Talent from Actwresgirlz (AWG) abruptly left the promotion 3 days ago then showed up at the MARIGOLD press conference at the last minute to join forces with Rossy.
Well, it will be interesting to see how the domestic fans respond, whether they are cynical towards Rossy's tactics, or simply want to continue supporting joshi and/or the STARDOM/AWG alumni now under his purview.
@MibIH so Fuku posted on Twitter about her side of what happened. Based on her events, Rossy didn't poach, she approached him. It's in Japanese, but I found Google's translator worked fine
@MibIH Something to that. Comic books themselves have a wide range of creative approaches via the different writers, artists etc. The movies based on them could be as diverse.
STARDOM update - A Tokyo Sports article has named the wrestlers due to leave at the end of March with some rumoured to join Rossy Ogawa's new promotion:
Utami Hayashishita
Giulia
MIRAI
Mai Sakurai
Yuzuki
Yuzuki is a suprise since she has just started and was given a big push but this also explains why Mayu pretty much squashed her at yesterday's PPV too.
@MibIH I was shocked at Yuzuki too, but she absolutely adores Mayu. So I see this as evidence Mayu is definitely gone once her contract eventually expires
@gnitro Someone posted a video on Twitter of Yuzuki from before her debut saying she chose STARDOM because she wanted to be a wrestler synonymous with the company and as its representative.
@MibIH Gonna be a good one. Nyla Rose, Juria is back, what I believe is the final TJPW match of Sakisama (tagging with Mei Saint-Michel), 4 title matches including Mizuki v Itoh, and Rika v Aino.
@MibIH Got my fingers crossed for these new rookies. If they're half as good as Yuzuki has been with as few matches under their belts, they'll be on the right path!
