— Here is the latest on Io Shirai and when she might debut in the WWE. According to sources, Shirai was previously expected to start with the company very soon, but that’s seemingly been put off after she revealed in a blog post that she now has a neck injury. The neck injury was found during her WWE medical tests, and Shirai “will not be with WWE for awhile.” However, she is expected to still join WWE later on.

Smooth sailing from here on out...
I mean I'm not surprised if it's true since she takes goofy bumps all the time
i hate how apron spots are becoming the norm now

What's crazy is she's really only had one major injury if I'm not mistaken. Something to do with her tailbone last year I believe.
That's pretty good for someone with her style who's been wrestling since she was 16. Mayu getting that ace spot in the company is dope though.

JR hasn't been good for years and Lita sucks on commentary, so yeah my picks are better
How old is Lita again?
42
I just wonder what parallels JR can draw to these women's backgrounds since he's not going to be able to reference where they played football and wrestled in college.
That's just a bad photo.How old is Lita again?
