Here’s what you missed from AEW Dynamite: Winter is Coming.
In a match that was labeled as 101 days in the making, Ruby Soho finally had the chance to go one-on-one with Tay Melo for the first time in their careers. They last crossed paths at All Out where Soho broke her nose. In this clash, there was no love lost as Melo attacked Soho on the ramp before the bell. Once the bout officially started, the two scrapped and targeted each other’s noses throughout. In the end, Soho counted the Tay-KO and connected with Destination Unknown to secure the victory.
Post-match, Soho wasn’t able to celebrate for long as Anna Jay attacked her from behind. Perhaps Soho could use some backup?
The December 21 episode of Dynamite will have the “Holiday Bash” theme as Jamie Hayter will defend the AEW Women’s World Championship against Hikaru Shida. This will mark their first-ever singles match together after crossing paths in tag team matches at the All Out four-way title match that was won by Toni Storm.
Before that, though, Britt Baker will compete on this Friday’s Rampage when she takes on Skye Blue. This match came about after Blue interrupted Baker’s backstage interview to point out how much she runs her mouth.
