Futami names "trouble shooter" for next T-1 GP show

T-1 president Futami has announced that the next T-1 GP show will be on August 26 at the Nishi-chofu Arena. I believe this is at the U-File training camp. Futami has announced that "Queen Fight" Hikaru Shinohara is being brought in as a trouble shooter for this show. He also announced that he will host a talk show and a screening of the third T-1 GP show. Hikaru Shinohara is mostly known as an MMA fighter though she has appeared occasionally on pro wrestling shows. Her MMA record is 2-3. Her last fight was in Nov. 2005. I guess the idea is that she is a legit fighter who won't take any crap from the usual T-1 GP troublemakers like Yumiko Hotta & Sachie Abe. I guess the problem is she looks more like an idol wrestler than some of the MMA fighters I'm familiar with. So he's trying to sell her as tough but she doesn't really have the credentials. Megumi Fujii as a troubleshooter would be a different story. Also, Futami continues to blather on about getting a match with Kumiko Maekawa. I don't know if she'll ever take him up on his offer. The hilarity continues at T-1 GP.
