As PWMania.com previously reported, Willow Nightingale captured the CMLL Women’s World Championship at CMLL X NJPW FantasticaMania USA.
Nightingale spoke with the company shortly following the show and commented on her huge championship win.
Nightingale said, “The last time I wrestled in CMLL was actually also my first week in CMLL.” “But do you want to know what happened when I showed up? I freaking won. I beat the current CMLL Champion at that point, Stephanie Vaquer. Stephanie’s not here; the championship’s vacant. Who’s going to step up? No one else but Willow Nightingale, duh!”
“My spirit was actually a little broken coming in here. AEW, my friend turned on me. I just lost my last match. I really needed a win, and today, I didn’t just get a win. I walked out an international champion.”
