AEW All In 2023: 10 Things That Must Happen
4. Saraya Becomes Women’s Champ
Ditto.
Why not, eh? AEW’s female ranks are a bit of a mess overall, and Hikaru Shida feels like a transitional champion more than anything. Despite being heel, winning the Women's Title on home turf would be a sweet moment for Saraya in front of her family. It'd also surely get a booming pop!
Keep in mind that Saraya thought she was done as an active wrestler several years back. Her All Elite arrival came as a complete surprise to some, but it's still waiting for that one killer moment to make everything worthwhile. Going over in this four-way, and hoisting the belt high above her head as tears fell, would do just that.
If AEW are in the mood, then they could even script some salty words between Saraya and Toni Storm post-match. The Outcasts ain't gonna last forever anyway, and Saraya vs. Toni is as good a match as the division has heading into 2023's final quarter.
