Mizuki, on the other hand, is looking to make a strong impression in her AEW debut. For those unfamiliar, Mizuki has primarily competed in TJPW, where she is the current Princess of Princess Champion. She captured the title with a win over former ROH title challenger Yuka Sakazaki.<\/p>\n<p>Though Mizuki has proven herself against elite competition, I do not see her picking up the win here. Most of Emi&#8217;s losses in singles action have been to either active or former champions. She also holds a victory over Mizuki, having competed against each other in DPW.<\/p>\n<p>Mizuki could prove me wrong and pull off the upset, but I will stick with Emi getting back in the win column. It will be a great match worth tuning in for!<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><em>Photo Header Credits: All Elite Wrestling.
