Women’s World title match added to AEW WrestleDream
The AEW WrestleDream card has another new addition with a Women’s World title defense now set for the Saturday, October 18 event.
Kris Statlander will defend the AEW Women’s World Championship against Toni Storm at WrestleDream in a new match announced during Wednesday’s sixth anniversary edition of Dynamite.
Storm defeated Tay Melo on Dynamite, then took the mic and challenged Statlander to a title match at the pay-per-view. After winning the Dynamite mixed tornado tag main event with Darby Allin over Wheeler Yuta and Marina Shafir, Statlander responded to Storm’s challenge and accepted the match.
Statlander became the Women’s World Champion by winning a four-way also involving Storm at All Out last month.
Three matches are now official for WrestleDream. The updated card is listed below. Our full play-by-play coverage of Wednesday’s sixth anniversary Dynamite is available here.
