Megan Bayne replacing Penelope Ford on CMLL show

Olympia vs. Megan Bayne

An injury in AEW has resulted in changes for CMLL.

Penelope Ford was scheduled to face Olympia this Friday at CMLL’s La Noche de Las Amazonas (literally, “Night of the Amazons”), an all-women’s show. Ford, however, suffered an ankle injury against the Babes of Wrath on AEW Dynamite last week. Though the injury is not believed to be severe, it is going to keep her off of this weekend’s card. 

Replacing her will be her AEW tag team partner Megan Bayne. It will be Bayne’s debut in CMLL, her first match in Mexico, and the first time she has wrestled Olympia.

Mina Shirakawa will also be in Mexico City, facing Zeuxis. This will be Shirakawa’s second appearance in Mexico, and technically the second time she has faced Zeuxis. Both wrestlers took part in the 18-woman Team Mexico vs. Team World Torneo Cibernetico at CMLL International Women’s Grand Prix at Arena Mexico last October. 

Olympia and Zeuxis have each appeared on AEW television a handful of times. Zeuxis wrestled a pair of matches against Mercedes Mone, losing both: once in an unsuccessful challenge for Mone’s AEW TBS Championship last June, and then losing the CMLL World Women’s Championship the next week at Grand Slam Mexico. 

Olympia then had a win over Taya Valkyrie last October before losing a challenge for Mone’s CMLL World Women’s Championship a week later. 

The card so far for La Noche de Las Amazonas:

  • CMLL World Women’s Championship Match: Mercedes Moné (c) vs. Persephone
  • CMLL World Women’s Tag Team Championship Match: Starlight Kid Mei Seira vs. Las Chicas Indomables (Lluvia & La Jarochita)
  • Copa Irma González 2026 Marcela vs. Princesa Sugehit vs. La Magnifica
  • Megan Bayne vs. Olympia
  • Zeuxis vs. Mina Shirakawa
  • Garra Negra & Keyra vs. La Catalina & Sanely
