Tony Khan Was Bullied Into Changing Mina Shirakawa’s Theme Song While Dynamite Was Airing Live, AEW Collision Card (5/17/25)
Mina Shirakawa has secured a shot at the AEW Women’s Championship.
At AEW Dynamite: Beach Break, Shirakawa emerged victorious in a four-way AEW Women’s Title Eliminator match, overcoming the current champion Toni Storm, as well as AZM and Skye Blue.
The match concluded with Mina countering Storm’s big package move into an even bigger package, scoring the three count.
As a result of this win, Shirakawa will challenge Storm for the AEW Women’s Title at AEW Double or Nothing.

Fans watching AEW Dynamite: Beach Break might have noticed that Mina Shirakawa used two different entrance themes during the event. She debuted a new theme for her entrance, but after her victory, her original theme played instead.
Tony Khan later confirmed on social media that he decided to switch back to her old theme following online backlash from fans upset about the new music.
I already switched it back #AEWDynamite

The enigmatic spider, previously seen on AEW Dynamite during a women’s segment, made another appearance during a match on this week’s show featuring Toni Storm, Skye Blue, AZM, and Mina Shirakawa.
This spider seems to have a particular interest in multi-competitor matches, having first appeared during the four-way bout between Toni Storm, Thunder Rosa, Anna Jay, and Penelope Ford on the May 7, 2025 episode of Dynamite.
