7 Ups & 9 Downs From AEW Dark (Oct 20)

4. Diamante/Ivelisse vs. Kenzie Paige/Skyler Moore

Kenzie Paige Ivelisse

AEW is yet to confirm whether or not Ivelisse has actually signed with the promotion, though 'La Sicaria' claimed as much the other week. One would assume that Diamante would be in the same boat, given they're attached at the hip onscreen, and it was nice to see AEW's last women's tag team standing return to action against Kenzie Paige and Skyler Moore.

The bout didn't bring anything new to the table. There were a couple of rough spots early on and while the Women's Tag Team Cup winners are developing increased cohesion between the ropes, they ran through a textbook layout.

Ivelisse's rolling knee to the face was a sick finish. Her and Diamante are a good team and there's plenty AEW can do with them going forward, be it as singles competitors or in their tag team.
