With AEW's quest to crown its inaugural Women's Tag Team Champions having now come to an end, Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron were left standing tall at last night's Winter is Coming edition of AEW Dynamite.

The conclusion of an eight-team tournament, the final saw Willow and Harley's Babes of Wrath take on Toni Storm and Mina Shirakawa, aka the Timeless Love Bombs. Clocking in at just under 14 minutes, the finish here had Cameron hit Mina with Her Finishing Move before Nightingale landed the Babe with the Powerbomb on Mina for the 1-2-3.

Post-match, Renee Paquette interviewed the Babes of Wrath in the ring, with Willow Nightingale putting over the tough fight they'd had, and how Harley Cameron had been there for her throughout a hard year. Harley then pointed out that her second-ever match was sharing the ring with Willow, as fireworks went off as part of a landmark celebration. The Timeless Love Bombs reentered the ring, but it was simply to offer a handshake and a hug, and to congratulate their opponents.

Elsewhere on Dynamite, the Continental Classic's Gold League had Kazuchika Okada pick up a win over Jack Perry, and 'Speedball' Mike Bailey got somewhat of an upset win against Kyle Fletcher; 'Hangman' Adam Page and Swerve Strickland teamed up to beat Powerhouse Hobbs and Katsuyori Shibata in a tornado tag bout; and the main event had Eddie Kingston pass out against AEW World Champion Samoa Joe after the Samoan Submission Machine locked in his patented Coquina Clutch.
