Part 1: "Why am I like this?!" Her despair continued into her idol era. How Maki Itoh discovered her wrestling way of life. (4ページ目)

Her pro debut was on December 11th, 2016. It was at Hakata Star Lanes, in a match against Miyu Yamashita.

"Miyu Yamashita is strong. But because I had lived a life that she hadn't, I was still confident in myself in that regard. I thought that I had been able to see things she had never seen. Because I think, pro wrestling after all, more than winning or losing, is about how much you can move the fans emotionally, that's the most important thing right? So because I had these experiences from my life and stuff that Yamashita didn't have, I felt like I had this whole arsenal at my disposal that she didn't have, so I wasn't as scared as you'd maybe expect."

The result was that Yamashita beat her, but she definitely got a response.

For Maki Itoh, her way of life comes out in her pro wrestling. That's how she's always gotten the fans' support. However, she says "Lately, I can't really express that, though."

Unable to express her way of life - what the heck happened to Itoh?
