00:00And earlier, it's going to be Andrade going up against Darby Allin.
00:04We're having that match on last because knowing those two guys,
00:07they may tear the ring down, tear out the announce table.
00:10Who knows what's going to happen coming up?
00:12No countouts.
00:14And Mina Shirakawa, a much different vibe,
00:20much different personality from Mina Shirakawa
00:22after what happened last week to time as Tony Storm.
00:25Yeah, concerned, I would think.
00:27I mean, don't really know her that well,
00:29but there's probably some major concern for me, for sure, about Tony.
00:32And the fact that apparently she got some more flowers coming in,
00:36angry about that as well.
00:38And I think it's a good thing.
00:39I think you need to be very physical against Tekla
00:42and have a very, very tough demeanor against her
00:45because you know how she is.
00:48Shirakawa applying pressure to the AEW Women's World Champion
00:50and fans coming up on Wednesday, April 15th.
00:53We'll be headed to Seattle, Washington.
00:56The only DDT by Mina Shirakawa,
00:58Angel of the Winds Arena.
01:00Then the following week,
01:01we head down to Portland, Oregon,
01:02the Veterans Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday, April 22nd.
01:05And then on April 29th,
01:08Fairfax, Virginia, Eagle Bank Arena.
01:10And the following Saturday,
01:11Peoria Civic Center in Peoria, Illinois.
01:14All of that and so much more.
01:15Available right now, AEWTIX.com.
01:18We're scanning the QR code at the bottom of your screen
01:19as Mina Shirakawa
01:23taking the fight
01:24to the AEW Women's World Champion, Tekla.
01:27Tekla.
01:28Yeah, it's smart.
01:29Smart strategy by Mina just to be extremely offensive
01:33and intense
01:36against someone like Tekla,
01:38who's unpredictable.
01:40We have not seen Mina smile at all.
01:44And that is so unlike her.
01:46And that just really puts emphasis
01:48on the demeanor that she has in this matchup.
01:52Orneal over that top.
01:54Far like hooks.
01:55Cover made, but Tekla able to kick out.
01:58Has that no-holds-barred match last week at Dynamite.
02:00I know you were watching from home.
02:02Mina Shirakawa cracking that champagne bottle
02:05over the head of Marina Shafir,
02:07landing the Storm Zero,
02:08getting some measure of revenge
02:10against Marina Shafir,
02:11who just 10 days ago
02:12landed that cheap shot
02:13on Thomas Tony Storm at Revolution.
02:15Absolutely.
02:16And Mina with the bottles
02:17and sandlash for sure.
02:19Oh, dropped toehold.
02:21I'm not sure.
02:21I think maybe Mina blocked
02:23hitting that rope with a face,
02:24I believe.
02:25Oh, she didn't block that, though.
02:27Yeah, got the arm up.
02:28You're right, Taz.
02:29And this is what makes
02:31Tekla so special.
02:33Just physical and so quick.
02:35Yeah, when someone like Tekla,
02:37she's trying to use those ropes as a weapon,
02:39which they are,
02:40regarding a dropped toehold face-first
02:42into the,
02:43maybe a German suplex here.
02:44Oh, no, Mina
02:45drops off the apron,
02:46went to sweep out the leg,
02:48did sweep out the leg
02:49the second time,
02:50and now Shirakawa,
02:51Rebels champion in her drift.
02:53Oh, Lordy.
02:54DT
02:55as this AEW
02:57Women's World Championship match
02:59continues live on Dynamite.
03:00I'm fighting for Johnny.
03:02I'm fighting for that.
03:03I'm fighting for myself.
03:08A lot of emotions
03:09pouring out of Mina Shirakawa.
03:12Taz,
03:13when somebody so close to you,
03:14like Timeless Tony Storm,
03:16is to Mina Shirakawa,
03:17is injured like that,
03:18it's hard to keep things bottled up.
03:20It is,
03:20especially when you don't know
03:22who did it.
03:22So if that's your best friend
03:24or family member
03:25or what have you,
03:26gets attacked,
03:27you know,
03:28and laid out and destroyed
03:29and no one knows
03:30who did it,
03:31now,
03:31you look at everyone
03:32like they're the ones
03:33who did it.
03:34Yeah.
03:34Kind of hate on everybody.
03:35And I like the fact that
03:36only she says,
03:37I fight for me as well,
03:39which means she wants
03:40to be world champion,
03:41obviously.
03:42I mean,
03:42she knows what the big prize
03:43is out there.
03:44And she's got an opportunity
03:45right here,
03:46live on Dynamite.
03:49Mina Shirakawa,
03:50she's been a bridesmaid before,
03:52so to speak.
03:53She is challenged
03:54for the AEW Women's World Championship.
03:56She has never claimed the title.
03:58Tonight could be the night.
03:59Rapping fire strikes.
04:01A double-handed chop by Shirakawa.
04:05Yeah,
04:06you just got to be careful
04:07with someone like Tekla.
04:08She's crafty.
04:10She's right there.
04:10It was a quick reversal.
04:11Could have been playing possum
04:13for a second.
04:13I think she was.
04:14Oh, shit.
04:15There's Tekla now.
04:17Diving stomp.
04:20Firmly planting those feet
04:21into the back of Mina Shirakawa.
04:23I'm gonna dance.
04:24I'm gonna dance.
04:25There you go.
04:26She's mocking Mina right there.
04:29You can do it.
04:31You can do it.
04:32You can do it.
04:33You can do it.
04:35Mina, we typically see her
04:37with the big production
04:39on her way to the ring.
04:40The dance,
04:42the music,
04:42the synchronized moves.
04:43I think flamboyancy
04:44is the word you're looking for.
04:46Get yourself at the source.
04:49That will work.
04:50Why would he need one
04:51when you're to his right?
04:53I've missed you, Tans.
04:56Yes, the flamboyancy for Mina.
04:58She wasn't.
04:59You're right.
05:00And I think like we've been discussing, right?
05:01Next, Calva, she's...
05:02It's got to be Rhett in space in the head.
05:04I'll tone it.
05:04That's got to be Rhett in space.
05:07Tekla catching the challenger flush with that shot.
05:11Now, cocky cover made by Tekla,
05:14but Shirakawa able to kick out.
05:16Yeah, I guess she feels like she has complete control,
05:18Lex Calva,
05:18so she could do that type of a...
05:21you know,
05:23lackadaisical cover.
05:24Have you ever covered anyone like that
05:26in a match years ago with Lex Calva?
05:28No.
05:28Me neither.
05:29But also,
05:30I'm not a toxic spider either.
05:32No, I know.
05:32She's got her own way.
05:33She does her thing,
05:34and it's working.
05:35She's the women's world champion.
05:37Attacking the face of Mina Shirakawa.
05:39And think about what Tekla has done
05:40since becoming AEW women's world champion
05:43earlier this year.
05:45Defeating not just Thunder Rosa,
05:47but Chris Statlander as well
05:49in that best two out of three falls match
05:50ten days ago.
05:51That's a great point.
05:52That's a great point.
05:53That's impressive, man.
05:55We've had many great women's world champions,
05:57but I feel Tekla's the most violent one we've had.
06:06The AEW women's world championship title
06:09hangs in the balance tonight
06:10live on Dynamite.
06:11Mina Shirakawa,
06:13heart on her sleeve,
06:14challenging the toxic spider.
06:16Tekla for the championship,
06:18and let's take a look
06:18at what happened during the break
06:20between these two women.
06:21Right there.
06:23Right on the open back.
06:24Baby's shoulder area.
06:25Low middle of the back.
06:26Tough to tell.
06:27Big stomp off the apron,
06:29and then mocking Mina
06:30after she does that,
06:31and then she's been in control since.
06:32Tony, yeah,
06:33I was going to say
06:33the turning point
06:34of this match for the champion.
06:36Yeah, let's not forget
06:37these two ladies
06:38knew each other from stardom.
06:40They're very familiar
06:41with their styles,
06:42and Mina had to realize
06:43even though she came in
06:44with a lot of...
06:50She's not mocking Tony Storm.
06:52Women's wrestling promotion
06:53in Japan,
06:54which both Mina Shirakawa
06:56and Tekla were part of,
06:57the promotion
06:58which Tekla was fired from
07:00for attacking the president
07:02to come physically
07:03attacked the president.
07:05That is how unstable
07:06this woman is.
07:07I respect that.
07:09I've...
07:09I've been...
07:10There have been many promoters
07:11I wish I would have attacked.
07:12One of them I choked out.
07:13Yeah, I wish you
07:14choked out more than one.
07:15And let's take a look
07:16at some of the great matches
07:17we've got coming up
07:18in Collision, guys,
07:19as this match goes on.
07:20We're returning live
07:21on Saturday
07:22on TNT at 8 o'clock.
07:23How about this?
07:24Divine Dominion
07:25will put the EW Women's World
07:27Tag Team Championship
07:28on the line
07:29against the former champion
07:30The Babes of Rant
07:31live this Saturday
07:32on TNT and HBO Max.
07:34Ace Austin,
07:35Tommaso Ciampa
07:36live from Cedar Rapids.
07:37Oh!
07:38Tekla was looking
07:39for the spear,
07:40but Shirakawa shut her down.
07:42And now Mina
07:44uncorking some right hands
07:46on the head of the champion.
07:47That emotion
07:48is coming out right now.
07:51Yeah, she's got her moment
07:52right now.
07:52Well, good reversal.
07:54Tekla reverses,
07:55but was she all there
07:57because Shirakawa
07:58countered with the sling blade,
07:59Taz?
08:00Yeah, she did.
08:01Mina's got to just
08:02try to keep on flowing
08:03with this.
08:04She has the champion rocked
08:06and we could crown up
08:07a new champ right here.
08:11And Mina
08:12with the back elbow
08:13into the corner.
08:15Tekla
08:16very unsteady
08:16on her feet.
08:18Mina making the ascent.
08:21And...
08:22Wow!
08:22Kick!
08:23On target
08:24from Shirakawa.
08:25Cover made.
08:26Leg is hugged
08:28and Tekla
08:29beats the count.
08:31Yeah, not sure,
08:32Shivani,
08:32if Tekla realized
08:33how close she was
08:34to the rope,
08:34but she could've
08:35put a foot there,
08:36but that's me saying
08:37that's sitting here.
08:37She got out.
08:38That's all that mattered
08:39for her.
08:39Yeah, but these two
08:40know each other so well.
08:41Taz, I was thinking
08:42the same thing.
08:43That shotgun dropkick
08:44sent her all the way
08:45to the rope,
08:46but she kicked down anyway.
08:48But just the years
08:49and started
08:50for these two females,
08:51they know each other,
08:52they know what
08:52their strengths
08:53and weaknesses are.
08:54Got a modified
08:55single leg crab
08:56here, X-Cobbler.
08:57But all the leg
08:58trapped underneath.
08:59Tekla was able
09:00to make the crawl
09:01to force the break
09:02by the referee
09:03by grabbing the ropes
09:04as Shirakawa
09:06could be doing this
09:07all in service
09:08of setting up
09:08for that figure four
09:09leg lock.
09:10And if I know it,
09:11I think that means
09:12Tekla knows it.
09:13She was able to
09:14kick out of it,
09:15but oh,
09:15the back fist.
09:16Whoa.
09:17Tekla
09:19landed with that
09:20right hand.
09:21Shirakawa.
09:22Oh!
09:23Rolling shot
09:24from Mina Shirakawa.
09:25Mina on the move,
09:26but Tekla
09:27lands the spear.
09:31Man, as physical
09:32of a women's
09:33world title match

09:53Taz.
09:53Yeah.
09:54Low center of gravity,
09:55got low with it,
09:56drilled up.
09:57Oh, she's taking
09:58her belt off.
10:01Tekla.
10:02See her use
10:03that belt.
10:04Yeah,
10:04Mike Posey's
10:04got to get in here.
10:05Yeah,
10:05good job.
10:06It's the last
10:06Chris Statlander
10:07before she had
10:08the same thing.
10:09That belt
10:10might fit Posey.
10:11What does she have
10:12now?
10:12Tekla with...
10:13Oh,

10:23of the belt

10:24with the insecurity.
10:26Tekla.
10:26Oh,
10:26wild swag,
10:27but Mina...
10:28That's an urken.
10:29Mina landed
10:30at the back fist.
10:32Looking for a German
10:33suplex perhaps.
10:34Tekla trying
10:35to anchor herself
10:35to the ropes.
10:37And now...
10:38Oh,
10:38Tekla!
