Stela Delgato walks into the frame of the many journalist flashing their shot, pushing microphones into her face, asking her about her thoughts on he big loss. She grabs a mic and pulls it to her face.
Stela- I blame Kem.
Instead of letting her walk off they pull her in and ask about how she feels about the big RISE GP tournament.
Stela- How do I feel? I feel I'm going to win, like I should've won tonight if that bumbling oof didn't rear her fat head into the mix! Now if you excuse me.
Stela pushes the mic out of her face and walks off.

It takes a moment before the video package finally comes to life. It’s night time. Pale rays from a street light rain down to illuminate two abandoned Toyotas resting in background. One is stripped down to its body metal and is held up by cinder blocks. The other is crumpled like an old candy wrapper. There’s a “clunking” sound far off in the distance. But it grows louder and louder with each passing second. Maybe twenty seconds later, Midori Miyamoto enters into the shot. Her attire was a little bit out of the ordinary for her: a short leather jacket, mildly distressed jeans, and a pair of Steve Madden Troppa boots. The “clunk” sound? It turns out to be the gruff rapping of a black baseball against the junkyard’s gravel ground. The camera zooms in on Midori. Her face? It’s a cocktail of emotions. Anger. Frustration. Tiredness. That’s just to name a few.
Midori Miyamoto: Let’s talk about heart for minute, okay?
Her tone is steady and stern. She tilts her head and looks directly at the camera.
Midori Miyamoto: “That girl has a lot of heart.” You’ve heard that phrase if you’ve spent any time in or around wrestling. Here in Japan, it’s commonly referred to as Fighting Spirit. Those two phrases get tossed around a lot. But what is heart, really? What is Fighting Spirit?
Midori Miyamoto: To show heart is to show courage. Professional wrestling is dangerous. We are faced with life and death situations each time we step into the ring. It would be easy to tuck your head and run away. But the courageous thing? That would be to stand and fight. That’s the measure of a true man or woman.
There’s a pause.
Midori Miyamoto: To show Fighting Spirit is to show perseverance. We also face hardships in this sport. They swallow some of us up. But others? We’re able to cast those hardships aside and stand tall. No matter how much pain we are in, no matter how much bullshit has been hurled our way, we’re able to keep scrapping...
Silence persists for a moment or two until Midori starts to speak once more.
Midori Miyamoto: Japanese wrestling was fortified by a number of pillars. Honor. Determination. Respect among warriors. You see these very pillars and traits inside the hearts of many wrestlers today. Ai, Mizuki, and myself are prime examples. People like Natsu Toyama and Momoko Honda are two others—
Her voice trails off for a moment.
Midori Miyamoto: And then there are hearts that are swallowed up by cowardice and darkness. KAGUYA-Gun…
She pauses for second.
Midori Miyamoto: I want to focus on Kyoko for a minute.
Hearing the woman’s name brings forth a look of disdain.
Midori Miyamoto: Kyoko—you disgust me. Your choice to join up with KAGUYA-Gun? It’s foul. This is the very same group that ruined your debuting match. The same group that savagely attacked you. The same group that tried to embarrass you, Momo, and myself at Sakura Blooming.
She shakes her head.
Midori Miyamoto: I’m not sure if you watch American basketball, but I’m sure you’ve heard of Kevin Durant, right? Kevin is an amazing player; some say he’s the second best player in the league. And yet, people hate his guts. Why? Well, Kevin and his teammate took the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Western Conference Finals during the 2015-2016 playoffs. There, they Thunder met up with the Golden State Warriors, who eventually beat them…
Midori Miyamoto: So what did the second best player in the NBA do? Did he rally his team and give them encouragement for the next year? Did he talk to management and see what changes could be made to the Thunder for the next season? Did he work on his game so that he could crush the Warriors?
She shakes her head once again.
Midori Miyamoto: No—he joined the Warriors. He went from being one of the most loved men in the NBA to one of the most hated, in a mere matter of minutes. It’s been a couple of seasons; Kevin has won a couple of NBA Championships. Any yet? People still view him as a snake and coward.
Silence persists for a second for two.
Midori Miyamoto: How people are going to view you, Kyoko? My best guess? They’re going to view you just like they view Kevin. They’re going to see you as a woman who could have fought back and stood up for herself, but instead chose to take the easy way out. And you should know by now, easy way out is never the best way, not in wrestling or in life.
Midori lifts up the bat. She wipes some dust off the end of it before she hoists it up and lets in rest on her shoulder.
Midori Miyamoto: I used to have some respect for you, Kyoko. Not anymore. The next time you cross me, you’re going to fall. And that goes for the rest of KAGUYA-Gun as well. I’m sick and tired of getting fucked with. I’m tired of them being a nuisance in this great company. So if I have to stand up and hunt each and every one of them down, then so be it.
She nods her head.
Midori Miyamoto: I haven’t been in JET long. I haven’t gotten the chance to meet Ms. Manami. However, I know that she worked hard to bring Joshi wrestling to the forefront of everyone’s mind. I know that she worked hard to make JET the stellar promotion that it is today. And I know that if she were in my position, she wouldn’t just stand by and let people run amuck.
Midori stares at the camera for a moment before. She then spins on her heels and starts to walk away. The video begins to fade out.
