Fuuka wants to go to the WWE

Fuuka was interviewed by Sportsnavi to promote her Apr. 29 Fuuka Matsuri show. She will face Ayumi Kurihara in the main event. Again she is asked about going into Shoot Boxing. She doesn't really answer that. The interviewer suggested that she could be Saori Ishioka's opponent on the May 16 JEWELS show. Fuuka said no but may do some more for SB. There has been speculation that she might leave joshi for shoot boxing. She talked about some new strike techniques learned in China last month. She talks about wrestling Ayumi Kurihara in the main event and that Ayumi has been impressive since returning from her injury. She says that singer Naomi Ishiwaka has been added to the singing group. When asked if she has any foreign bookings, she said not right now but she is currently setting up another trip to South Korea. But then she's asked about the WWE. She starts giggling but eventually she says she'd like to be a WWE Diva even if it's only for one match. Maybe she would like it to be her retirement match. Of course that's not going to happen. Would they hire her? It's doubtful probably because of her English and chances are pretty good that even if they were interested, she would have to go to FCW for a couple of years. Was she serious? Who knows but the fact that it had to be dragged out of her means probably not. But her final statement was that she wants to go abroad a lot this year but the WWE is her end goal.

  1. Apparently she's trying to learn english. Doesn't really matter to me whether or not she actually does go to the WWE. When she does anything but kick, even basic stuff, she sucks really badly. If they want another asian, they already have Angela Fong in development.

  2. Look, this is Hiroshi Ogawa motivated BS designed to get a headline in the Japanese media. She revealed this particular nugget in such a contrived cutesy-poo manner, it made me want to smack her. If she's going to lie, she could at least do it in a convincing way so we don't laugh at her.
