Here's a rundown
- Kana was in a stable "Passion Red" with Nanae Takahashi in a now-dead promotion NEO
- There was an infamous shoot incident between Nanae and Kana, which resulted in disbanding Passion Red

- There's still bad blood between Nanae and Kana
- Asuka now claims that STARDOM was created to bury her
- Kana formed a new stable "Triple Tails" with Io and Mio Shirais. Io left the stable for STARDOM

- SMASH went out of business, and they tried to rebuild it with WNC (Kana was pretty much a co-founder of this fed), but failed again
- Kana started her own independent promotion Kana Pro Mania, and Syuri had been with her for a while
- Kana took Konami as her first pupil, but she left behind both Syuri and Konami in Japan for WWE
- They both settled on STARDOM and Syuri reemerged on top of the joshi wrestling
- Asuka wasn't even a joshi watcher. She's just a Muta mark. She wanted to become a wrestler because of him
