Awesome / Manami Toyota

• You could practically list her entire career, but highlights include:
  • Toyota and Mima Shimoda vs. Toshiyo Yamada and Etsuko Mita at Wrestle Marinepiad 1989
  • Toyota vs Yamada Hair vs. Hair
  • Toyota & Yamada vs. Dynamite Kansai and Mayumi Ozaki (Wrestling Observer Newsletter Match of the Year 1993)
  • Toyota vs. Kyoko Inoue (Wrestling Observer Match of the Year 1995)
• She's the only woman to win the Wrestling Observer Newsletter's Most Outstanding Wrestler award, having won it in 1995.
• While not everyone agrees that his word is gospel, it's still recognized that having even one your matches earn a 5-star rating from Dave Meltzer is high praise indeed. Do you know how many 5-star ratings Manami Toyota earned during her career? 13 over the space of the 5 years from 1991 to 1995. This makes her tied for ninth place (with Kota Ibushi) on the all-time list.
