Megan Bayne has secured a golden opportunity to challenge Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s World Championship after an impressive victory over Kris Statlander in the main event of “AEW Dynamite.” With this win, Bayne is now set to collide with Storm at AEW Dynasty in what promises to be a high-stakes battle.
The road to this match has been nothing short of intense. In a pivotal moment last week, Bayne ambushed Storm on the entrance ramp, just as the champion was addressing the AEW audience after successfully retaining her title against Mariah May at AEW Revolution. The confrontation sent a clear message—Bayne was ready to step into the title picture.
During Bayne’s match against Statlander, Storm provided commentary, closely observing her potential challenger. Meanwhile, Penelope Ford was in Bayne’s corner, but her repeated interference led to referee Aubrey Edwards ejecting her from ringside.
Inside the ring, the two powerhouse wrestlers engaged in a physically demanding contest, trading heavy strikes and high-impact maneuvers. Bayne delivered a devastating Falcon Arrow, but Statlander displayed resilience by kicking out. In a thrilling turn of events, Statlander launched herself outside the ring with a cannonball, but Bayne cleverly redirected her into Storm at ringside, further escalating the rivalry.
As the match reached its climax, Bayne executed a thunderous F5, sealing the victory over Statlander. With momentum on her side, she turned her attention to the AEW Women’s Champion. Storm, now back on her feet, wasted no time retaliating—she wrapped her right hand and launched a flurry of punches at Bayne. AEW officials quickly intervened, separating the two competitors before tensions could spiral further.
Never one to shy away from theatrics, Storm grabbed a microphone and fired off her signature witty remarks, officially challenging Bayne to a title match at AEW Dynasty. With both women determined to prove their dominance, this upcoming showdown is shaping up to be an electrifying contest for the championship.
