Norwegian Rudo posted:Based on what? She's coming to Orlando during WM so I'd have to say she's at least seriously considering the offer. First to dispute Meltzer's reports but STARDOM report is highly accurate when I looked into it. Norwegian Rudo posted:The list isn't mine BTW, just one I found. You can probably add Mia Yim to it somewhere as well. WWE has interest in Karen Q. Chinese American who speaks Chinese so she's highly sign-able. From the same Wrestling school as Deonna and Mia Yim is a fan: https://twitter.com/Jocay19/status/839622803469004800 Beginning to work outside of New Jersey: https://twitter.com/aiwrestling/status/830199949061140480 The women's scene is kind of exploding. Kiera Hogan is someone people are high on too.

I can see that as also least likely to actually happen, considering she's Stardoms ace but who knows stranger things have happened, maybe Stardom will let her travel to the states for a WWE tournament she wouldn't win in with the added threat of possible injury for just coming in for a cup of coffee.

They let her show up in LU, so it wouldn't shock me if WWE offered waaaaay more money to pull off a cameo. It's beneficial publicity for them too because I'd wager most WWE fans haven't heard of Stardom.

If the WWE wanted to get into a bidding war for the best women's wrestler in the last 15 years, there's not much Rossi can do to stop them. STARDOM might have a lot of money, but they don't have the kind of money to compete if WWE really wanted to give her a top level contract. She's easily one of the top 20 wrestlers in the world right now, men or women. She and Meiko are absolutely the two best female wrestlers in probably the last 15-20 years by miles. Shirai has a pretty flashy style, but she's very crisp in her offense. The only advantages that I'd say Asuka would have on her is better English and in-ring charisma, but Io is a much better wrestler. With Hojo coming in it's just weird to imagine the WWE with multiple Japanese female wrestlers that are all very unique in their styles and looks that are taken seriously.

The question is, if Io and Hojo are free to leave for the WWE anytime, as seems to be the case, do Stardom contracts even cover anything but other Japanese companies?

I just love how people who use to hype up Ember Moon have now turned on her even though she's the best women's wrestler in NXT today. They claim she's not over, yet people pop for her every time she comes out. When NXT was in Australia the crowds exploded for her when she came out. Another funny thing is when people claim they don't know what she's suppose to be or that she doesn't fit her look. I guess people havenmissed when she's explained that she's all about mystery.

It's the same slow march of denial with everyone struggling against the reality that WWE is bad at handling talent because it homogenizes styles, tones down exciting movesets, dumbs down characters, writes and books talented people terribly, and only gets people over by accident. Yet they hope their indie and international favorites to come in too, and then wonder why they're all suddenly boring. It couldn't possibly be the $1.5 billion company with incredible production values though, no. It must be that the wrestler Was Always Bad™.

I do wonder where they're going with Tye Dillinger, especially considering he's too old to really be a guy to build up in development. Why he's been built up at the expensive of Roderick Strong I don't understand.
