Stardom President Taro Okada commented on the marriage between Natsupoi and Shingo Takagi: "First and foremost, their marriage is a truly wonderful thing, and it is a celebratory event that should be blessed from the heart," he told Pro-Wrestling Today. "However, from the perspective of the wrestling business, it was an event that the company handled with extreme "caution." "Natsupoi has very high "idol appeal." She is one of the most popular stars in STARDOM and is a driving force behind merchandise sales. Looking at past examples in the entertainment industry and women’s pro wrestling, we naturally anticipated the risk of enthusiastic fans leaving or turning into "antis" harboring negative emotions. That is exactly why the company was extremely careful regarding the timing and method of the announcement, as well as their conduct afterward. Ultimately, the fact that they were warmly accepted by the fans as a "symbol of happiness" is largely due to the personal character of the two individuals. When the interviewer pointed out the lack of negative reaction to the marriage, Okada said: "It also helped that, following the COVID-19 pandemic, STARDOM moved away from extreme "contact-based sales" (close-proximity fan interaction) and shifted its business model. When physical distance is too close, fan emotions tend to become overly heavy. If a wrestler has high idol or star quality and can transform a life event like marriage into something positive, they can shine even brighter as a wrestler. I feel a sense of relief that this case has become a benchmark and a wonderful model for the future of the women’s pro wrestling business." "The moment I heard it, I congratulated her, saying, "Oh, wow! Congratulations!" However, a few seconds later, my "manager switch" flipped, and we immediately began discussing, "How will we announce this? What's the timing?" - entering a meeting to protect both the talent and the business." laughed Okada. #STARDOM @Takagi__Shingo @n_poi07

Me / My favorite wrestler




Purely looking at the facts, no other feud has this much depth and consistency. They've spent 8 months building this story. Abandoning this match, whether it’s a One on One or a Triple Threat, makes zero sense. I trust the process.
