A week ago fans witnessed Riho try to become the first 2-Time AEW Women’s World Champion when she challenged Jamie Hayter, but she ultimately fell to that Hayterade Ripcord Lariat. It was a tremendous fight, one in which both women earned the victory, but only one woman could win, and that was the defending champion.
Obviously The Outcasts had their eye on the title fight, waiting to see who they would have to target moving forward, and although Renee Paquette tried to get a little clarity on just which member of the unit would be the one to challenge, all that Saraya, Storm, and Soho gave on the subject was that they’d sort it out among themselves.
Well this Wednesday on DYNAMITE, two of the three will be in action as Ruby Soho and Toni Storm tag up to face Willow Nightingale and Riho! Nightingale recently fell to Soho on DYNAMITE, fighting with a bit of a broken heart knowing a woman she looked to as friend and mentor had betrayed her, as well as the women of AEW. Willow also dropped a pair of fights to Toni Storm this year, while Riho actually topped Storm a few weeks back. To be fair, Ruby Soho does hold an Owen Hart Foundation Tournament victory over Riho from May 2022, but clearly neither of these women are the same animal they were a year ago.
So in this ongoing struggle for dominance in the AEW Women’s Division, the tag match going down this Wednesday night in Milwaukee will shape how that battle continues to play out! It could be a moment for the Originals to get a leg up on The Outcasts, especially after Nightingale’s heartbreaking losses to Storm and Soho, or one to further assert Outcast dominance as they pursue another championship challenge against Jamie Hayter!
