WWE NXT Womens Champion Asuka recently spoke with Japanese reporter Enuhito and below are some interview highlights:
On what she is learning at the WWE Performance Center:
“Coaches here are teaching me a lot of things I didn’t know in Japan. Basics to advance techniques. Some of it is similar to what I was doing in Japan but rhythm or timing is little different in the States, so how I mix Japanese and American techniques to my style is what I need to work on.”
On her relationship with Japanese stars in WWE:
“I am in the same promo class with Hideo [Itami]. We need to do promos in front of other superstars and coaches, but it always turns out to be like a comedy show. Shinsuke [Nakamura] took me out to the beach with other superstars. Shinsuke gives me advices after checking my matches.”
What doe she eat in the States?:
“Now a day, I only eat Japanese food here! I miss Japanese food! Not so many good Japanese restaurants in Orlando. It’s difficult to find authentic Japanese restaurant.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
