Riho Defeats Britt Baker, Earns AEW Women’s World Title Shot

During the November 26 episode of AEW Rampage, Riho shocked Britt Baker, as she took down the reigning AEW Women’s World Champion during a special Black Friday Deal Match to earn a shot at the title.

In a stunning victory, Riho survived a brutal attack from Baker from the very start. The champion looked set to dominate, and for a majority of the bout, she did; she threw her prospective challenger around the ring and stoped on the back of her head. Still, Riho survived long enough to flip the momentum, and she hit a huge suplex late in the match to gain some momentum.

After trash-talking back and forth, Riho avoided a stomp from Baker before she dropped her opponent with another suplex and nailed a double stomp off the top rope for a near fall. In the end, the former champion rolled up Baker for the win. With the victory, she has officially earned a shot at Baker’s AEW Women’s World Championship.
