[Stardom] Tamu Nakano declares that she will stay and is willing to take back the title ``There's a lot left to do''
February 8, 2024 05:00
Tamu Nakano of the women's professional wrestling group Stardom, which has been shaken by family turmoil, has announced that she will remain with the group. The organization terminated the contract of Rossi Ogawa (66), who served as executive producer, on February 4th due to the fact that he had poached a large number of Stardom players and staff. Mr. Ogawa, on the other hand, denied poaching, but admitted that he was working towards establishing a new organization. While her selection as a player is attracting attention, what are Nakano's thoughts when he raised his hand to be the first to keep her?
The shock that has hit the leader of the women's professional wrestling world has caused fans to voice concerns about the future of the organization. During an interview with this newspaper during the uproar, Nakano said, ``Honestly, the organization had to announce the punishment of the person who held the position, and I think we took appropriate action, but I think that's enough. "I think it's best to discuss the rest with other adults in an appropriate manner," he said calmly.
Mr. Ogawa's announcement that he is working towards establishing a new organization raises concerns about a split. Nakano expressed his anger at the current situation in which his team, as a player, is receiving unwanted attention, saying, ``I'd rather entertain everyone with our Stardom battles than these old men's battles.That's why Tamu remains in Stardom.'' "We will make it the best organization in the world. That is the goal of Chapter 2 of Tamu Road!", revealing that he will remain in Stardom.
Nakano, who was the world champion last October, injured his left knee in the championship match. He was forced to take a long absence and returned the belt. However, her achievements over the past year were recognized and she won the Women's Pro Wrestling Award for the first time at the ``2023 Pro Wrestling Award'' established by Tokyo Sports Shimbun. At the time, she vowed to give back to the organization. She said, ``During my absence, I was helped by Stardom's fans and friends.I promised to repay the favor to Stardom, so no matter what happens to Stardom in the future, I feel that I must continue to protect Stardom.'' "There is," she said, reaffirming her determination.
Coincidentally, Nakano returned to the ring for the first time in four months at Ogawa's ``last tournament'' in Osaka on the 4th. Looking back on the match, he said, ``It's been a long time since I last played in the ring, so I was really nervous right up until the last minute, but when I entered the arena, I saw the faces of all the fans and heard their cheers. After all, I thought that this ring was my place to live.'' he said with a smile.
Also, at the same tournament, he watched the world championship match, which he gave up, from the back of the venue. After the match, the current champion Maika called out to him, saying, ``I'll be waiting until you can break through your limits.'' ``Even as the Red Belt (World) Champion, I have a lot of unfinished business to do.The elbow I injured before my absence has healed, and I'm in better condition than before I took a break.Now that I've come back, I can return to the top of stardom.'' "I had already decided on that," he said, expressing his desire to regain the title.
Nakano, who is determined to lead the organization as the top of the women's professional wrestling world, said, ``I am grateful to both Ogawa-san, who raised Tamu, and Bushiroad Fight, who helped grow the organization.'' ``I love Stardom. That's why I don't care about stories like this, but Tamu captivates me by showing passionate battles. I will continue to protect Stardom.''
In order to dispel fans' concerns, he walks through the second chapter of the road with tragic determination.
