After a tumultuous ending on last week’s AEW Dynamite, the show celebrates its 250th episode as the women look to continue some grudges heading towards All In next month.
Mercedes Moné had issued an open challenge next week for her TBS title, and the one to answer her call is an AEW Original herself, Nyla Rose. Moné and Rose have been going back and forth on Twitter, with The Native Beast stating that she is ready to crash through a precious Mercedes.
But first, we get a glimpse of Moné with Young Bucks and Kazuchika Okada flaunting her Moné dance for the Rainmaker.
The two lock up and Rose’s size and strength advantage catch Moné in the corner, but The CEO as always is very quick-witted. Moné does everything she can to best Rose but gets caught on the ropes for Rose’s patented legdrop.
The two go back and forth and Moné locks in an Octopus Hold to wear down Rose. Rose powers out and Moné gets crushed by Rose’s offense. Moné finds an opening in the corner and hits her signature Meteora. The two lock arms and Moné finds a way to hit a springboard bulldog.
Moné pulls out a CEO glove, shades of one Britt Baker, and taunts to the crowd with a “C.E.O.” She looks to go for her Crossface finisher but ends up locking in the Lockjaw to retain her title.
Showboating in her win, an anonymous member in the crowd holds up a “DMD > CEO” sign. And speak of the devil, it is none other than Baker herself. The two try to lay hands on each other, but security breaks them apart saving this fight for another day.
After a shocking betrayal at the hands of Mariah May, the new Owen Hart Cup tournament winner looks to speak out on why she brutally attacked her mentor, the AEW Women’s World Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm.
Storm’s music hits, but in the Timeless One’s place is May posing in all of Storm’s ambience. May says that everyone saw it coming, except for Storm. The moment she saw Wembley, she waited for the right moment to strike and says that she can be Storm, albeit so much more. And that her greatest performance has yet to come, as she wants to take Storm’s AEW Women’s World Championship at All In.
What did you think about AEW Dynamite 250? What did you think of the CEO vs The Native Beast? Can May truly steal Storm’s performance? Who will prevail at All In? Let us know below!
