Ruby Soho Arrives In AEW!
Former Ruby Riott returns to wrestling and wins big at AEW All Out!
Ruby Soho is #AllElite!
Soho was the surprise entrant in and winner of All Out's Casino Battle Royal that featured former AEW Champions Riho, Nyla Rose and Hikaru Shida, as well as current Champion Britt Baker's associates Rebel and Jamie Hayter.
Soho secured her victory by last eliminating Thunder Rosa to line up a title match against Baker following her own win over Kris Statlander earlier on the pay-per-view. A popular figure for years on the independent scene before rising to increased prominence in NXT and WWE, Soho was given a thunderous response from the All Out crowd, suggesting that she'll make for a popular challenger whenever the pair collide.
The former Riott Squad boss hasn't wrestled since a 28th May loss to Natalya and Tamina alongside former partner Liv Morgan. A series of vignettes had dropped in recent weeks that featured her missing a train and leaving her old Heidi Lovelace moniker behind.
Soho is the first "Joker" to win the company's trademark multi-wrestler match since Brian Cage earned a TNT Title Match from his ladder match debut at Double Or Nothing 2020. Hangman Page secured a Championship match at Double Or Nothing 2019's first rolling out of the stipulation. AEW are yet to confirm when the battle for the strap will take place.
