Friday’s Grand Prix de Amazonas 2024 event for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre at the Arena Mexico in Mexico City, Mexico featured this year’s Women’s International Grand Prix Elimination match featuring twenty competitors in total for Team Mexico and Team World. Among those competing for Team World was Willow Nightingale.
CMLL announced earlier today that Nightingale had suffered a concussion injury during the Women’s International Grand Prix match.
It was also announced that as a result of her injury, they have pulled Nightingale from their events this weekend in Mexico City.
“We regret to inform our loyal fans that AEW superstar, Willow Nightingale, will not be able to participate in Sabado de Arena Coliseo and Domingo Familiar in Arena Mexico as planned due to a concussion suffered during her participation in the Women’s Grand Prix. In line with the concussion protocols established for both CMLL and AEW, Willow must abstain from both dates to ensure her well-being and full recovery.
For tonight’s event at El Embudo de Peru 77 (Arena Coliseo), CMLL World Champion Zeuxis will take Willow’s place, while tomorrow at Arena Mexico, CMLL Women’s Universal Champion 2024 Persephone will take her place in the ring.
We thank all our fans for their understanding and we assure you that these two champions will provide the show and quality that characterizes our wrestling. See you at Arena Coliseo and Arena Mexico to enjoy the best wrestling in the world!”
