about

"Japanese women's pro-wrestling (joshi) processed in an attempt to replicate the emotional reaction it induces in me. the tidal pool of two obsessions that insist on melding.

"DREAMSLUM's debut focuses on matches featuring Ice Ribbon Pro-Wrestling veteran Tsukushi Haruka. Tsukushi debuted in 2010 at just 13-years-old, after a year of training under Ice Ribbon founder Emi Sakura. She later trained under such respected and diverse wrestlers as Manami Toyota, Negro Casas, and Nanae Takahashi.

On July 23rd 2017, Tsukushi was arrested for injuring and allegedly attempting to stab fellow wrestler Kagetsu (of World Wonder Ring Stardom, another Japanese women's wrestling promotion). This information was leaked to the public by pro-wrestling journalist/critic Dave Meltzer, despite Japan's explicit rule of keeping the names of underage alleged criminals from being reported. Tsukushi publicly apologized at an Ice Ribbon event on September 6th, was stripped of her signature attire and prestige, and required to climb the ranks from the bottom in an effort to earn the trust and respect of the audience and her peers. She quickly regained her spot as a main event wrestler.

"Tsukushi Haruka, as she is now known, is a 10-time Tag Team Champion, 3-time IW-19 Champion, one-time DDT Iron Man Heavy Metal Champion, one-time REINA X World Tag Team Champion, and one-time ICEx60 Champion. She has appeared in a variety of promotions outside of Ice Ribbon, including Pro-Wrestling Wave, SEAdLINNNG, Diana, and CMLL." - the artist
