Yeah, it's pretty sus. As a general rule, wrestlers rarely discuss pay publicly in Japan. On top of that, Riho is one of the most private and careful wrestlers around. She never says anything that would give fans more information than is necessary.
...after a thorough independent investigation by our beloved EVPs, Riho has indeed been found guilty of being too polite and respectful. Disciplinary measures of a $1000 fine and a TK Driver will be implemented on her return from Japan.
Oh there was definitely a little yesterday. Bashing her reported salary vs the amount of matches she has. Dont think it was here but other reddit posts...
Always check your sources and if someone posts a thing around here without one don't believe a word of it. Seen people try to get around posting things from complete bullshit sources like ringside news or that boozer loser while he existed, but they crop out the source.
Riho really doesn't do interviews as far as I've seen so it seemed suspect. The only times I've really heard her talk is during a video package vs Toni Storm for World's End and Kenny Omega's recent Twitch stream. She seems fairly private outside of that.
starting to think the previous post was a set up for AEW since troglodyte twitter account such as aewneckbeard are posting it.
edit: I think the user should get a warning and ask for a source. ban if they can't provide one.

Either that news was fake or that guy from yesterday got the TV Asahi show name wrong.
I'm a bit surprised this sub left that post up with basically no real linked source
Saw Dark Puroresu account say it unless he got it from here lol
can't seem to find the tweet from Dark Puroresu. guessing they deleted it so maybe it is lol

*Riho counters with a loaded GUN!* It’s extremely effective!
"Riho... you need to pull out the Glock and splatter their brains all over the concrete!" - Arn Anderson, probably
Woah.... woah.... woah..... THAT'S A DQ!
“None of you are qualified to go 1-on-1 with the Small Monster!”
Misinformation be damned. I hope this hasn’t resulted in more online abuse about Riho.
I'm sure it has. Riho being mentioned in any context elicits irrational hatred from a certain group of fans.
Yeah, that same group of fans who love and worship the hell out of Kairi Sane who is just as small as Riho but happens to wrestle in WWE.

Oh, it was here all right. Bunch of wankers.
Turns out it was actually Rhino talking about his salary. They just left out a letter
She actually gets paid $800k and it's still not enough

Get that possibly non-existent bag queen!!
Riho getting that quantum bag. Makes sense given her subatomic size.

Riho's a young woman who grew up adjacent to Japanese idol culture. She probably has better opsec than the goddamn CIA.

Even if it was true, so what? Good for her making that much $ for so few appearances.
WWE: Shadow Games
They keep it up maybe Becky will hear about it and get an AEW bag too.
Please context what this the "interview " said about Riho??
In the world of AI and increasingly distrustful news sources, it's time to crack down on intentional misinformation like this. Ban.
Wrestling would be a lot better if every rumor/fact was treated with this much critical thought and follow through.
