10 HUGE AEW Fight For The Fallen Predictions You Need To Know
6. Bea Priestley/Britt Baker Vs. ???
Friday night saw AEW confirm that both Dr. Britt Baker and Bea Priestley "will be in action" at Fight for the Fallen via separate Twitter announcements. This is an interesting move that presents a number of possibilities, particularly when you consider that other established talents like Nyla Rose, Yuka Sakazaki, Riho haven't been scheduled for the event.
The advertisements suggest squash matches could be on the cards, but that'd bring the danger of repetition. A mystery opponent angle could work too, though placing a big name in one of the surprise spots would almost necessitate a loss - unideal for the debuting Priestley and much-hyped Baker. Similarly, would they really bring somebody like Sadie Gibbs in just to lose on her very first show?
Considering all this, let's assume that Baker and Priestley end up wrestling each other. Yes, AEW would be burning a potentially big match, but who says they need to deliver a definitive win or loss, even with their apparent hatred of screwy finishes? A double countout would work well to preserve both AEW's preferred presentation style and the wrestlers' integrity.
Winner: No contest.
