Invincible Fight Girl, a brand new show all about professional wrestling, is coming to Adult Swim’s Toonami block with a two-episode premiere on November 2.
The show follows Andy (Sydney Mikayla, The Gabby Douglas Story), a young girl aspiring to become the world’s greatest professional wrestler in a world where wrestling is everything. Andy’s dreams fly in the face of her parents who wish for her to pursue a career in accounting.
Along the way, viewers will be introduced to Mikey, Andy’s friend and a wrestling analyst who helps her along her journey. Aunt P (Rolanda Watts, Return to Babylon, Rolanda), a retired former wrestling champion, agrees to train Andy in her journey that will see her take on much bigger and tougher opponents.
The show features anime-inspired action, judging by the trailer, with several moves showcased alongside Invincible Fight Girl’s brand of humor. The show is the creation of Juston Gordon-Montgomery (DC Super Hero Girls) and was showcased during San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year.
Adult Swim president Michael Ouweleen was excited for the show’s future, as he shared in a statement:
“This series is a testament to Juston’s creativity and talent, with a series that’s funny and thrilling, and also super inspiring.”
As wrestling fans know, it’s often the smallest, most unlikeliest of grapplers who rise to the top of the mountain, which is what Andy seeks to do in this ‘follow-your-dreams’ animated adventure. The first two episodes will air at midnight on November 2, and will stream the next day on Max.
