Persephone Breaks the Door Down: CMLL Amazon Crashes Forbidden Door TBS Title Fight

Persephone is stepping into the spotlight in a major way. On Wednesday night, the current CMLL Universal Women’s Champion was officially chosen by CMLL to represent them at AEW’s Forbidden Door. She’ll enter the Fatal 4-Way Match for the TBS Championship, joining Alex Windsor and a yet-to-be-announced Stardom star.

Perse wasted no time making her intentions clear. She sent a direct message to the reigning TBS multi-champion—and fellow CMLL women’s champion—Mercedes Moné. The champ fired back on social media, setting the tone for a fiery clash at the O2 Arena on Sunday, August 24.

This is a huge moment for Perse, who has been carving her path as one of the breakout Amazons of CMLL. Beyond Forbidden Door, she’s already locked in for another international spotlight. On August 22, she heads to RevPro’s Global Wars event, where she’ll face rising UK talent Alexxis Falcon in singles action.

Forbidden Door is shaping up to be one of the most stacked cards of the summer, and Perse’s addition makes the TBS Championship bout even more unpredictable. With Moné at the top of her game, Windsor bringing a reputation for toughness, Stardom’s mystery entrant looming, and Perse with nothing to lose, this is one fans won’t want to miss.
