Are you laughing at the fact that she's not wrestling at the WC?

I'm laughing at the Keystone Kops nature of the marketing effort.
Why produce collateral for something that isn't happening?

Where did you find that image?

Not sure. I was searching around for 2023 WTT qualifying events.

Japan isn't even sending their second team.

Still sending six age level world champs?

Japan is sending their F-G team like I was predicting.  The Emperor's Cup is way too important to potentially miss.  Especially for any of the wrestlers who graduated college already since this is their job.

Their best wrestler on that World Cup squad is Moe Kiyooka.  She's going to go 53kg in Dec at the Emperor's Cup like she did earlier this year, but as I said before....Shidochi put a beating on her in the finals.  She knows there's no way she's beating Shidochi, Fujinami, Okuno or even Irie and that's probably why she's competing at the World Cup. 

And I know you're going to ask, but Fujinami has been back to full speed and was training at National Team camp a few weeks ago.  53kg at the Emperor's Cup is going to be insane.

It's almost a ghost event.

Very, very little on google.

There will probably be a stream, but the one thing you have to remember is that these wrestling events in Japan, especially the Emperor's Cup and Meiji Cup are televised on national tv and are huge events.

[CA_Wrestler]

meaning...the stream will likely go down at some point because there will be a ton of people watching
