Rin Takanashi
Rin Takinashi was the “kid sister” of Astrid Reichert’s ruda trio in Hikari Pro, slotted in alongside Astrid and Tessa ANGEL. Astrid brought menace, Tessa brought polish, and Rin brought attitude. She reveled in being part of the wolf pack, flicking gum at fans and mugging for cameras, but lacked the presence or power of her mentors. Astrid eventually cut her loose, leaving Rin smitten with the outlaw lifestyle but adrift on her own. Rather than take her place in the Joshi system, Rin signed an ICW developmental deal — convinced that following Astrid across the ocean was her ticket to ruda stardom.
Her trainers are often exasperated: Rin once showed natural aptitude for llave-style wrestling, slick transitions, and entanglement submissions. But instead of building on her strengths, she abandoned them in favor of shortcuts, posturing, and an endless stream of foul-mouthed bravado.

Finisher Setup | — |
Basic Finisher | Dragon’s Fang – Bridging Dragon Suplex. Legitimately crisp, but only effective on opponents under ~140 lbs. |
Submission Finisher | Eternal Eclipse – Rear Naked Choke. Rin thrashes and snarls like Astrid, but doesn’t have the squeeze to make seasoned opponents tap. |
In-Ring Personality | Rin thinks she’s a terrifying ruda, but she’s more like an angry chihuahua. She barks and curses from a safe distance, cowers when cornered, and only fights like a buzzsaw when her back is to the wall. She idolizes Astrid Reichert but lacks her strength and discipline. |
In-Ring Tactics | Rin leans heavily on bravado and cheating instead of the llave and high flying she could actually be good at. Rin will also routinely try to pull off power moves on opponents she has no chance of lifting, leading to unintentional comedy spots — she sells these failures as if the opponent is at fault. |

Never Do | *Win her matches with her actual finishers *Admit she isn’t much like Astrid *Wrestle clean for long *Show humility *Stick with the technical style she was once good at |
