Mae Young classic competitor, Meiko Satomura, will soon be joining the WWE Performance Centre in Orlando, Florida.
According to Squared Circle Sirens, Satomura will be joining the company as a guest trainer.
Satomura has earned international popularity since she began training back in 1994 at the age of 14. She has gone on to wrestle worldwide for promotions including Gaea Japan, World Championship Wrestling, Chikara, and Senai Girls’ Pro Wrestling. She has even competed for Britain’s Fight Club Pro, where she wrestled against then-WWE United Kingdom champion, Pete Dunne.
Meiko has also competed for WWE, wrestling in the second Mae Young classic tournament in 2018.
Her participation in the tournament saw her defeat Killer Kelly, Mercedes Martinez, and Lacey Lane. She would be knocked out of the competition in the semifinals by NXT UK Women’s Champion, Toni Storm.
WWE Superstar, Natalya, retweeted the article, adding her thoughts on the subject with a succinct, “Wow.”
Given that Satomura is a disciple of the stiff, impactful style associated with Japanese female wrestlers known Joshi Strong Style, it will be interesting to see if Joshi will be taught to the current crop of NXT talent. If it is, what kind of matchups can we expect from the next generation of female WWE Superstars?
