2025 Dreams: Tokyo Dome
After my match with Hazuki, I took a moment to share my dreams for the new year. I’m craving more opportunities and more gold, and, oh yes, I’m headed to the Tokyo Dome on January 5 for Wrestle Dynasty! But here’s the thing—who’s stepping up to face the CEO? None other than the incredible Mina Shirakawa!Now, where do I even start with Mina! When I first touched down in Japan in 2018/2019, Rey Mysterio’s gear maker reached out to me, saying, “You need to meet Mina; she’ll show you around!” And from that moment, we just clicked. Mina was such a sweet soul, and she took me on an amazing tour of Japan, opening her world to me. Every time I return, she’s right there, introducing me to new experiences, new sights, and new adventures.
So, when I threw down the challenge, I was over the moon when she accepted! Mina made it clear: everyone wants a piece of her, and she’s gunning for my championship. But here’s the twist—she’s got a title that I want too. January 5 is going to be monumental as we go title-for-title at the Tokyo Dome.
Let me tell you, Mina and I are so thrilled about this match that we danced our hearts out! Wrestling in the Tokyo Dome has been a dream of mine since I was just 13 years old, and honestly, I can’t help but tear up as I write this.
Come January 5, you better believe I’m bringing every ounce of passion, fire, and strength in my soul, and I know Mina will do the same. This championship match is going to be one for the ages, and I can’t wait for all of you to witness it! See you in the Dome!
