Ryukyu Dragon pro-wrestlers have all the right moves in their repertoire to entertain audiences minus violence and blood making it suitable for whole families to enjoy.

Ryukyu Dragon, Okinawa’s own pro-wrestling troupe, is scheduled to have a charity event “Ryukyu Dragon Champuru” this Saturday at the Okinawa Comprehensive Athletic Park gym.

The action is convincing.

The team members perform their show under the slogan “Dream, Courage, Excitement and Smile by pro-wrestling.” Children from local orphanages and disabled children are special invited guests at the charity event.
