Based on my experience with the size of Japanese apartments, she must feel like she's in a mansion.

Io is saying American homes are roomy, which is true by Tokyo standards but I’m guessing the lodging WWE provides is below most other people’s benchmarks.

Which is funny because one of the names for Japanese apartments is literally “mansion” (my apartment, for example, is called that).

I knew the living situation in the back of my head but did you see the BBC Viper documentary last month. The living conditions for STARDOM gaijin was a real eye-opener for 2018 Westerner eyes

Kaitlyn had an interesting series of matches on Main Event/Superstars with Alicia, due to Alicia being very light and Kaitlyn being pretty strong. Overall there kinda was never any "there" there with her work.

that's a pretty nifty way to end up in a shoot piledriver, but cool looking nonetheless.

She's not medically cleared yet. Doubt she's signed.Also, she JUST bought a house in Detroit recently, so I highly doubt she'd up and move to Orlando for NXT.

Don't think WWE provides housing, but for obvious reasons the wrestlers tend to congregate in the same areas. Also Io got rid of her apartment the first time she was signing and has been living with several roommates since.

PURE FUCKING AINOGEDDON
TJPW's Nodoka Oneesan is retiring her children's show character gimmick and the accompanying dance she leads the audience in before all her matches next month. She's revealing her new gear and ring name at Korakuen Hall on August 25.

This, like Nodoka Oneesan herself, is a tiny and silly thing, but I'm not gonna lie, it's a little heartbreaking! But between forming a tag team with her real-life sister and almost certainly getting ready for a move up the card (if her Cinderella run in the Tokyo Princess Cup tournament is any indication), it's not really a huge surprise in retrospect. As long as she's still 4'9" and no-selling shoulder tackles like a stack of cinderblocks I'm down for whatever she does next.
