Willow Nightingale Comments on Winning the CMLL Women’s Title

Willow Nightingale said she needed a win, and she walked away like a champion.

At NJPW x CMLL FantasticaMania USA, AEW’s Willow Nightingale won a Triple Threat match for the CMLL World Women’s Championship. The title was vacated on July 10 after reigning champion Stephanie Vaquer left CMLL.

In her post-match comments, Willow Nightingale shared her thoughts on her win.

“The last time I wrestled in CMLL, it was actually my first weekend in CMLL, but you want to know what happened when I showed up? I fucking won,” Willow Nightingale said. “I beat the current CMLL Women’s Champion at the time, Stephanie Vaquer. Stephanie’s not here, the championship is vacant. Who’s gonna step up? None other than Willow Nightingale, duh.

“Man, we’re here in San Jose. Your girl is tired. You know, my spirit was actually kind of broken when I came in here. AEW, my friend turned on me. I just lost my last match. I really needed a win, and today I not only got a win, I walked out as an international champion.”
