Yukari Lynch "the female Giant Baba", real name Yukari Kawamura

Yukari Lynch made her debut in AJW at the young age of 14 in 1975 after being scouted by AJW for her height, (her billed height is 180cm but Weekly Asahi lists it as 185cm), and because of her unique look due to being half white. Because she was biracial, Yukari was made into a heel and would team with whichever foreigners were on tour with AJW but she was promoted in the press with Mach Fumiake and an early Beauty Pair as their villain before Black Pair formed. She didn't stick with wrestling long enough to become skilled, she was reportedly slow in the ring and relied on elbow strikes and kicks for offense, and she reportedly decided to retire early in her career because she was sick of being a villain. After retirement she became a kickboxing instructor and worked as a hostess where she would be arrested for drug possession in April 1985, the possible reason why she was thoroughly erased from AJW's official history; she's only seen or mentioned in a match clip from the 1988 AJW home video release, ZenJo Fighting Again.
