4 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Rampage (Oct 21)

1. Willow Nightingale Becomes #AllElite

Take a bow, Willow Nightingale.

Impressing on an absolutely rammed AEW women's division isn't always easy. There are only so many TV spots to go around on Dynamite and Rampage, which means Willow has had to settle for more showings on Dark and Dark: Elevation. Somehow, she managed to turn heads during brief cameos on the bigger shows.

Tony Schiavone entered the ring following Nightingale's brief but well-worked bout vs. Leila Grey and revealed that she'd inked a full-time contract with the promotion. That, unsurprisingly, earned a polite cheer from the fans inside Daily's Place.

AEW's hardcore fanbase really likes Willow, and rightly so. She has something about her, and should make a fine addition to the core women's crew for a good few years to come. Fingers crossed she gets a title reign at some point in the future.

This was a lovely moment.
