There Is More to Kairi Sane’s WWE Return That Likely Won’t Come Out Until Next Year

KAIRI, formerly known as Kairi Sane, is making her return to WWE.

KAIRI is expected to return to WWE sometime in November after she finishes up her NJPW/STARDOM shows.

She signed with WWE in 2017, where she found success in NXT and on the main roster. She is a former NXT Women’s Champion and former Women’s Tag Team Champion with Asuka. She departed from WWE officially in 2022 after returning to Japan in 2020.

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that there’s more to this story than what’s currently out there.

“Yeah. So, in her situation, there is more to the story, and it probably won’t come out until 2024, but there’s more to the story. But the gist of everything is that there are a lot of different moving parts going on in Japan that probably helped make the decision. She said that she had multiple offers, which tells me AEW was in as they should have been. I think AEW would’ve probably allowed her to live in Japan or at least be in Japan and go back and forth. Whereas WWE, she’s gonna pretty much have to stay, but, you know, she knows WWE. She’s never been to AEW. WWE is the major league to people who’ve never, you know, as a general rule. So she went back to WWE…..She’s pretty much only got a few shows left in Japan.”
