I love that she inadvertently fixed the sexist damsel in distress character just by pointing out that she could have agency (and giving her a role model).
I assume Serval Cat Mask was inspired by Kinnikuman as that’s the only pro-wrestling anime I know of and the moves looked pretty similar.
It’s probably Tiger Mask. I’ve never read or watched that, but it has been referenced a lot in other works too and the appearance / naming seems to fit.

Ah I was hoping someone would have a better idea, thanks!
It’s definitely Tiger Mask

Credible moves that are mostly banned because they’re dangerous to the wrestlers.
