AEW Women’s Tag Team title tournament sees surprise finish

The initial field of eight in the inaugural AEW Women’s Tag Team title tournament is now down to six following Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite.

Former TBS Champion Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron pulled off a bit of an upset by defeating reigning TBS Champion Mercedes Mone and ROH Women’s World Champion Athena to advance to the semifinals.

The end came when Athena hit a Samoan Drop/fall away slam on both Nightingale and Cameron for a near fall. That brought out Billie Starkz to help Athena which then brought out AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander to lay her out and chase Mone, her challenger at Full Gear, around the ring.

Athena was about to use her title belt but Nightingale hit her with a Doctor Bomb followed by Cameron’s finisher to get the win to advance.

The two will now face the Sisters of Sin (Skye Blue & Julia Hart) with the winner moving onto the finals (date yet to be announced). The other side of the bracket has yet to begin with the dates for Riho & Alex Windsor vs. Toni Storm & Mina Shirakawa, and Anna Jay & Tay Melo vs. Marina Shafir & Megan Bayne yet to be revealed.
