This was the first time these two women had faced off in an AEW ring, and they delivered a match worthy of the anticipation.

The bout commenced with electrifying back-and-forth action, each competitor eager to establish their dominance. Skye Blue showcased her in-ring prowess early on, executing a neckbreaker maneuver that left Statlander ensnared between the top and middle ropes.

The competition soon escalated as it spilled to the ringside area, where Blue managed to maintain the upper hand.

Tide Turns

However, the tide turned once the action returned to the squared circle. Statlander regained her footing and executed a stunning Blue Thunder Bomb, nearly securing a victory but for Blue's resolute kick-out.

Not to be outdone, Blue retaliated with a thunderous Power Bomb as she lifted Statlander from the top turnbuckle, setting the stage for an exhilarating finale. Skye Blue then took a high-risk gamble, leaping off the top rope for a crossbody block.

In a breathtaking moment, Statlander caught her mid-air and countered with a devastating power slam. The reigning TBS Champion then connected with her signature move, the "Saturday Night Fever," sealing her victory and the title defense.

In a display of sportsmanship following the heated competition, Statlander extended her hand to help Skye Blue to her feet. However, before she could offer her assistance, Willow Nightingale made an unexpected entrance, barring Statlander from aiding her vanquished opponent.

Nightingale and Blue then exited the ring as a unit, leaving fans speculating on the potential alliance and what it could mean for the AEW Women's Division. This hard-fought match and its subsequent developments have far-reaching implications for AEW.
