Io Shirai (and his WWE NXT title) sends Stardom a message



[ad_1]

There have been a few rumors about WWE’s refusal to allow Kairi Sane to appear in Stardom’s upcoming 10th anniversary show, All Star Dream Cinderella. The latest, from last week’s Wrestling Observer newsletter, specified that Stardom offered two options: the Mae Young Classic winner could work a singles match or participate in a battle royale with other Joshi legends. The ‘E would have rejected both locations.

Maybe that’s what they came up with instead?

Like Kairi, Io Shirai was synonymous with Stardom before signing with WWE. This video is not the same as Sane, Shirai, or Asuka returning to the company for an appearance. But it features prominently on all of their online channels and is a real promotion for All Star Dream Cinderella.

And hey, maybe the rumors were wrong and the Pirate Princess will sail to Nippon Budokan next Wednesday (March 3)? Probably not, especially since Sane is a WWE Ambassador to Japan, a role that could include opening a performance center and possibly even establishing a regional NXT brand that would compete with Stardom, owned by Bushiroad.

But the Forbidden Doors are open elsewhere, so dare (All Star) to dream (Cinderella).
