You got a silver? Hit the floor, says Japanese wrestler's dad
While a trio of Japan's women wrestlers were left to celebrate medals at the Asian Games, one was ordered to hit the floor and start doing push-ups.
Kyoko Hamaguchi's reward for winning silver at the Doha spectacle on Monday night was a dressing down from her father, former wrestler Heigo Hamaguchi, and a humiliating taste of boot camp life.
In front of bemused passers-by the 28-year-old was ordered to remove the identity pass and silver medal hanging round her neck and lie flat on the blue carpet of the arena to begin her ordeal.
"I was pretty horrified," said Reuters photographer Caren Firouz who witnessed the episode. "I guess it just left me speechless."
Just moments earlier the gym instructor from Tokyo had been sobbing on the podium, the unwanted medal around her neck, having been beaten by China's Wang Xu in the final of the 72kg freestyle division.
Hamaguchi had been busy speaking toKelly Kelly
But would "Barbie" Blank be any better?
I guess not.
Anyway, she is VERY popular with the WWE/ ECW fans.
And I have to give this forner bikini model props for hanging in there since Vince restarted the ECW.
A lot of people have come and gone, but she has stayed the course.
WWE Diva Melina updates......
I hope that is the case and not a swerve, because I recall reading about Melina before she came to the WWE.
Melina said that she wanted to be a role model to the young latinas.
Well now she really can.
The bad thing is, that on June 23, 2008 Melina injured her ankle when she fell from the turnbuckle in a match where she and Mickie James took on Natalya and Victoria. Nothing really concrete yet, but the rumor is that she either fractured her heel or tore ligaments in her ankle and will likely need surgery.
Kelly Kelly - The Brisbane Interview
The star will join fellow wrestlers including John Cena and Randy Orton on a WWE tour across Australia in June.
Kelly found her way into wrestling via modelling while she in college studying to become a broadcast journalist, with hopes of becoming a TV anchor.
"I love [wrestling], I just love every day of it," she said.
"WWE contacted me through my modelling agency and they knew I had an athletic background so they sent me down to Atlanta, Georgia where they kicked my butt for a week straight and asked me if I wanted a job at the end of it."
At high school Kelly did gymnastics for 10 years until an injury forced her into cheerleading.
"I still get to use some of my moves so that's pretty good," she said.
Living the life of a professional wrestler working in one of the world's most high-profile pursuits is difficult, she said, with an almost constant training schedule and travel around the United States and overseas.
"Even on my off days now I'm still training, so I try to get into the ring and learn different stuff," she said.
