>[Stardom] Maika, who lost her title, declares revenge on Saya Kamitani who entered the HATE group: "Looking back, it felt strange"
>Maika, who lost her world title in the women's professional wrestling "Stardom", is already aiming to regain the title by the end of the year. On July 28th, in a match at the Sapporo tournament, she lost her prized belt to Natsuko Tora. On the 2nd, she confessed her feelings in an interview. She vowed to take revenge on Saya Kamitani, who betrayed her, and is burning with fighting spirit to make a comeback.
>From July 31 to August 2, she devoted herself to PR activities in Osaka and her hometown of Fukuoka without taking a break. On this day, she returned to Tokyo from Fukuoka and when she saw a reporter at the arrival gate, she showed her generosity by even giving a souvenir to the reporter, saying, "What are you doing here?! But you must have worked hard in this heat. Here, I'll give you some (Hakata) street food."
>Later, in an interview, she pouted and said, "A lot has happened in the organization over the past six months, and I've felt like I have to lead the organization as the face of Stardom. But things have calmed down a lot recently, haven't they? So maybe I let my guard down this time and lost the belt."
>Since she was crowned champion at the Ryogoku tournament at the end of last year, the group has been in a transitional period with five wrestlers leaving the group. Amidst all this, Maika has defended her title in other groups as the group's highest-ranking champion, livening up the industry as a whole. "I've been so tense up until now, so to be honest, I feel like I've finally had a weight lifted off my shoulders," she said, gazing into the distance.
