Kanako Urai has always only cared about herself. Let's tell the truth.
In 2015 she ran off to the US and left her home country hated and embittered by her fellow countryfolk and after slamming the whole of joshi puroresu as tame and outdated, and badmouthing all the workers.
She has disrespected every mentor she ever served under, claming they bullied her when really they were hard on her because she kept doing stupid shit in the ring, stiffing people, going into the business for herself, and this is widely documented.
Urai ripped off the Shirai sisters out of money and that is why they wouldn't talk to her anymore for years. Some say that even today her and Io are leery of each other in real life despite working in the same company and has done 1 or 2 promos together for Japanese media, they are not friends anymore and never will be.
Urai also treated a young Syuri like dogshit back in the days Syuri broke into the business, and refused to put Syuri over even when Syuri was obviously getting more popular than her.
Helped train Konami when she broke into the business by kicking the ever loving shit out of her in training sessions for real, breaking Kon's nose and putting her in armbars without legging go. Because Kana is a known sadist in real life she took delight in torturing and bullying Konami, who was only looking desperately for someone to emulate.
Urai has ripped off promotions everywhere not only in Japan but around the world by demanding promoters pay her double than than the rest of the players.
Urai has been known to produce her on shows booking herself to win over everybody and cashing in on the bulk of the money received and paying the other girls little to nothing in return for their services.
