Shout out to the best female wrestler in WWE today. She's the one true ace and one of the best pure wrestlers in the world today. Come give your crazy lady lots of love. Talk about her pre-WWE career as well and feel free to share some whopper matches of her Kana character.​

Well, she isn't a better worker than Charlotte but I am a fan of her in-ring work. Too bad she lost so much steam after her first lost .. which WWE could have rectified with just havin' Asuka win a rematch for the championship from Charlotte. Another example of a great talent gettin' fucked over by scatterbrain bookin'.

They really fucked with her run, she was on such a hot roll. I hate that she's in a tag team, both girls are great wrestlers and don't need to be in a tag team, but, well, DUBYA DUBYA EEE.

I don't mind Kairi and Asuka being in a tag team. It at least gives me hope for a stable I desperately want to see WWE capitalize on...

And that's the Royal Triad: Empress of Tomorrow Asuka, Pirate Princess Kairi Sane, and Monarch of the Sky Io Shirai; and in addition to Asuka and Kairi being tag champs, they should give Asuka the Raw Women's Championship, Kairi the SmackDown Women's Championship, and Io the NXT Women's Championship and just make them a completely dominant force on all three brands.


BOOK IT WWE!!! :cudi

Ugh....she had to lose eventually.

If a person's defining character is being undefeated....that person isn't going nowhere after it's over.

She was pushed harder than anyone else not in the horsewomen.

Not like being the first ever women's Royal Rumble winner means anything.

Pretty sure her biggest character trait in NXT was that she was a master of mind games and getting into opponent's heads by being a complete dick in the ring.

I don't care that she lost, of course it has to happen sometime, but, her hype just went away so fast after that.

Only thing they did wrong with her was being distracted by Ellsworth in her robe and mask.

As people has stated one of the best Wrestlers to ever lace up dem boots and wrestle no doubt. When she was signed by WWE I had the pleasure via a friend of mines on another Forum to guide me through Joshi and boy if you like her with the WWE you'll love her more from her work as Kana in Japan.

Man, how great have the Kabuki Warriors been lately?

Probably the best gimmick in all of wrestling right now, "Sneaky Japanese Heels" :lol

I am surprised how much I'm enjoying a fairly generic foreign heel run by them rn...but I guess the classics still work with good performers.

It works because it's been such a long time since we've seen the gimmick I think, last person to use the gimmick I think was Tajiri and he was a face most of his run.

I like how it's not considered racist that her gimmick is the green mist......untol she turns Babyface that is.
