[1] On August 25, the Crush Gals defeated their rivals, the Dynamite Girls, to capture the WWWA World Tag Team Championship.

Asuka came out of retirement on November 20, 1994,[2] and formed the Rideen Array, a faction consisting of fellow freelance wrestlers Jaguar Yokota and Bison Kimura.

However, near the end of 1999, Nagayo and Asuka united against a common rival, the Mayumi Ozaki-led faction Team Nostradamus, and, the next spring, reformed Crush Gals.

The storyline was huge news in Japan, and GAEA's show of May 14, 2000, featuring the debut of the reunited team, now called CRUSH 2000, was the biggest in the promotion's history.

Her retirement was made official on April 3, 2005, where she and Chigusa Nagayo teamed up for the last time to defeat Chikayo Nagashima and Sugar Sato at GAEA's tenth anniversary show.
