Tonight’s AEW Dynamite live from the LJVM Coliseum in Winston-Salem, North Carolina at 8 PM ET on TBS.
Mercedes Mone brought in an enforcer in Kamille to stack the odds against Britt Baker during “AEW Dynamite.” The former NWA Women’s World Champion of 812 days was reportedly signed by AEW earlier this year after becoming a free agent and holding talks with both Tony Khan and WWE. And after months of waiting and speculation, she finally debuted during Wednesday’s show as Mone sought to eliminate her would-be challenger.
Before Kamille emerged, Baker had to endure a challenge from a fellow former Women’s World Champion in Hikaru Shida, dispatching her opponent by submission after 10 minutes of action. She hadn’t much time to celebrate as Mone’s music played and she emerged to tease a TBS Championship bout between the pair. Per the theme of the feud thus far, however, she said that wouldn’t happen and Baker was set upon by AEW’s latest debutant.
Britt Baker returned for the first time since September 2023 at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door in June, confronting Mercedes Mone moments after she’d dethroned Stephanie Vaquer to become NJPW Strong Women’s Champion on top of retaining her TBS title.
Kamille’s arrival in AEW had been long in the making, as it had been heavily reported she had signed with the company earlier this year, but no word was mentioned on when she would show up. According to Fightful Select, her appearance on “Dynamite” was kept very quiet in order to maintain the element of surprise, but it was no secret that she had signed with the company. She was reportedly backstage at AEW events as early as January 2024, which ultimately led to contract talks and her eventual signing with the promotion, with graphics and materials being in place for sometime. There were rumors she was set to join WWE as part of the “WWE NXT” roster earlier this year, but those talks never fully progressed.
While newer fans to AEW will see her appearance as a debut, Kamille appeared in AEW in the past when the company had a brief working relationship with the NWA. She appeared on an episode of “Dynamite” in 2021 to confront “Legit” Leyla Hirsch ahead of their NWA World Women’s Championship match at that year’s EmPowerrr pay-per-view, where Kamille retained her title over the Russian star. Despite making an appearance for the company many years ago, she has yet to wrestle a match for AEW, but now that she is aligned with “The CEO,” expect to see more of Kamille on AEW TV going forward.
