We officially have a name in place for Rossy Ogawa’s new promotion – Marigold.
STARDOM’s co-founder, who was released by the company earlier this year, said he had a new promotion in the works. Ogawa and the new company held a press conference to introduce Marigold, full name being DREAM STAR FIGHTING Marigold.
