Momentum has never been so in favor of the former gravure idol who is set to make her United States wrestling debut on Friday, October 28th, for NJPW of America’s Rumble on 44th Street. One of the biggest victims -and survivors- of this convention is STARDOM’s Mina Shirakawa.Īfter an eye opening performance throughout the entire 5 STAR Grand Prix tournament, Shirakawa has a date with destiny where she’ll challenge for the Wonder of Stardom Championship on November 3rd. Both viewpoints reduce the woman to a shallow concept instead of the complex human she is.

Their progress is ignored either by people who can only value the female wrestler for her beauty and sensuality, or people who despise her for being happy with such aspects of her life. Their efforts are often downplayed because “she’s just a model”. While this is clearly the right direction, it has also fostered a curious train of thought in which a female wrestler whose persona revolves around her conventionally attractive physical appearance is somehow less worthy of praise. The term “diva” is a distant, bizarre memory from a different stage of society, and the focus is set on in-ring action and compelling, badass characters.

In an era of women’s wrestling advocacy and validation, gone are the days where the sole objectification of its competitors was widely encouraged and celebrated. Mina Shirakawa: Beauty is Devotion The Cosmic Angel is no stranger to being overlooked but, above all things, she won’t lose hope.
