Mina Shirakawa reflects on kicking a champagne bottle out of Mariah May's hands while wearing heels.
Mina Shirakawa and Mariah May's friendship came to an abrupt end at AEW Full Gear. What was supposed to be a champagne celebration wound up being punctuated with broken tables, blood, and busted-up champagne bottles.
After Mina realized that Mariah May was going to turn on her by hitting her with the champagne bottle, she swiftly kicked the bottle out of May's hand, despite the fact that she was wearing heels.
Reflecting on that moment while speaking with Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, Mina said that many of the girls in the locker room were impressed and noted that she trains in kickboxing.
"Many girls said (they were impressed). It was very hard. In Japan, I train kickboxing and striking. It felt nice kicking."
Unfortunately for Mina, she wasn't able to defeat Mariah May for the AEW Women's World Championship at AEW Dynamite: Winter is Coming.
