The Return of the Jumping Bomb Angels!!! (...in 2008)

By: Chris "Sledge" Douglas



Let me tell you a story...



I had an early infatuation with Japanese Women's Wrestling, but it took me a while to realize it. What didn't take me a while to realize is that I was really down with the Jumping Bomb Angels. I had, for the most part, only thought of wrestling as a male-driven "sport." Seeing these women go at it on the Survivor Series in 1987 at a level higher than most of the men on the show really opened my eyes.

And when I heard that, shortly after I left my job in Japan in 2007, that the Jumping Bomb Angels had made their return, I was ridiculously pissed.

Here is the match:
