Maybe Hailey Hatred, one of Stardom's best ever American exports, was unavailable?

Someone explain this one to me why an active Stardom USA wrestler is also president Answer: This is professional wrestling. It's completely in keeping with the fine traditions of professional wrestling to have the head of the company be a key part of the roster. Think of Vergne Gagne and the AWA, the Von Erichs, Jerry Lawler and Memphis wrestling, the Funk brothers and their promotion in Amarillo, TX. In this case, Melissa's not the owner of the company, but it's a great opportunity for her to learn all of the back-office aspects of the business while she is still an active wrestler, and considering that she was able to put on the shows and draw respectable crowds in a very tough market proves that the faith that Stardom had that she was the correct person for the job was entirely well-placed. She done good!
