Breaking announcement from Tokyo Joshi Pro-Neko Haruna, who has been out most of the last 2+ years due to injuries, has left the promotion and will retire later this month. She is recovering from knee surgery in June and will not be able to compete again before retiring. The retirement ceremony will be held on 9/27 at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring in Tokyo as part of a scheduled TJPW event. That event is scheduled to be streamed live on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.
Haruna, 26, spent her entire career, almost 7 years, with TJPW and, at about 4’9″, was the shortest wrestler in the promotion (about 1-2 inches shorter than Shoko Nakajima). Shin-Kiba 1st Ring is also where she debuted.
(Side note: Haruna has confirmed on social media that she will not wrestle on 9/27, but will be in attendance)
