Mercedes Mone (formerly Sasha Banks in WWE) broke the internet when she signed with Stardom, the all-women’s wrestling company in Japan! But Stardom was already a hot promotion before Mercedes signed. They were recently purchased by Bushiroad, which also owns New Japan Pro Wrestling, and have already amassed quite a storied history for their relatively 10 short years as a company. StardomCast podcast hosts, Rob Goodwin and Matt Turner, join to talk about Mercedes’ arrival at Stardom, the history of Stardom, and some of its other biggest and brightest homegrown stars and gaijin (aka foreign) talent like KAIRI, Mayu Iwatani, Io Sharai, Giulia, Jamie Hayter and Toni Storm. They break down the infamous Kenny Omega vs an 8-year-old girl match, and the horrific “Ghastly Match” that resulted in some serious injuries for Act Yasukawa and the title being stripped from Yoshiko who was ultimately fired from the company too. They also share some of their favorite, must-see Stardom matches!

Hana really was something extremely special. Glad to see Chris talk about her, she deserves to be remembered.

It's a heartbreaking story. Sadly Kenny Omega revealed the Joshi talent wrestling for AEW have been the victims of campaigns of online abuse. We need to get out of the mindset that public figures are fair game for abuse. Twitter, Instagram and Facebook need to do a hell of a lot more as well.

If Hana Kimura was alive today, she would have been a huge star whether it's STARDOM, AEW or WWE/NXT. Shout out to The Stardom Cast Podcast

She is on the level of Bruiser Brody in wrestling lore now.

That’s horrible, man. Similar abuse like that caused Amanda Todd to take her life as well. It’s tragedies like this that make me hate social media and wish it never existed. The world would seriously be better without it.

All I hear are facts! 👏🙌🤩 I enjoy imagining a world where social media has yet to be discovered and people are interacting with each other. I know without a doubt that the world will only get worse but I won't let that stop me, or even bother me! We need to be hopeful no matter what. ✊😀

Talking don’t always work…. I’ve been to cancelling twice it didn’t work

@pacman52280 Год назад

Considering how loved she was by her fans and the wrestling community, I am surprised they didn't rush to defend her when the haters piled on the abuse. Or, maybe they tried as hard as they could to do just that, but it may have been overwhelmed by all the negativity hurled her way.

One of my favorite chapters of a manga is highly likely based on hana's story Oshi No Ko

@avapace9705 Год назад

I see an Oshi No Ko fan here~ or perhaps someone who has heard of the manga~ ✊😀😉 Yes, the manga is really good at giving its viewers a realistic and accurate perspective of the entertainment industry! 😀 Even though the manga is incredibly dark and twisted, it means a bunch to acknowledge how harsh reality can get. Especially in the entertainment industry.

I was reading yesterday that Hana Kimura's mom was extremely upset with the creator of Oshi No Ko cause one of the chapters in the anime resembled the same messages / scenario that Hana probably suffered without having been consulted, sad tho

@franklinwilson3783 Год назад

Hana was bullied throughout her childhood because she was mixed race, Japanese/Indonesian, I think. From what I understand Japan can be a very racist society. She was a bit of an outcast because of this. Possibly the outpouring of negativity during her time at Terrace House combined with a rough childhood was more than she could bear. Giulia, another Stardom wrestler who is Japanese/Italian suffered terrible bullying throughout her childhood in Japan. So much so that her parents had to send she and her brother to a private high school. Sad that nobody was able to talk Hana off the ledge before she made her final tragic mistake. All that aside......Check out Hana Kimura vs Giulia on the youtube Stardom channel. It is a killer match

@shadowof7662 Год назад

Their rivalry brought me back to Stardom. Correct, Hana was Japanese and Indonesian, can't deny that she was a rare beauty. Combining that with her exotic personality made her a once-in-a-lifetime wrestler and human being, no wonder the 2 worked so well. Stardom should be grateful for the next half Japanese wrestler(s) that walks through their door. Their childhoods proved Japan is not only racist, but collectivist. They have a disdain for anyone who stands out or looks different, but what good is a society where everyone looks the exact same, just carbon copies of each other? It's not all of Japan, but it's a decent margin of them.
