CHRIS BENOIT'S CHALLENGER AT BADD BLOOD REVEALED, JOSHI PURORESU STAR TO RECEIVE WWE DARK MATCH
by Mike Johnson @ 10:22:00 AM on 5/5/2004
Eric Broz sent word that radio commercials in the Columbus, Ohio market are advertising WWE World Heavyweight Champion Chris Beniot vs Kane as well as the Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H Hell in a Cell match for the Badd Blood PPV.
In a move that will no doubt please our own Tim Whitehead, Joshi Puroresu star Takako Inoue is scheduled to work a WWE dark match at the San Diego is scheduled to work a dark match at the 5/17 Raw taping in San Diego, California. A former WWWA Tag Team champion, Inoue has been working for about 15 years and is a tremendous worker. I would assume her working the show is partially the doing of John Laurinatis who is familiar with the Japanese scene, but I am not sure on that. For more on Inoue, you can visit this link.
Special thanks to Frank Pozen for his help with the Takako Inoue story.
Well, I'm Quite suprised that Benoit is going to take on Kane, As i thought that the way thing's are going it seem's to be hinting on a Jericho/Christian facing Benoit on PPV :confused: Also seeing as Kane is Pretty much feuding with Matt and Lita, I dont understand how Kane Vs Benoit can Happen?! Unless Kane and Matt is just a Mini Feud, and Jericho/Christian is going to finish at the PPV Badd Blood, Other than that I'm really not shure. I'm shure that Benoit could put on a good match with Kane (Seeing as Eddie can put on a Good match with JBL Who has next to 0 Talent), Look's like Kane's push is starting up again.
As for Takako Inoue, She's a Awesome Joshi Puroresu worker, Which is Basically a Female Wrestling Organisation like GAEA. The Worker's in that promotion really do Wrestle and put on some Great Match's. So for people Unshure who she is, Here's a Background Info on her! IMO I hope that the WWE Pick her up, I really would like to see her tie it up with the like's of Victoria and Gail Kim, As i think that they could put on some cracking Woman's Match Up's.
