The January 10 episode of AEW Dynamite emanated from Daily’s Place and featured a big eight-woman tag team match: Thunder Rosa, Kris Statlander, Willow Nightingale, and Anna Jay vs. Skye Blue, Julia Hart, Saraya, and Ruby Soho.
Ruby and Anna started the tag bout, but the heel team ended up in control by the time the commercial break came around. Harley Cameron tripped Willow off the ropes allowing for Skye to go on the attack.
After the break, we were treated to a quadruple suplex spot. From there, everyone took turns hitting their signature moves until Jay and Hart came face to face and duked it out. Ultimately, Jay trapped Blue in the Queenslayer to score the submission victory for her team.
Backstage, Renee Paquette spoke to Toni Storm to get her reaction to what happened last week. Mariah May quickly interjected and asked if Storm watched her in-ring debut. The champ made it known that she only saw clips of May’s match and nothing else, meaning she was not aware of Deonna Purrazzo‘s debut. When Paquette explained what happened with Purrazzo, Storm said the name sounded familiar and asked for Luther to set her up a meeting with “The Virtuosa.”
Renee later spoke to Purrazzo, who said she’s still on “cloud nine” from her big debut. Regarding what Storm said, Purrazzo will have “her people send her people” a screener as Deonna will make her Collision debut this Saturday. Red Velvet interrupted and made it known she’s making her Collision debut this Saturday as well, seemingly setting up a singles match. Purrazzo made fun of Velvet’s “stirring” before exiting.
It was also announced that Friday’s Rampage will include Hikaru Shida vs. Queen Aminata, while Battle of the Belts IX on Saturday will see Anna Jay challenge Julia Hart for the TBS Championship as a result of her win on Wednesday.
