We are getting closer to an official announcement regarding Rossy Ogawa’s new promotion.
Tokyo Sports caught up with the Stardom founder upon his return to Japan after spending the weekend at WrestleMania in Philadelphia. Ogawa told the outlet that a flag-raising press conference for his new promotion will take place within the next week.
A translation of Ogawa’s comments reads:
I’m going to be very busy from now on. We’ll be holding a press conference to launch the organization within the next week, so I hope to be able to show everyone an overview of our organization. Please look forward to it.
Giulia, who is expected to help kickstart the new promotion, did not travel back from Japan along with Ogawa. However, she is expected to wrestle for Stardom at Korakuen Hall on April 12. While she is no longer under contract to the promotion, she is scheduled to team with Syuri against Hanan & Mayu Iwatani on Friday’s show.
Giulia is also scheduled to wrestle for Pro Wrestling Noah at Wrestle Magic on May 4.
Ogawa was fired by Bushiroad in February and publicly accused of poaching Stardom talent for his new company. Dave Meltzer published a detailed look at Ogawa’s ousting from the promotion he founded shortly after in an article up now for subscribers. Fumi Saito and Jim Valley also addressed Ogawa’s release and future plans in an episode of Wrestling Observer Live from February 10.
