This weekend is the return of SHIMMER – WOMEN ATHLETES to the Chicagoland area! SHIMMER is back at the Berwyn Eagles Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL this Saturday & Sunday, April 11th & 12th. Volumes 72-75 in the SHIMMER series will be filmed during the course of the weekend. Bell time on Saturday, April 11th is 2pm. Bell time on Sunday, April 12th is 1pm. The events are suitable for all ages.
This will be a very special SHIMMER weekend, as we celebrate the ten year career of TOMOKA NAKAGAWA! These will be Tomoka’s final matches before retiring from the ring. It means a lot to everyone in our locker room that, though she had her farewell match in Japan this past December, Tomoka decided that the final matches of her career will take place in the SHIMMER ring, at the Berwyn Eagles Club. For the occasion, several of Tomoka’s fellow wrestlers from Japan will also be in Berwyn for the events. Among those who will comprise the joshi group are former SHIMMER Tag Team Champions HIROYO MATSUMOTO & MISAKI OHATA, the legendary MAYUMI OZAKI, AKINO, YUMI OHKA, and the debuting KYOKO KIMURA. You never know who might show up at the Berwyn Eagles Club this weekend.
