Tony Khan speaks on Mina Shirakawa's time in AEW.
Mina Shirakawa has played an important role in AEW's Women's World Title picture this year as a close ally to Mariah May. She also challenged Toni Storm for the belt at AEW x NJPW Forbidden D꧋oor.
💧Ahead 𓃲of AEW Full Gear, Tony Khan spoke on a media call about the possibility of Mina Shirakawa being around AEW longer than her upcoming appearance at the next pay-per-view. Tony said he's optimistic Mina will be around longer and says STARDOM is open to that move as well.
"I am optimistic to keep Mina with us a lot. Mina Shirakawa fits in very well in AEW and she has been a great part of the show. We’d like to have her here as much as possible. Coming up after Full Gear, I’m optimistic that Mina Shirakawa can join us more frequently and we’ll see what that can be as far as her schedule with AEW and STARDOM simultaneously. We have a great relationship with STARDOM now and I love working with STARDOM, Mr. Okada, and the great Bushiroad executives. Mina Shirakawa is a great star for STARDOM and also, now, a great star for AEW in America and all over the world. I feel Mina Shirakawa adds a lot to AEW and I would like her to stay indefinitely, more regularly, and be with us more frequently. Thankfully, STARDOM is open to that and they’ve been very kind about opening her schedule up to us. I expect to see Mina Shirakawa a lot in AEW going forward."
