OST ... Wrestle Angels' never has had an anime tie-in. Manga, both wrestling and/or fan-service related, have popped-up, the OST's now and then, but no 'toons. The closest thing that I think we ever got, and somebody speak-up if I'm wrong, was a piece started by Kenichi Sonada, called "Wrestloid Baby", an Angelic Layer-type show about female-robot wrestling. To my knowledge, however, this never made it past pre-production phase and onto the airwaves. To bad ... Gun Smith Cats; Bubblegum Crisis; The Wanna-be's ... he would have done a great job, I should have thought. Maybe it was just too close to Clamp's "Angelic Layer", "Plawres Sanshiro", or the already done "Metal Fighters Miku" to get fully funded by a network ... below is the only design pic I've ever found of the show.

Update on "Tatakae! Tarantella"

Looks like volume #3 is set to hit the shelves in Japan this week (2-6), if I've got my info right. Here are some of the latest "teasers" I've found:
