STARDOM star Mina Shirakawa spoke with Proresu Today on a number of topics, including how she gambled on herself by showing up in AEW as she is not getting any younger, so she is always thinking about what she needs to do to make her way up in the limited time she has.
Shirakawa said, “This is already a gamble. It is a gamble to make myself shine. I’m not getting any younger, so I’m always thinking about what I need to do to make my way up in the limited time I have. If I refuse the offer, there may not be another one. I had a gut feeling and decided to go. However, the offer from AEW was simply that they wanted me to come for one month, and that was it. There was nothing specific about which matches I was going to participate in or how many matches I was going to play. There was even a possibility that no matches would be scheduled. We didn’t know until we got there.”
