History

Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling split in 1992 into two promotions, JWP and LLPW. Shinobu Kandori formed LLPW and was both a co-owner and one of their top stars. The group contained former Japan Women's Pro wrestlers and recruited the formerly retired All Japan Women's wrestler, Noriyo Tateno. Their debut show was on August 29, 1992.[7] The promotion co-promoted with All Japan Women's in the 1990s, with many All Japan Women vs LLPW matchups. In 1995, LLPW held a female Mixed martial arts tournament called, "LLPW Ultimate L-1 Tournament", which was one of the first female MMA shows.[8] In 2002, the group changed its name to LLPW-X.[9]

As of 2010, the group is no longer running regularly,[10] but has at least ran one event per year.
