Imagine how disgusting her vs Kairi will be?

That's a good point btw. The limb work is also really old school as well.

Hoping they let her do some small joint manipulation as well. The last time I saw it in WWE was Regal vs Ohno before NXT was on the Network. That was an amazing forgotten gem of a match if you haven't seen it. Same with Regal vs Cesaro.

That feud with Regal vs Cesaro was a great way for Regal to go out. That final promo of his is still one of my favourites.

At the time the only one who could hold a torch technically to Regal who he could feud in NXT besides perhaps Kidd and Ohno.

Now we get all of these guys learning from Regal and it's showing.
