Io making her debut in STARDOM
Io Shirai made her STARDOM debut in a tag match with Nanae Takahashi as her partner. They worked against Yoko Bito and Yuzuki Aikawa. Without a doubt, Io brings some legitimate acrobatic athleticim to STARDOM that was lacking before -- high-flying lucha libre stuff! And she brought some colorful new gear as well.
Here are some action photos from the incomparable Youji Kawauchi
