Riho vs Nyla Rose – AEW Dynamite
A big match for a number reasons but none more so than crowning the inaugural AEW Women’s Champion.
The opponents could not have more different and therefore made for an intriguing spectacle. Nyla Rose, the monster heel with brutal power and strength towered over Riho, the high-speed high-flying Joshi superstar.
The match was set at AEW’s first PPV, All Out in August when Nyla Rose outlasted 19 other wrestlers in the Casino Battle Royale. Riho would defeat Shida later on in the show and become the next challenger for the title on the first-ever episode of AEW Dynamite.
The two had met previously in an AEW ring at Fyter Fest in a triple threat match along with Yuka Sakazaki. Riho would get the surprise win in that match rolling up Rose for the 3-count. Rose would exact her revenge and immediately destroyed the two Joshi stars cementing her heel status in AEW.
The dynamics of the match were simple, Rose was the dominant monster heel and Riho was the smaller underdog that must overcome insurmountable odds to survive let alone win.
The match was full of high-flying, hard-hitting and breath-taking spots, with Nyla showing off her power, strength and agility while Riho was tenacious, courageous and valiant.
