DarkstarIV posted:Shirai will not be going to WWE according to Meltzer. Concern over her neck injury, along with the fact that WWE is supposedly satisfied with Kairi and Asuka is enough for them. Meaning Shirai will be working the 5* GP with a broken neck. The Observer story makes 0% sense. The only thing I can see that fits somewhat with the timeline is that WWE told Io to get her neck fixed before they'd sign her and she decided against it. If all that was needed was a few weeks rest then WWE would have signed her right away.

The only thing I can see that fits somewhat with the timeline is that WWE told Io to get her neck fixed before they'd sign her and she decided against it. If all that was needed was a few weeks rest then WWE would have signed her right away. I don't know. This part of the article sticks out to me: quote:Nobody has directly said that WWE decided against offering her a contract due to her neck issues that they found in her physicals, but they had stalled on offering her a contract months ago when they found out about the injury while she did her medicals in the U.S. After she did her medicals, WWE wanted her to take time off to rehab her neck. She did that and was just cleared by doctors to return to the ring after her therapy. Then WWE seemingly decided against offering her the deal. While every case is different, WWE has had a general rule of not wanting to bring in new talent that either has concussion issues or neck issues. It also could be that with Kairi Hojo and Asuka they already have two Japanese women and had discovered more women from other nationalities that they wanted to sign from the Mae Young Classic. Even though most would say Shirai was better than Hojo or Asuka, timing is everything in this business. It's true that WWE has a tendency to handle neck/concussion issues on a case by case basis. Kairi apparently has a history of concussions and got signed. I'm really not going to blame any party (at least more than the other) here, but I will note that both STARDOM and WWE are at fault here (I can't really blame Io for this, to be honest). WWE for being indecisive this long, and STARDOM for lashing out at people for saying that Shirai really shouldn't be working. Because if she was working while she was supposed to be rehabbing her neck, I'd wager STARDOM pressured her into it, and that would probably put her in a bad light, at least in WWE's eyes. Even if she has been cleared to wrestle, it's still bad optics. Regardless, I feel bad for Mayu in this situation, who is probably going to get bumped back down the card. Again.

Can't wait for her to debut on the main roster and Vince to make sure she never sounds that likeable or relatable ever again.

She's going to be taken very well care of at least until Stephanie can get a win of Rhonda Rousey, because you KNOW that's why she's here I. The first place.

I know I'm mad late to the party but GLOW is really good. Like, I'm generally blown away by getting actual modern wrestlers to play retro wrestlers and getting like... Allison Brie... to do real wrestling moves.

Allison Brie... to do real wrestling moves. The TV Guide website has this great article on the one-woman wrestling scene. Kate Dennis, director posted:This move was tricky and we were careful to not have to do it too many times. I'd say Alison did it a total of about eight times. About twice per set-up (or shot). At no point did Alison say, 'actually this quite hurts. Can we only do it a few times?' She was extraordinary. I had to talk to [wrestling choreographer] Chavo and our stunt supervisor to get a true sense of the pain the move could cause if we did it too many times.

Is that voice and backstory a gimmick from Sara Logan? I never heard her speak before so maybe its not.

Yeah, it's all for the NXT gimmick. She has an accent in Crazy Mary videos but not like that. Aphrodite fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Aug 11, 2017 |

Also, she has a Southern drawl and child like way about her. I know a WWE wrestler who only knew her as "this deathmatch girl" and thought sincerely she was showing signs of concussion issues but that isn't the situation just that's how she is.

It's possibly just because I'm British, but 10 episodes a season seems like the perfect length for things like this.
