Riho returns, confronts Serena Deeb on AEW Collision

Riho is back.

After quickly defeating her opponent on Collision, Serena Deeb issued a challenge to the AEW locker room, asking anyone on her level to challenge her. Riho came out and the two had a staredown.

Riho had been out of action since March 13, when she lost to Willow Nightingale in the main event of AEW Big Business. The following month, Riho revealed in an Instagram Stories post that she was currently in Japan and in the process of renewing her visa.

“I am currently in Japan for renew my VISA,” she wrote at the time. “I don’t know when I will return to AEW. Please stay healthy and enjoy your life until then.”

Riho had returned earlier in the year after taking another absence in December following AEW World’s End, where she was unsuccessful in challenging Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s Championship. Making her return in February, she picked up wins over Trish Adora and Kris Statlander before taking on Nightingale.
