WWE has confirmed ESPN’s report that former WWF Women’s Champion Bull Nakano will be inducted into this year’s Hall of Fame!
Nakano’s famous WWF feud was with Alundra Blayze in the 1990s, where she won the WWF Women’s Championship in the Tokyo Dome. This was at an all-women’s show presented All Japan Women’s Pro-Wrestling. There were plans before Nakano’s release to have a feud with Bertha Faye.
“During my active years, I was able to get championship belts in Japan, America and Mexico,” Nakano told ESPN through an interpreter. “But just one thing was missing — I didn’t get inducted into the Hall of Fame. I wanted this. Finally, in 2024 in WrestleMania week, I am able to get this.”
Nakano has wrestled around the world including promotions such as CMLL, AJW, and WCW. She is currently in charge as commissioner of a new Japanese women’s promotion in the United States – Sukeban. This promotion has signed former NXT talent Sarray (Sareee).
Nakano retired from in-ring activity in 1997.
