Willow Nightingale vs. Taya Valkyrie set for AEW Rampage
A singles match is set for next week’s Rampage.
Willow Nightingale will meet Taya Valkyrie following a confrontation the two had on Saturday’s Collision.
Nightingale was talking to Lexi Nair about how she was feeling following her loss at All Out. She said she was sore, but she was inspired by Yuka Sakazaki’s upcoming title match at Grand Slam next week and would be paying attention. Deonna Purrazzo and Taya Valkyrie interrupted her, with Purrazzo saying if they were friends, Nightingale would have been there for Sakazaki on Dynamite when she was attacked by Mariah May. She also said that Nightingale should be in Sakazaki’s corner, and if she wasn’t, Purrazzo would offer Sakazaki protection, as she’s done the same with Valkyrie.
After Nightingale attempted to interrupt Purrazzo, Valkyrie interjected. Nightingale issued the challenge for Rampage, which was taped immediately following Saturday’s Collision in Springfield, Massachusetts.
This was the first appearance by Nightingale since losing a street fight to Kris Statlander at All Out. She also lost the CMLL Women’s Championship at last week’s 91st Anniversary show to Zeuxis.
