How's everything going?
Oh, thank you so much for having me. I am so over the moon right now. I'm in Japan for the first time ever. My first international booking, um living in the States obviously. I've wrestled in Canada pretty easily, but getting to Japan has always been a dream and I'm so happy to be here and it's been going amazing.
Okay, how many shows have you had already in your tour and how many more do you still have?
So I am in Japan with ICW, um No Holds Bard, and they have had three shows so far. I've been on two of them. So I actually made my Japan debut in the chains, which if you're not familiar, it means they have the chains as ropes. So it's pretty nuts. So in Japan, uh I'm a traditional wrestler, a professional wrestler, but I actually made my deathmatch debut. Oh my god, that's incredible! Oh my first match in Japan was with weapons and it was insane and it was awesome and I'm so happy.
Oh my god, no, I can see it in you. You look so excited. How did that go? How was the death match?
It was insane.
How did Gabby Forza land her first international tour in Japan?
I was expecting it to be absolutely nuts, and it absolutely was. My opponent was Ann Cham. She is crazy. She's an amazing Japanese wrestler, and I got to face her as my first opponent in Japan. That was a few nights ago. Yesterday I was going to just be a manager at Corcoran Hall with Bear Bronson, my husband. And I was just going to come out on his entrance and be there for his match. I got added to the show. Like an hour before. I got really lucky just being in the right place at the right time and they were like, she had an amazing match the day before. Get her on the show. Let's go. And I got to wrestle yesterday. So that was like a huge, huge deal. And it's just like a miracle. And I'm just I got really lucky and it's just being part of this tour has been so amazing.
Being able to wrestle in Japan twice now. I'm wrestling two more times uh blown away. Everything is amazing. Japan is as amazing as everyone said. Um and the social media has been amazing. Like uh the response and the fan interactions and meeting people that I didn't know would I didn't know I had fans in Japan. And it was really cool to find out by showing up and seeing signs for me. It's really cool.
Gosh, that is so sweet. I gotta tell you, I love your vibe and I I hope that um once people uh listen to this interview they can also uh catch the video because I was gonna say you have such you have such a good aura about you. I can't explain it, but you just have good vibes. Like I I feel happy talking to you. Does that make any sense?
Yes, that makes me that makes me happy. So I love uh Yeah, that makes me so happy. I love making people happy and uh thankfully in wrestling I get to do a lot of that. So it's been an amazing Experience just the whole journey. Um I do have kind of a funny story if you'd like to hear it.
Oh, please do share, yes.
So um this entire month I've only I'm only in Japan for ten days, which is amazing. I'm so grateful. But the entire month I've been away traveling abroad and I got to wrestle internationally. Not I was booked in Japan to wrestle internationally, but I was in Italy for two weeks uh at the start of March and I was visiting my grandmother uh and I just have family there. And then a layover between Italy and Japan is Paris. So I stayed in Paris for five days. And it just so happened to be the same time that Mercedes-Monet was going from Italy to Paris. So I was in Italy the same time as Mercedes-Monet, and I saw that and I was like, oh my gosh, she did a seminar.
