Sunday will mark the third trip inside the WarGames structure for Io Shirai.
One of pro wrestling’s most skilled performers, Shirai has excelled in NXT since her arrival in 2018. She crafted a spectacular run as women’s champion during a reign that lasted 304 days. After dropping the title in April to Raquel González, Shirai has worked in different spots on the card, including adding value to the NXT women’s tag titles during a brief run that lasted from July through October while she built rapport with Zoey Stark.
Shirai is a talent deserving of the main event, and she plans to deliver another unforgettable match at WarGames in the show’s signature match.
