In a clash that would make even the most seasoned sushi chef drop his knife, Hikaru Shida sliced and diced her way to victory in a high-octane four-way match on the August 31 edition of “AEW Collision.” Facing off against Serena Deeb, Queen Aminata, and Thunder Rosa, Shida didn’t just bring her A-game—she brought the whole alphabet. The decisive moment came when Shida pinned Queen Aminata, cementing her status as the number-one contender for Mercedes Mone’s TBS Championship at the upcoming All Out event on September 7.
This bout was a rollercoaster, folks! All four competitors took turns flirting with victory like they were on a bad dating show. The final stretch? It was like watching four people argue over the last slice of pizza. Rosa dished out a Death Valley Driver on Shida that had the crowd gasping, only for Deeb to break up the pinfall faster than you can say “Boston Crab.” Deeb then tried to turn Shida into a human pretzel, but Aminata wasn’t having any of it—delivering a headbutt that could probably be felt in the cheap seats. Just when it looked like Aminata might steal the win, Shida unleashed her Katana, proving that sometimes, it’s all about having the right sword at the right time.
Now, Shida and Mone are set for a rematch that promises to be as thrilling as a rollercoaster ride—only with fewer safety regulations. The “CEO” Mercedes Mone has been burning the candle at both ends, recently defending her TBS Title against Britt Baker at All In and her NJPW Strong Women’s title at Capital Collision. Now, she faces Shida once again, and let me tell you, folks, this is going to be yuge.
Also on the All Out card, we’ve got Bryan Danielson defending the AEW World Championship against Jack Perry, and Will Ospreay putting the AEW International Title on the line against PAC. But let’s be real: Shida vs. Mone? That’s the match to watch. Get your popcorn ready, people—this is gonna be tremendous!
