Bull Nakano
- Actress
Born in Kawaguchi, Japan, Keiko Nakano started training as a
professional wrestler at the tender age of 15. She debuted using her
real name, competing for the All Japan Women's Association wrestling
promotion and captured the AJW Junior Championship. Upon changing her
name to Bull Nakano, she adopted a grizzly appearance, shaving half her
head and wearing dark eye make up and teamed with the monstrous Dump
Matsumoto to become one of the most dangerous tag teams in AJW history,
eventually capturing the WWWA World Tag Team title from the popular
Crush Gals. Nakano would also win the title with Condor Saito as her
partner. As a singles competitor, Nakano dominated her competition,
capturing the AJW All Pacific Title and the WWWA World Championship,
the latter which she held for nearly three years. Nakano also traveled
to Mexico where she captured the CMLL Women's title, and in 1994,
ventured to the United States to work for the World Wrestling
Federation, where she defeated Alundra Blayze for the WWF Women's
championship. She also competed in a series of matches for WCW in the
United States. Since retiring from pro wrestling in 1997, Nakano has
been pursuing a career in professional golf and studying linguistics at
a university.
