Serena Deeb Says Nobody’s Challenged Her Yet, Claims To Be The Final Boss

I think Meiko Satomura would have something to say about this!!

Serena Deeb recently returned to action and since then she has continued to be undefeated. She also has boasted herself as a gatekeeper to the women’s division in AEW.

On this week’s Collision, Deeb continues to say that nobody is on her level. She invites anyone to come and step into her dojo and find out. 

Serena Deeb would round out the promo calling herself “The Final Boss.” 

“Not only am I undefeated, I’m undeniable, and I’m unstoppable. Putting on a clinic after clinic every single week here in AEW. Let’s be honest, nobody has really challenged me in the ring yet, and it makes sense because I am ‘The Professor of Professional Wrestling,’ ‘The Woman of 1000 Holds.’ To be honest, I don’t think the competition that I’ve faced so far would even know the difference between a wristlock and a wristwatch. So if you’re listening, if you’re watching, if you consider yourself one of the best, step into Deeb’s Dojo. Step into my home turf. Test yourself against the most elite wrestler, because I’ll be here each and every week showing the world that nobody can do what I do in the ring and why I am ‘The Final Boss.”

Although it is Satomura who calls herself the Final Boss, someone else has been known as The Boss and that is Mercedes Moné. Moné is expected to make her AEW debut on March 13.

AEW Revolution Predictions: 03.03.24

AEW is set to have their next pay-per-view event and its annual installment of Revolution on March 3. There’s two women’s matches on the card with one being on the pre-show.

Willow Nightingale & Kris Statlander vs. TBS Champion Julia Hart & Skye Blue – Zero Hour Preshow

Toni Storm (c) vs. Deonna Purrazzo – AEW Women’s World Title

Below, you will find the predictions of these matches from us here at Diva Dirt.

NICK: Outside of Toni vs. Deonna it is clear that zero thought was put in for other women when it comes to this event. Not surprising but still upsetting.

Anyway, this match is fine for what it is but nothing is overly exciting about it. I guess if they are going to continue with Willow or Kris around the TBS Title they would pick up the win here, but honestly the champion should be winning this match so I am going to go with that.

WINNERS: Julia Hart and Skye Blue

COLBY: Thank god they added a second women’s match somewhere on this card as there were more than enough options with as many storylines that are ongoing. I was also hoping for something with Saraya/Ruby, but it seems that one is still simmering. Nevertheless, we’ve got Kris and Willow teaming up again as they appear to be re-entering the TBS title picture. They’ve won more tag matches together than they have lost, so it feels like the odds are good that they will keep that momentum going and get a win back after Skye beat Kris on Dynamite. I’m going with the babyfaces here whether it’s for more story development from Stokely or to get Kris a shot at Julia, or both.

WINNERS: Kris Statlander & Willow Nightingale

NICK: I will give credit where it is due, this has been nicely built. The thing is, will it payoff? We see time and time again where AEW brings in a well known talent and they have a title match and then off to either ROH or shuffled so far away from the title scene it is odd. So this time, I feel Deonna NEEDS to stay on top and needs to win this.

WINNER: Deonna Purrazzo

COLBY: I honestly can say this is the most excited I have been for an AEW Women’s World title match in some time. I’ve enjoyed Toni Storm’s “Timeless” character work, but one complaint I’ve heard regularly is the belief that the gimmick doesn’t need the title. I can agree, but I will also give props to AEW for actually crafting an enticing story here between Toni and Deonna by using their real-life history and turning it up for their opposite characters. With that said, I fully welcome a title change. Deonna has proven her worth in AEW in a short time, not to mention the incredible run she had in IMPACT over the last few years. With Mercedes on the way, I say it’s time to shake things up.

WINNER: Deonna Purrazzo

Who do you have as the winners of these matches? Discuss below.

Dakota Kai Turns On Bayley; Tiffy Time Was Up For Naomi

Dakota Kai Turns On Bayley; Tiffy Time Was Up For Naomi

Dakota Kai was a snake in the grass the whole time!!

On the March 1 episode of SmackDown, Kai was returning to in-ring action as she teamed with Bayley to take on The Kabuki Warriors. Bayley has been lured into a false sense of security thinking that Kai had her back, but she should’ve known better. Kai wouldn’t even enter the match as she dropped from the apron when Bayley went for the tag.

This betrayal led to Bayley fighting off the tag team champions herself but then she went right after Kai. The numbers game became way too much for Bayley as her WrestleMania opponent and the WWE Women’s Champion IYO SKY joined in on the attack. The four members of Damage CTRL stood tall after picking apart their former leader.

Moments later and backstage, Damage CTRL runs into Jade Cargill with Cargill and SKY exchanging some words before Nick Aldis pulled Cargill into his office.

Tiffany Stratton continues her momentum on the main roster and as a member of SmackDown. She took out Naomi first in the Elimination Chamber and she grabbed a win against the veteran tonight.

The match heated up and was a great back and forth but could have been given more time if it wasn’t for Roman Reigns and The Rock talking for the first 40 minutes of a two hour show.

The final moments had Stratton rake the eyes of Naomi without the referee noticing. Stratton threw her shoulder first into the ring post and then hit her P.M.E. for the win.

Torrie Wilson Talks Former Ring Gear And Inspiration

WWE Hall of Famer, Torrie Wilson, sits down with McKenzie Mitchell on her YouTube page on Threads.

She discusses the 2018 Royal Rumble moment where she was afraid people wouldn’t remember her. Wilson got emotional at that event when fans chanted “Thank You Torrie.”

SmackDown March 1 Preview: Dakota Kai Returns To In-Ring Action

The first episode of SmackDown in March has a big match to witness!

It is planned for Dakota Kai to return to in-ring action to team with Bayley to face former Damage CTRL teammates The Kabuki Warriors. This is where Kai will show where her true allegiances lie. Kai has been out of action from an ACL injury since May.

Here’s a recap, when The Kabuki Warriors and the WWE Women’s Champion IYO SKY turned on Bayley, Kai wasn’t present. When Kai showed up the following week she had a lot of explaining to do. She did so, but also showed in her actions with a steel chair in hand to keep back the three who turned on Bayley.

Moving forward, the newly formed trio version of Damage CTRL, sent a threat to Kai that they would take her out. Last week, despite no one seeing the attack take place, Damage CTRL attacked Kai in the locker room. She was taken to medical where Bayley met up with her. Bayley told her that she will have her back.

Now we will see, as we are just a month away from WrestleMania XL, how trustworthy Kai really is.

Mercedes Moné Responds To Giulia: “You Know Where To Find Me”

Could we be seeing both Mercedes Moné debut in AEW and also become an instant champion?

Perhaps.

On Thursday, Giulia made a statement to Tokyo Sports in regards to the NJPW STRONG Women’s Title. A championship that was originally designed with Moné as inaugural champion in mind. However, due to injury in that match, it was won by Willow Nightingale. Since July, Giulia has held the title since defeating Nightingale. Now, Giulia has confirmed she will be leaving STARDOM at the end of March and will be a free agent. Who will she drop the title to?

Well Giulia told Tokyo Sports the following –

“I have been thinking ever since I won the belt that I have to put this belt on the line and beat Moné to overturn this saying. I can’t tell you right now where I will go from here, but I will continue to defend this belt until I find Moné.”

Moné has since responded, saying that Giulia knows where to find her and hints that it is at AEW’s Big Business where she is expected to debut in her hometown of Boston on March 13.

“You standing on big business or u just standing around! You know where to find me Julia.”

Giulia is set to defend the NJPW STRONG Women’s Title at a STARDOM event on March 10 just days before AEW Big Business against Stephanie Vaquer.

Aminata will face the winner between Leyla Hirsch and Red Velvet.

On the other side of the brackets we will still get to see match-ups between Abadon vs. Mercedes Martinez and Diamante vs. Billie Starkz. Starkz is determined to become champion and according to the ROH Women’s World Champion, she better win…or else.

Knockouts World Title Match Set For TNA Sacrifice

Tasha Steelz and Xia Brookside looked to settle their score on the February 29 episode of IMPACT, however things didn’t quite go according to plan.

Brookside showcased her offense early on with strikes, dropkicks, and a crossbody. Steelz stomped on Xia in the corner before grounding her with a headlock. Xia then hit Broken Wings (running double knees) in the corner before they spilled to the outside.

While scrapping on the floor, the referee counted to 10 and ruled the match a double count-out. They both rolled back in to confront the referee when Jordynne Grace came out to the stage.

Grace noted that both women clearly want a title shot and announced that she will defend her title against them in a three-way at TNA Sacrifice a week from Friday on March 8.

Elsewhere, we saw a mysterious vignette from Decay.

We also know that Ash By Elegance will be in action next Thursday, plus Masha Slamovich will take on Dani Luna.

Skye Blue Upsets Kris Statlander On AEW Dynamite

The February 28 episode of AEW Dynamite saw Kris Statlander go one-on-one with Skye Blue.

Statlander showed off her strength to start before Blue dumped her out of the ring. In response, Statlander sent her into the crowd. Back inside, Blue took control again until Statlander suplexed Blue on the apron.

Willow Nightingale and Julia Hart came face-to-face prior to Blue landing a Canadian Destroyer for a nearfall. When Stokely Hathaway attempted to get Stat to use a chain, Julia Hart capitalized off of the ref being distracted and bashed Kris with the TBS Championship. Skye then hit Code Blue to steal the win.

Looking ahead, Deonna Purrazzo and Toni Storm will appear on Saturday’s Collision just 24 hours before their AEW Women’s World title match at Revolution.

Not Everything Has To Be About Becky Lynch; Lynch vs. Jax Next Week

Things are heating up in the Raw women’s division following the Elimination Chamber event.

Becky Lynch, who won the chamber and will go on to face Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania XL, has seemingly put a target on her back. Needless to say, people aren’t happy that she won.

To start off Monday’s Raw, Ripley took to the ring and Lynch would eventually join her. Becky calls Dominick a kumquat and the women traded words back and forth. Ripley congratulated Lynch from her chamber win as she said she finally won something to get on her level.

Post-promo, Nia Jax attacked Lynch.

Jax and Liv Morgan were booked for later in the show. Keep in mind Lynch was still upset about Jax’s attack on her from earlier in the night. The match ended in a disqualification when Lynch attacked Jax by repeatedly using the announce desk to come into contact with Jax’s head.

After the attack, Morgan was shown enraged that her match was cut short. Backstage a few moments later, Lynch was talking with General Manager Adam Pearce demanding a match with Jax. This is set for next week.

As Pearce walked away, Morgan showed up and shouted at Lynch that she was in the middle of something out there and not everything needs to be about Lynch.

On Raw Talk, Morgan was being interviewed about her obstacles since coming back. She said whether it is Jax or Lynch it doesn’t matter. Her last stop on her revenge tour will be Rhea Ripley and the Women’s World Title. She won’t cry about it, just watch her.

Other results of the night included Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark defeating Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae. Baszler and Stark weren’t too happy that Hartwell and LeRae got the title opportunity at Elimination Chamber. They say the only reason why a team they continue to defeat had that chance was because Hartwell is Australian.

The final moments of the match had Hartwell go down in the Kirifuda Clutch.

In a WWE Exclusive we see that LeRae is frustrated and wonders why as former champs they can’t win a match. Hartwell tries to comfort her but she says that it is WrestleMania season and they are running out of time.

Baszler and Stark also were on Raw Talk and continue to send a message to The Kabuki Warriors.

Lastly, Chelsea Green took on Raquel Rodriguez in a quick match. Rodriguez also has her eyes set on WrestleMania, but where does she fit in?

Piper Niven is out due to an injury.

According to a report by Fightful Select, former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Piper Niven, has sustained a hand injury in the last month and hasn’t been around as of late. The fear internally was that she had a broken hand. 

Niven wasn’t featured in the Elimination Chamber Qualifying Last Chance Battle Royal, which led to many questioning on where she was. She has not been in action since a loss on Main Event alongside Chelsea Green earlier this month.
