T-1's Futami still upset with Maekawa

T-1 will be having their second joshi show Feb. 23 at Shinjuku FACE. T-1 president announced yesterday that the main event will be Manami Toyota, Yumiko Hotta & Tsubasa Kuragaki vs Megumi Yabushita & Amazing Kong. This was after Futami's wrangling with Kumiko Maekawa and AKINO dropping out due to illness. But Futami is still upset with Maekawa.



He thought Maekawa would work the show. She dropped out when he couldn't tell her who was in the match. When he told her Yumiko Hotta was involved, she still didn't want to do the show. She apologized to fans but she still doesn't want to do the show.



Futami apologized to fans saying that he was in verbal warfare with Kumiko Maekawa and he was unable to convince her to work the show. He thanked Yumiko Hotta for stepping in and helping out.



Speaking of Hotta, there are rumblings afoot that Hotta will use the T-1 show to springboard into her own promotion again. This rumour has been around since Mika Nishio left KO Productions to freelance. Nishio is very loyal to Hotta. There may be something to this as A To Z has quietly booked Korakuen Hall for five dates beginning March 19. It appears Hotta is having second thoughts about the A To Z/JD Star merger and wants to be in charge again. Too bad she was a failure at running her own promotion.
