JWP Joshi Pro Wrestling: Pure Wrestle Queens (1994) celebrated Japan Women’s Pro-Wrestling with a roster of top stars from the promotion, showcasing the athleticism and charisma of its performers. Released for the Super Famicom, it joined Fire Pro Women in giving joshi wrestling a rare but serious platform in gaming.
Gameplay mirrored the Fire Pro style with timing-based grappling and move sets that reflected the unique arsenals of the roster. High-flying maneuvers, chain suplexes, and technical submissions all played roles in match pacing. Presentation highlighted colorful character portraits, lively arenas, and branding faithful to JWP’s identity.
Though less internationally known than AJW, JWP’s inclusion in gaming represented the breadth of Japan’s wrestling culture. Pure Wrestle Queens remains significant as both a celebration of joshi wrestling and an example of how seriously the medium treated women’s wrestling in Japan long before the West.
