Mina Shirakawa is heading to Mexico next month to compete in the CMLL women’s Gran Prix.
The annual Grand Prix is an elimination match pitting Team Mexico against Team World. Last night, CMLL announced the first participants with Zeuxis set for Team Mexico and Shirakawa representing AEW as part of Team World. More entrants will be announced in the coming weeks ahead of the Grand Prix being held at Arena Mexico on October 24.
Shirakawa officially joined AEW on a full-time basis earlier this year following her departure from Stardom. She headlined ROH’s Death Before Dishonor event last Friday, unsuccessfully challenging Athena for the ROH Women’s World Championship.
Currently, Shirakawa is the interim ROH Women’s TV Champion with Red Velvet sidelined due to injury.
Zeuxis has been out of action since June but is now returning after undergoing knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus. She was working through the injury when she lost the CMLL Women’s World Championship to Mercedes Mone this June.
Representing Team Mexico, Reyna Isis was the winner of the 2024 women’s Grand Prix. Red Velvet and Willow Nightingale were among the Team World competitors.
The men’s edition of the 2025 Grand Prix took place last week with Mistico being crowned the winner.
