Skye Blue added to AEW All Out Casino Battle Royale

Posted on by Ethan Renner

Another participant has been added to Sunday’s All Out Women’s Casino Battle Royale. 

Skye Blue was announced as the latest participant at tonight’s AEW Dark tapings. 

AEW CEO, GM, President and Head of Creative Tony Khan made the announcement following Blue facing Red Velvet in a match taped for Dark. The crowd reaction for Blue was reportedly so overwhelming that she was offered the All Out spot. 

Blue, 25, has worked as an enhancement talent for AEW in the past, losing to Britt Baker and Abadon on two episodes of AEW Dark: Elevation taped in April. She returned to the company this week, losing to Riho at Wednesday’s Dark: Elevation tapings. She also appeared on this week’s NWA events, defeating Christi Jaynes at Empower, then losing to Melina and Kiera Hogan at the next day’s TV tapings.

21 women have been announced for the Battle Royale. That should be the entire lineup, unless an angle is shot to add a mystery participant.

Anna Jay returns to AEW TV on Dynamite

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Anna Jay returned to AEW tonight on Dynamite, aiding Tay Conti from a Hardy Family Office attack.

Conti had defeated Penelope Ford on tonight’s show, but was attacked after the match by both Ford and The Bunny. The Dark Order’s music then played as Jay came out and chased away both Ford and Bunny.

It was announced immediately after Jay had made her return that Tony Khan had added her to the Women’s Casino Battle Royal that will take place at All Out this Sunday. The winner of that match will receive a shot at the AEW Women’s Championship.

Jay has been out of action since February with a shoulder injury. At the time, it was estimated that she would miss 6-12 months. The following month, she underwent surgery for the injury.

Signing with AEW in 2020, Jay aligned herself with the Dark Order and was seen on television forming a friendship with Tay Conti.
