Another Japanese Talent In The Mae Young Classic

Backstage Heat On Alicia Fox
Mike Johnson of PWInsider says that there is still some backstage heat on Alicia Fox. Here is a quote (via Ringside News):
“They haven’t been happy with her since she got into the verbal scuffle with Travis Browne over WrestleMania week. I don’t think it’s because it was Travis Browne or Ronda Rousey. It was, “you caused a scene on WrestleMania week” and people who have caused scenes over WrestleMania week in the past whether it be Rhino or 2 Cold Scorpio or others — they usually end up on the outs because it’s WrestleMania and the last thing Vince McMahon and the company want to worry about that week is a headache.”
