Mina Shirakawa has wrestled five matches under the NJPW banner,ဣ including a match for the IWGP Women's Championship against Mayu Iwatani in February 2024. During a recent interview with Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, Shirakawa explained what it means for her to be able to compete for NJPW. She also specifically singled out Mercedes Mone as the face o🎀f NJPW STRONG. Shirakawa says it is her mission to surpass Mercedes and stand out more in NJPW than "The CEO."
"I was a big fan of New Japan Pro-Wrestling. I love Jushin Thunder Liger and Tanahashi. This past February, I challenged for the IWGP Women’s Title. Before the match, I was impressed to wrestle for NJPW. It was my first time. It is very important for me. Now, Mercedes is the face of the New Japan STRONG Women’s Division. She is great. We protect the New Japan ring. I have to stand out more and more in New Japan STRONG, more than (Mercedes) Mone. That is my mission."
