AEW has confirmed that AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker will face Anna Jay next week on Rampage.
The match came about after Baker interrupted Jay during a backstage interview. Baker called the Queenslayer and the Dark Order losers, to which Jay planted the champ with a solid forearm. A brawl broke out before the two were separated. They now clash on Friday, October 22.
Saturday Night Dynamite also featured Kiera Hogan going one-on-one with Penelope Ford. The two competitors put on a solid match, with both shining throughout. Ford’s ever-impressive gymnastic-assisted offence was too much for the AEW newcomer, who fell to a submission.
After the match, Ruby Soho hit the ring and Ford, hard. The attack was revenge for the brass knucks shot Ford delivered to Soho after her match with the Bunny.
Revenge was most definitely in the air as Tony Schiavone interviewed Serena Deeb backstage about her actions against Hikaru Shida. On last week’s edition of Dynamite, Deeb prevented Shida from becoming the first woman to reach 50 wins in AEW. After the hotly contested bout, Deeb attacked Shida, blasting her with the trophy.
Deeb stated that during her time away she watched the women’s division get comfortable. Now she is back with a new attitude to drag the division up to her level. However, Shida attacked the former NWA Women’s World Champion cutting the interview short and continuing this feud.
