>>17249409mark DEI = every foreign wrestler is good even when they're clearly shit and boring in their home country and sucked as champ there (bitch was an antidraw in like 3 companies)
she was hyped because Stardom poached her from a smaller fed and then started dumping money into running more shows with higher production value to trick people into thinking they were growing (and using Meltzer for English PR) at the same time Redditors started bandwagoning joshi because that other bitch killed herself - the so-called "experts" literally fell for astroturfed marketing in real time in a way that was immediately, hilariously obvious to anyone who was aware of those dogshit companies before the plandemic.
the result is that these idol/model-focused companies which are full of some of the sloppiest wrestlers on earth with the worst fucking instincts have successfully astroturfed a reputation from people who don't watch them as containing the best women's wrestling in the world. they show up in America and are quite literally outclassed by the most generic shitter white women and people still fail to see it. Stephanie Vaquer is also genuinely good which makes it even funnier lmao
