. Then, she ended up in the ring with Wrestling/LionessAsuka.
The both of them found that they had excellent chemistry with each other, and set about to become the Crush Gals. From there, both wrestlers' popularity exploded to the point they went from mere pro wrestlers to national celebrities; even ending up as pop singers for a time. The pinnacle of their fame came in the mid-80's against Wrestling/DumpMatsumoto and her Atrocious Alliance, where a series of high-profile matches that exploded in popularity, regularly capturing mindboggling 10.0 ratings from japanese TV. It would all culminate in 1986, where the Crush Gals would fail to beat the Alliance at Tag Team The Best, but she would individually defeat Matsumoto to the jubilation of her fans.
