This will be Hiroko\'s fifth match in wrestling and her first match since competing in a tag-team match for HUSTLE on Christmas Day in 2005. Hiroko is known by many for her WWE tenure from 2004 to 2005 where she served as the manager/translator of her real-life husband Kenzo Suzuki. She competed two times in WWE including in a \'Kimono Match\' against Torrie Wilson during a February 2005 edition of SmackDown in Japan.
Hiroko After WWE
In July 2005, both Hiroko and Kenzo were released from WWE as part of cost-cutting measures, despite being drafted to Raw mere days earlier in the 2005 Draft Lottery. After WWE, the pair returned to Japan where they worked for Hustle and Hiroko would be the General Manager of the promotion by the end of the year. Outside of the ring, Hiroko has established herself in the world of politics. In 2015, the WWE alum was elected to the Funabashi city council.
