Nyla Rose and Riho will square off to determine the company's inaugural Women's Champion when AEW makes its TNT debut on 2 October.

The Native Beast was the first to book her place in the title decider, when she prevailed ahead of 20 other women during All Out's Buy In Casino Battle Royal. Rose racked up a mammoth 10 eliminations, before finally chucking Dr. Britt Baker out with the help of the already ousted Bea Priestley.

Later in the evening, 22-year-old Riho withstood the onslaught of Japanese compatriot Hikaru Shida, eventually rolling her opponent up to bag the title match's second spot.

The pair will meet at Washington, D.C.'s Capital One Arena next month.

They previously faced as part of a three-way also featuring Yuka Sakazaki at June's AEW Fyter Fest, during which Riho sprung the upset on Rose. Her beaten foe will be looking for a semblance of revenge when the two clash in her home town for AEW's big TV bow.
