History

Growing up Eriko aspired to get in front of the camera. Indeed this can be seen in many home movies where she would constantly mug for that camera.


This is perhaps what lead to her getting involved in a business which mainly involved said camera. After being discovered in a Shibuya night club, Eriko's face and body have been seen in all sorts of magazines, mostly those who catered to male tastes of course. Although the life span of such a career is incredibly short, she has been photographed around the entire country of Japan, and various parts of others.

OJ-FWA

Eriko was hired as part of OJ-FWA's "New Talent Initiative" of 2007, which also produced WakuWaku Watanabe and Shiroko. The purpose of the initiative was to show the superiority of Reiko Hikawa's training facility by training those who have never wrestled into compitent performers. The only thing combat-related in Eriko's resume was a stint as a "sexy fighting boxer" at a local men's club. Hikawa took a skill that was never meant to be taken seriously, and trained Eriko to be a formidable striker.

Yuuki Matsuri 2007 and Moemi Amano

Eriko debuted at Yuuki Matsuri 2007 at the Budokan against Moemi Amano. Although the vastly more experienced veteran Amano was able to handily defeat the just trained Eriko, they quickly struck up a friendship and professional alliance that has lasted to this day, with Amano effectively managing her career.
