A new occasional series where I will put up five things for
discussion. This is a not a best of list, its just five related
things and is no way borrowed/stolen/plagiarized from The
Guardian's Joy of Six Blog which is awesome;

KANA is without doubt the most controversial female wrestler in
the world today. Not content to sit back and be a passive
wrestler, everything she does has aggression in mind. The
current JWP Openweight Champion began the year by writing her
Manifesto for Joshi which extolled the virtues of being stiff
and trying to make the action as realistic as possible. She
promptly went unbooked before going into JWP as a free agent and
taking the most prestigious singles title in Joshi. As Eric
Bischoff once said Controversy Creates Cash, and KANA is a
living breathing example of that.
1. Rookie Snug

As a rookie KANA got a rep as being overly stiff and was
repeatedly asked to calm down. Nowadays no one dare ask. KANA is
in red.
2. Stiff as they come

Of course when you have someone who hits back just as hard, she
ups her game here Kyoko Kimura and KANA have a high profile
brawl around the arena.
3. Booker

Of course she also promoters her own shows under the TEAM KANA
Banner, her booking style is pretty unique favoring the
realistic shoot approach of the old UWF. Here AKINO Chihiro
Oikawa vs Kana Nanae Takahashi in a mat based tension builder.
4. One of the guys

Here she gets serious as the only female competitor in the DDT
Ironman Hardcore Title battle royal.
5. Hardcore Legends

Back in the days of TAJIRI's SMASH promotion, KANA was the
Diva's champion and main event draw, when a threat to the
promotion came from Akira's heel stable. KANA and TAJIRI banded
together in old school style and brought in the cavalry in the
shape of former ECW World Champion Mikey Whipwreck, barb wire
boards a plenty. Even the normally bare foot KANA pulls on the
shoto shoes for this one, though she did forgo on a t shirt.
Proper Hardcore.
