On Saturday’s AEW Collision premiere, Skye Blue teamed with the NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Willow Nightingale to defeat Toni Storm and Ruby Soho of the Outcasts.
In a post on Instagram today, Skye Blue reflected on wrestling in her hometown:
“**WARNING THIS IS GOING TO BE SAPPY AF**
If you would have told 17 year old trainee Skye that at the age of 23 she would pin Ruby Soho on the debut of AEW Collision in a SOLD OUT United Center, in my hometown of Chicago, AND my ass (quite literally) broke the internet….. I would have never believed you.
I still can’t wrap my head around all the feelings and emotions that went through me from the moments leading up to walking out onto that stage to me just typing this caption. I am so grateful for the opportunity to show the world who Skye Blue really is, and I can’t wait to keep making you all proud. I love pro wrestling so effin much, it’s my life, it’s all I know, and I can’t wait to wrestle til I’m 85 years old still trying to bump and wrestle to put smiles on everyone’s faces. Let’s f**king go.”
