The Queen of Villains is one of the latest additions to Netflix‘s catalog that has caught attention for its aesthetics, but especially for being a Japanese series based on a true story about women in wrestling.

The first season of the drama is set in the 1980s and chronicles the rise of Dump Matsumoto, who transitioned from an aspiring hero wrestler to a feared villain—a change that defined her career and fame.

Yuriyan Retriever stars in the lead role, but she is not the only one shining in the ring; she is also joined by figures like Ell as Lovely Yoneyama, Erika Karata as Nagayo Chigusa and Ayame Gôriki as Lioness Asuka.
