It's just a matter of time until we see Kairi Hojo shaking things up in NXT's women's division & in the Mae Young Classic.
As we reported earlier in the week, Kairi Hojo finished up her dates with the company STARDOM in Japan and would be moving to the US to start training with WWE at the Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
Hojo was spotted at the recent NXT live event alongside former WWE superstar Funaki who helps translate for new signees who move to Japan to start with NXT.
She has agreed to a three-year contract with WWE according to Dave Meltzer.
She got her start in wrestling training with Stardom in 2011, graduating STARDOM’s third class of trainees, alongside Act Yasukawa, Natsumi Showzuki and Yuuri Haruka.
As one of STARDOM’s headline acts Hojo has won Artist of Stardom Championship three times, Goddess of Stardom Championship three times, Wonder of Stardom Championship one time, World of Stardom Championship one time, and won the 5★Star GP tournament in 2015 as well as the
Goddesses of Stardom Tag League in 2016.

We'll know for sure in 3 weeks if she's in the Tourney. They have 3 more announcements.I'm wondering if they hold off her debut for the tournament or they throw her into the mix sooner.
