Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D has earned her way into the finals for the women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.
Tonight’s AEW “Dynamite” featured a semifinal match in the women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament when Britt Baker and Toni Storm went one-on-one. The match seemed to be basically split down the middle throughout, with each woman trading strikes, technical moves, and submission holds. Near the end of the match, Storm’s nose was accidentally busted open and was tinged with blood throughout the conclusion.
Jamie Hayter came down to the ring and it was unclear if she was still 100% on Baker’s side or had mapped out a new plan. The ending saw Storm and Baker trade more reversals until Baker rolled up Storm, and as the ref was looking down at her shoulders, the D.M.D grabbed the ropes and cheated to get the 3. It looked as though Hayter was running to ringside to help give her even more leverage on the pin, but she instead just cheered Baker on.
Baker’s opponent will be either Ruby Soho or Kris Statlander, whoever wins this Friday on “Rampage” in the last semifinal match.
As for the men’s side, Adam Cole and Samoa Joe are set to collide one-on-one at AEW “Double or Nothing”.
Tonight’s main event saw the last semifinal match between Joe and Kyle O’Reilly with the winner knowing that a match against Cole awaits them at the pay-per-view.
The final moments of the bout saw O’Reilly lock Samoa Joe in the Fujiwara armbar, but Joe finally made it to the ropes after a prolonged struggle. Both men hit their stiffest strikes and reversed one another until Joe slipped O’Reilly in his coquina clutch and got the knockout victory.
