Character Bio[]
Billed from: Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan
Alignment: Heel
Following the indefinite hiatus of Ako Momona in 2021, FGI is looking for a new star to represent the brand going forward. Despite being new to wrestling, Arimura was chosen to be the new ace for FGI. Unlike her rival Nana Maeno, Arimura poses the aura of a no-nonsense champion asserting her dominance to anyone who stands in her way.
BATTLE (2021-)[]
A Promising Prospect[]
Although she did lose to Hikaru Minazuki in her debut match, Arimura would get her revenge and secure a win over Minazuki at BWP NEXT 06. In late June, Arimura lost a tag match to Team BWP composed of Arisu Otsu and Renka Yamamoto.
Revival of FG Live & Fighting Girls Champion[]
In August 2021, Arimura scored the biggest win of her career in the main event of Fighting Girls International 01 defeating Tsukasa Nagano to capture the vacant Fighting Girls Championship, thus becoming the 7th champion in the belt's history. Post-match, she was confronted by BWP's top stars until Akari Niimura showed up to propose an alliance between the two to take down the BWP.
Short-Lived Partnership & Regrouping[]
From there and onwards, Arimura and Niimura would test their partnership in a series of matches including the main event bout at ABV Grand Prix 04. Despite their preparations, both women would lose their respective matches to Arisu Otsu and YUE at BWP 09: CLIMAX. As a result of their losses, the partnership between the two came to an end. However, the two put their differences aside in unity for the Allied Forces going forward.
Next Gen Rivals[]
Heading into 2022, Arimura & Nana Maeno have become intertwined with their success as champions in 2021. Both had high-profile bouts that took place at BWP Boxing 05 in March and in the first round of the BATTLE Champions Tournament in June where Arimura lost twice.
Champions Clash[]
In the summer of 2022, Arimura took on the ace of BWP YUE in non-title bouts in July and August. Around this time, Arimura has developed a new attitude showing more confidence and is not afraid to bend the rules if needed.
FGI Title Defense & Another Rivalry[]
In August 2022, Arimura went up against Hinami Meguro from BWP in a non-title match at Fighting Girls International 02 getting the win over the rookie. Speaking of Meguro, the two competitors developed their rivalry resulting in a title match in late October where Arimura successfully retained her belt. The two once again clash at BWP Boxing 07 with Arimura knocking out Meguro scoring her third win in a row.
Punish the Rookie[]
In August 2023, Arimiura took on Akari Nonoka at Fighting Girls International 03 in a non-title bout. The purpose of the match was for Arimura to teach Nonoka a lesson for her defection and joining BWP. In the end, Arimura accomplished her mission with a decisive win.
Revisiting the Past[]
Announced at BWP 10: Heroines Assemble, Arimura took on Minazuki rekindling their brief 2021 feud. Unlike in BWP NEXT 06, Minazuki avenged her loss though the FG belt was not on the line. Speaking of past rivals, at BWP 11, Armiura is looking for another win against Meguro in their fourth encounter but ended in a bitter defeat.
BATTLE Champions Tournament 2[]
The second annual BATTLE Champions Tournament 2023-24 Season sees Arimura looking to have a better performance compared to last year. Thus far, Arimura made it out of the quarterfinals by defeating Niimura in A-block. The semi-final sees her and Maeno squaring off once again and this was a rematch from last year's tournament.
BWP vs Allied Forces[]
In April 2024, Arimura teamed with Niimura against BWP's Maeno and Nonoka. The match sees the Allied Forces using chains, kendo sticks, and a metal bin to overwhelm the babyface team. By the end, Arimura and Niimura would get the last laugh and defeat team BWP in a humiliating fashion.
