Shiho

Shiho about to pin Jin Gae Sung in a match in August 2022.

 

 

Not too many people in Southeast Asia have heard the name, Shiho, a pro wrestler in South Korea.  In fact, I didn't know about him either.  That certainly changed when this blogger started following some video late last year.  I started following the promotion, PWS Korea that he wrestles in.

 

Shiho is a pro wrestler, promoter and trainer for the South Korean promotion.  According to Cagematch, he is 5'7" tall and weighs 170 pounds.  From videos that this fan has seen of him, he is as tough as nails when it comes to the squared circle.  He's quick, strong, has an aerial attack and has won more than his share of matches.  He has wrestled in Korea, America, Japan and China.

Shiho has won his share of titles such as the PWS Title on a couple of occasions.  However, bringing in wrestlers from within and outside the country is one of his major attributes.

 

The first video I saw of Shiho was on You Tube back in October 2018, about five years ago.  The event was PWS Domination 2.  Shiho faced a tough hombre in Big Money, part of today's Regnant Stable with Middle Kingdom Wrestling in China.

 

Despite a height and weight disadvantage, Shiho, more than earned this fan's respect.  He wasn't intimidated nore feared by the challenger.  In fact, he went toe to toe with him for portions of the match.  Big Money, thinking he had an easy win before the match ever started, learned some other things that day.  Shiho won by a count out, something that he would have preferred winning by pin or submission.  However, a win is a win.

 

The promotion he began, PWS Korea, had their first show back in January 2018 with an event, PWS First Show.  Their upcoming event will be PWS Pub Brawl on Saturday, November 18th.  All the best to Shiho and to PWS Korea going forward.
