Natsumi Showzuki

[6.0] "The Marigold wrestlers are basically overrated on this website. She is ok at best. She was better in Stardom but even those times weren't an eight rated wrestler. But nowadays she is a bit average tbh"

[7.0] "One of the best wrestlers in Marigold. Love her fast paced style, and she has a really cool look as well."

[9.0] "She is one of the very best, the true embodiment of the speed division. Almost a Joshi Shawn Michaels with the way her career went in two parts, she had a great "first" career and had to retire due to injury. She has come back to being one of the best as if she never left. Natsumi Showzuki is one to watch, she keeps putting on consistently great matches."

[9.0] "One of the unsung heroes of Marigold, really knows how to make whoever she works with look good, specially the rookies. A really solid pick as first Super Fly Championship who can really steal the show when they let her. Also, her gear is probably the best one of all the Marigold wrestlers, and just look right with the belt."

[7.0] "I can't deny that she's a good wrestler but something hasn't clicked for me compared to the others Actwres girl'Z."

[9.0] "Showzuki is having a revitalised career in Marigold, she was already great as the champion in AWG. But feels like she's dtepped up her game even more since joining Marigold. Winning the Super Fly Championship and teaming with Miku Aono, she stands out with her work rate and stiff kicks. Plus that insane running double knee she does. So glad she's getting this second chance to show how good she really is."

[9.0] "I tend to round up when rating wrestlers, but Natsumi deserves rating between 8-9 based on her look and in-ring work alone. She has been one of Marigold's highlights so far in 2024 and I can see why Rossy put the Superfly Championship belt on her. Her tag team work with Miku Aonu has been outstanding and is always a must watch on any Marigold card. Natsumi elevates talent around her as well, as many of her opponents have increased match quality when squaring off against her. Her strikes are hard and she does everything with a speed and precision that makes her a believable threat despite her small size."

[9.0] "My opinion of Natsumi Showzuki is based solely on her time in the new Marigold promotion. I've enjoyed every match she's had and her recent win of the Superfly title was one of the better matches at the Marigold Summer Destiny PPV. I would go so far as to say, it had the spot of the entire show...her running double knees/meteora on Misa Matsui. While I think Misa will ultimately be the wrestler most associated with the new title, Natsumi is an excellent first champion. Her moveset is simple, but everything is crisp and tight."

[9.0] "Personally one of if not my overall favorite joshi coming from Actwres girlZ. Good look and can put on a pretty good match."

[9.0] "Natsumi is a very good joshi with an interesting image, she has always been good, but now she looks much more serious and cooler. Really love watching her in AWG, she's one of the main faces here. I think she's the kind of person who is a leader and leads the AWG."

[8.0] "Underrated during her original STARDOM run, showed flashes of talent here and there. Her tag team with Kairi was memorable. Since her return to the ring, however, she's really been one of the new AWG's bright spots. Crazy that after so many years away, she was able to come back better than ever. Her matches with Wild Bunny (Act Yasukawa) are a lot of fun, and she had a fantastic match with Mari in Osaka. She's a big building block for the new AWG, and we're lucky she's back."

[2.0] "I don't know about her martial arts background but as a pro-wrestler she stood somewhere between inadequate and appalling. Even her kicks, which are the most overused move for people with contact sports backgrounds, came off as dreadful. She was clearly lost in the ring and needed somebody to guide her through all the motions. If that somebody was a very young Io Shirai, the match ended up being below average, if it was another poor worker, the match ended up being a trainwreck. She did however acknowledge pro-wrestling wasn't her call and moved on before injuring herself."
