After her unsuccessful bout with Toni Storm at AEW’s Double or Nothing, she dropped a series of pics on Instagram showing off her killer ring gear and that “just-crushed-it” post-match vibe.
Shirakawa started the photo series with a bang, striking a pose backstage with a victorious fist in the air while casually running her other hand through her luscious pink hair like a total boss.
Other shots showed that her gold and black sequinned two-piece wrestling gear wasn’t just an outfit; it was a statement, perfectly showing off her rock-solid abs and killer physique. And let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: thigh-high gold boots-meet-chaps that screamed, “I’m here to slay—literally and figuratively.”
“My AEW journey has just begun. Not stopping till I hold gold!!!!!!!!” Shirakawa wrote alongside the fun behind-the-scenes snaps.
