I mean, I'm glad Stardom does stuff with other organizations, I'd like to see more of that, but WOH just seems like the dirt worst (non-Impact) that they could be working with. I'm not sure where the value is for them, besides I guess more exposure for their girls.DarkstarIV posted:
Yeah, each side has a very much expendable member, though the fact that it's the last person to be pinned makes me wonder if they're going to swerve us a bit. My guess it's Viper getting the axe, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was Io, to give her something new to do. That said, I was a little disappointed with the ending to the Oedo Tai Natsu storyline. She saves Hana from a move and then they're good and they're all friendly now? I was hoping for something a little more dramatic. I'm glad the hostility story is over, but it kind of ended quickly.

It's def in terrible taste but I'm not sure how that is surprising considering the absurd matches ddtpro puts up (for laughs) or his entire gimmick as a sexweird.

Here is the Women of Honor pecking order: Mandy Leon Kelly Klein Brandi Rhodes Everyone else. I fully expect Delirious to job out the STARDOM talent to those three. Maybe one of the STARDOM talent will make it to the finals, but they'll almost certainly lose to Mandy or Kelly in a terrible match.

I really don't see Mandy as the focal point of WOH. She's just kind of there. Kelly Klein, Deonna, and Karen Q seem to be the main focus right now. Brandi and Mandy are kinda like in the 2nd tier below those 3 but about the Sumie Sakai and Jenny Roses types.

Apparently Hana Kimura signed a contract with Wrestle-1. What this means for her, I have no clue (as in, if she'll continue being able to work STARDOM dates or if its an exclusivity contract). I do think their roster (W-1) is incredibly shallow though, in terms of numbers.

From what I've heard, W-1 and Stardom are on good terms, enough that Hana has used her Oedo Tai gimmick there, so I'm pretty sure that she's still gonna be around.

In other womens wrestling news: It is Kairi's 6 year anniversary for her pro wrestling debut. https://twitter.com/KairiSaneWWE/status/949862026758819841 Its not all good news on her side though. https://twitter.com/KairiSaneWWE/status/949850563465895941 The part in Japanese is basically her indirectly lamenting that she hasnt made any appearances in a long time. NXT Taping spoilers: And she doesnt make any sort of appearance on the upcoming episodes either. Which means she most likely wont be wrestling until early February at the earliest. For reference, her last match was November 18th. So I can understand her being frustrated. DarkstarIV fucked around with this message at 14:02 on Jan 7, 2018 |

sportsgenius86 posted:Whoa wait she’s only been wrestling for 6 Years? drat Yeah, she started wrestling when she was 23, and was scouted by Fuka at a stage play. A few more details on the backstory of Kairi and how she got into wrestling: She wasn't into wrestling growing up (her father was/is), she was into yachting, and was a stage and TV actress. After being recruited for a role to play a wrestling heel for a stage play, she fell in love with it, and Fuka Kakimoto (co-owner of STARDOM) noticed it, and brought her in for training. She trained for a little while, and was part of the first STARDOM graduate class, alongside Mayu Iwatani. Her first real impact in the wrestling scene was tagging with Nanae Takahashi. They are still friends today, even though Nanae is pretty disliked in the pro wrestling world due to her part in the ghastly incident with Act and Yoshiko, along with seaDLLing (the promotion she runs now) being really scummy to anyone who isn't part of Nanae's little clique. Kairi only really rose to prominence once STARDOM started uploading their shows online, and people took notice then. Appearing on Lucha Underground also helped her out. In fact, it helped raise the stock of all three members of the Black Lotus Triad/Threedom (Kairi Sane/Hojo, Io Shirai, Mayu Iwatani). To be honest, I'm sort of shocked WWE hasn't gone after signing Mayu yet. I say sort of, because she would be best suited to NXT for awhile, considering Vince and Dunn would hate her looks. She's young (24) and outside of that one freak accident a few months ago, is pretty much injury free. I could see WWE taking another(?) look at her after the Women of Honor tournament. She's arguably the second best female wrestler in the world, only behind Io Shirai. DarkstarIV fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Jan 7, 2018 |

Mandy's the oldest and most established women's name ROH has under contract. Unless Sumie Sakai is under contract and not on a per shot deal.

quote:-Ring of Honor has offered contracts to three members of the Women of Honor (WOH) according to Casey Michael of Squared Circle Sirens. Ring of Honor is looking to lock up women under non-exclusive deals according to the report ahead of their tournament to crown the first WOH Champion, which begins this month. Those offered contracts so far include Mandy Leon, Kelly Klein, and Deonna Purrazzo. PWTorch has independently confirmed the report. Additionally, PWTorch has learned that ROH is also extending offers to Sumie Sakai, Jenny Rose, and Stella Gray. https://www.pwtorch.com/site/2018/01/11/news-njpw-update-ibushi-roh-looking-sign-female-talent-woh-silas-youngs-roh-status/

In regards to Darkstar's spoiler, I'm assuming they're gonna give her a singles push. She's recently signed, a famous person who could be a good face of the company Apparently Fuka, STARDOM's ring announcer and one of their trainers is pregnant. Also, is retiring. Good for her, but it's quite a loss for the company.

"I'm the best in the locker room" isn't really burying the locker room? Like that's what wrestlers say in character. Almost every one says that they are the best.

Sounds like people were being gossipy and poo poo within earshot of her. Question is, was she given permission to make that promo before she went out, or did she just get a live mic while she was out there? It's really obvious that what was said was getting to her. I just really want to find out more context about what was going on.

Yeah, if their is context about how she was not supposed to give the promo and then went backstage and said "that was a shoot and I meant it" then it would be her snapping. Otherwise it is just a promo.
