Io Shirai

Io Shirai WWE Diva

A find of WWE’s Mae Young Classics, Io Shirai is another high-flying talent from Japan who has been working with the WWE under their NXT programming. Japanese wrestlers are someone whom WWE is promoting a lot and a talent like Io Shirai can never fade away.

The high-fliers are often considered as the show steelers but in the long run, they do not possess consistency with their performance. However, Io Shirai’s status chants something else and her in-ring abilities are nothing short of genius.

Shirai’s stock-in-trade includes Moonsaults, Hurricaneranas, and Springboard drop-kicks. This is definitely expected from a diva who cites inspiration from Rey Mysterio. It is just the start for this young lass in the WWE and after an immaculate success in the independent circuit, sky is the definitely the limit for Io Shirai.
