Mina Shirakawa wins interim Women’s TV title at ROH Supercard of Honor
An interim ROH Women’s Television Champion has been crowned.
Mina Shirakawa is the new interim champion after submitting Miyu Yamashita with a figure-four leglock to become champion in a four-way match also featuring Persephone and Yuka Sakazaki. She will meet current champion Red Velvet in a match at a later date to determine the undisputed champion.
The interim title match was announced this week after Tony Khan confirmed that Red Velvet would be out of action due to injury. The Worldwide Wild Card International four-way match was announced shortly before Friday’s event in Arlington, Texas.
Prior to the match, Red Velvet in a backstage interview said that nobody’s more frustrated about the situation than her and the countdown to the new champion losing the title back to her has begun. She said that she would be at ringside to watch the match. After Shirakawa won the title, the two confronted one another on the entranceway, setting up their future bout.
Velvet’s last match took place at CMLL’s Fantastica Mania event last month where she defeated Kira.
