Hikaru Shida Posts Photo At Airport: I’m Ready To Go Back To The USA

Shida is ready to come back.

The last time that three-time AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida was in action for All Elite Wrestling was on a November 2024 edition of Dynamite.

Since then, she’s been competing at independent shows in Japan, and most recently wrestled at an OZ Academy event on September 7th.

Shida took to X and shared a photo of herself at an airport. She captioned the photo and noted she’s ready to return to the USA.
