Maika will be part of the match for the vacant AEW TBS Championship, winning a Survival of the Fittest Qualifier at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door: The Buy In. Maika faced off with Skye Blue during the pre-show for Sunday’s PPV with STARDOM President Taro Okada sitting ringside to observe the match.

Julia Hart came out with Blue for the match but was sent to the back by the referees. Maika took over early on in the match before Blue battled back, and it went back and forth between them. The end came as Mika hit a brainbuster on the apron, then rolled Blue in and hit a Hammerlock Michinoku Driver to get the victory.

You can see clips from the match below. Maika now moves on to AEW Dynamite where she will face Hikaru Shida, Persephone, Kris Statlander, Harley Cameron, and Queen Aminata for the vacant title, which was relinquished by Willow Nightingale due to injury in May.
