Japanese Star Aya Koyama Passes Away After Battle With Cancer

Published

on

Some sad news to report today as Japanese wrestling star Aya Koyama, known as Aliya’, has passed away early this morning at the age of 45 after a battle with stage IV cancer, which was announced by Women Of Honor Champion Sumie Sakai on Twitter:

The 20-year veteran got her start back in 1996 using her real name and competed for a few big promotions such as All-Japan Pro Wrestling, All-Japan Women’s Wrestling, Big Japan and even Mexico’s CMLL. During a break from the ring in 2001, Koyama decided to step into the octagon and garnered a 4-9-1 record for companies like Smackgirl and DEEP before getting back into wrestling in 2005 using the name Aliya’. Through out her career, she competed alongside and against stars such as Manami Toyota, current WWE Superstar Asuka, Aja Kong and a host of other Japanese legends.

Her final matches came while she was fighting stage IV cancer. The Chairshot would like to extend its deepest condolences to the friends and family of Aya Koyama.

Former WWE Star Reveals How Company Tests Wrestlers for an “Attitude Problem”

Published

on

A former WWE star took to social media to explain, in brief, how WWE evaluates its talent to determine whether they have an “attitude problem.” The post offered a glimpse into the company’s behind-the-scenes vetting process, suggesting that behavior and professionalism are actively monitored during a wrestler’s time with the promotion.

While the explanation was limited, the revelation underscores WWE’s focus on maintaining locker-room culture and managing talent dynamics. Fans and industry observers may read the post as further evidence that character and conduct behind the curtain can be as consequential as in-ring performance.

Wrestling fans and insiders are abuzz after a match at WWE Backlash was accused of “copycatting” a formula previously used by an independent wrestler, a situation some are calling a new “clone war” in the industry. The controversy highlights growing concerns about creative overlap between major promotions and the indie scene.

The debate raises questions about originality and recognition, with observers wondering whether mainstream companies should acknowledge or adapt indie ideas more transparently. As the story spreads, fans and performers alike are watching to see how promotions handle influence, credit, and creative borrowing moving forward.
