The AEW Women’s World Championship match has been confirmed for AEW Worlds End.
During the December 20 episode of AEW Dynamite, former champions Riho and Saraya clashed to determine Toni Storm‘s new number one contender.
Saraya controlled the bout early on by going for pinfalls and hiding behind security at ringside. She then capitalized on the dirty tactics and slammed Riho around against the barricade.
After the break, it was mostly Riho’s showcase with several kicks and leaps off the top rope. A running knee strike finished things off as Riho pinned Saraya to win to secure her title shot on December 30.
Afterward, Toni Storm left commentary to confront Riho in the ring but Riho was able to take the champ down when things turned physical. Mariah May ultimately made the save and helped Storm back to her feet.
No new matches were announced for upcoming TV, but this Saturday’s Collision will include Thunder Rosa’s in-ring return as she teams with Abadon to take on Julia Hart and Skye Blue.
