Rossy poaching more than Tony Khan

edit: although AWG is one of the promotions that might be the most resistant to poaching given they're very prepared to put a lot of green wrestlers on their shows

She's the rookie that Rossy poached from Stardom. Guess they gave her a first name.

First show May 20th at Korakuen Hall

The old non-Rossy bloke is apparently the former promoter of IBUKI. Which I'll be honest, is not a joshi promotion I'd heard of, but ran a few shows a year from 2005-10

Not introducing the former AWG crew is kind of a weird choice

One of them is Kouki, who has wrestled in AJPW in the AWG offer matches.

Be fair, he only needs to make this promotion viable for about six months before turning it into NXT Japan.

They need to do a better job of pretending not to be a wrestling company. If they can't stop their stars being poached by paying them more, best to camoflage them as actors or office workers or nurses.

honestly it seems like the best way to make Rossy disinterested is to just have your roster all pretend to be married
