Mina Shirakawa

Mina Shirakawa talks about her whirlwind AEW journey – from her surprise debut saving Mariah May in borrowed gear to adjusting from Japan’s quiet, focused crowds to America’s loud, expressive audiences. She shares the chaos of finding out about major matches with Mercedes Moné and Toni Storm hours before showtime, how her rivalry with Toni transformed into the “Timeless Love Bombs,” and what winning the ROH Women’s World TV Title meant to her. Mina also opens up about moving to the States, rescuing her Orlando street cat, and her biggest dream in AEW: becoming champion on a major stage with her parents watching for the first time.
