Willow Nightingale Loves The Idea Of Having A Blood And Guts Match Or Continental Classic For The Women In AEW

Willow Nightingale wants to see the women in AEW branch out more.

The women’s division in AEW has been growing stronger and stronger as of late. From the extra steps they have taken to show they are just as badass as the men are to signings like Deonna Purrazzo and Mercedes Mone showing up in All Elite Wrestling.

During a conversation with Lyric Swinton on Maps & Graps for Bodyslam.net. Willow Nightingale was asked which milestones she is looking forward to see the women’s division part of in the near future.

“There’s a lot of things that come to mind. A Blood & Guts is definitely on there. I do love the idea of having our own Continental Classic, but kind of branching off of that, I’m not sure how many other women on our roster, aside from myself, have had the opportunity to wrestle internationally and represent AEW. I know Toni Storm has done a few things with New Japan, in terms of being with Juice over there. But from a wrestling perspective, I may have been the only so far representing AEW [while] wrestling in Japan. This coming week, I’m also gonna be representing AEW over at CMLL, so I’m really grateful for these opportunities. I’m excited about them, and I hope I continue to do so in the future, but I know we’ve had STARDOM come over recently. I think when there are moments where maybe someone on the roster isn’t on TV every single week or they’re not directly tied into a storyline, it would be really cool to see some girls go over to STARDOM for a few weeks, get to train there. Even if you’re not training there, just doing the matches and working with all these other international wrestlers, you think about wrestling a different way. You adapt to a different audience, and you kind of understand more about yourself because the way I think when I go and I do all these different things is like, how do I make this audience believe that I have a value outside of what is already going on here. How do I also blend in to what’s going on without disrupting the flow too much, but how do I also give them the personal Willow Nightingale experience? How do I show them me? I think you learn a lot about yourself doing that, and there’s so many girls on the roster who could do the same, so more sending our girls over to other places and learning more about themselves would be very cool. Tag team championships would also be really awesome to have [laughs],” Nightingale said.

Nightingale defeated Skye Blue, Anna Jay, and Kris Statlander to earn a shot at Julia Hart’s TBS Championship on the March 27 edition of AEW Dynamite.
