Bull Nakano Visits WWE Live Event in Japan
Japanese legend and former WWE Women’s Champion Bull Nakano was backstage visiting at a Raw brand live event in Japan earlier today.
Divas Champion Beth Phoenix tweeted a picture of herself with Nakano (see left), writing: “Myself and the legendary Bull Nakano…one of my greatest female inspirations. Loving Japan.”
Nakano unofficially retired in 1996 but announced earlier this year that she’ll be holding a retirement show in January 2012. Bull won’t be wrestling due to knee surgery, however, will be appearing in some fashion. Nakano recently got married.
Thoughts: With Nakano backstage, hopefully this could be the start of a working relationship. Perhaps they might induct Bull into the Hall of Fame one year.

Awesome ! Bull Nakano is one of the greatest , her match with Alundra Blayze for the Womens Title is Amazing. Its like you are glued to the video and your forced to watch it just awesome. I wish we could get matches like they had back in the days today.
Just some nice clean cut moves , and none of that booty popping , stink face , every face diva doing drop kicks , cross body’s etc etc crap.. lol

IMO Bull is the best wrestler they ever had in the women’s division, based on in-ring talent alone. No one touches her.

Next to Aja Kong she’s the most talented female wrestler ever to step foot in the WWE.
