Sakura Hirota (広田さくら, Hirota sakura) is a Japanese professional wrestler currently working as a freelancer and is best known for her tenure with the Japanese promotions, Gaea Japan, Pro Wrestling Wave and Oz Academy.[3]
Hirota's later career is characterized by being a comedy wrestler who oft appears as a doppelgänger of other wrestlers, dressing up as and portraying their mannerisms in an exaggerated, poorly executed way for comedic effect. Hirota sometimes even ironically imitates her own opponent, examples include: Saki Akai and Asuka.
