Olympic Fever is currently infecting more people worldwide than the Zika virus (well, hopefully). But just in case you haven’t caught it yet, this video might push you over the top. Meet Risako Kuwai, a 21-year-old amateur wrestler from Japan. After scoring a silver medal in the women’s freestyle 63 kg category at the 2015 World Wrestling Championships, she moved on to represent her homeland in the Rio Olympics in the same weight class. Wouldn’t you know it, she brought home the gold, defeating Belarus’ Maryia Mamashuk in the final match. (Take that, Belarus.) But better still is how Kuwai decided to celebrate her victory — she grabbed her coach and delivered not one, but two devastating Attitude Adjustments to him in quick succession, then carried him around the stage.

Of course, her coach totally no-sold her, which will probably result in a solid chewing-out once they get behind the curtain. C’mon, man, you’re always supposed to make your opponent look good out there!

Congratulations on the big victory, Risako — but you still have 14 more gold medals to win before you can officially take the spot of the Face Who Runs The Place. We crunched the numbers, and that means we’ll need to see you at every Summer Olympiad for at least the next 56 years. Can’t wait to see you wrestle on the Moon in 2072!
