Former AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla has officially made the trip to London ahead of AEW All In. While her exact role for Sunday’s pay-per-view remains unconfirmed, her arrival in the UK opens the door for a potential high-profile return on AEW’s biggest stage of the year.
Thekla has been absent from AEW television since losing the AEW Women’s World Championship to Willow Nightingale at the Redemption pay-per-view on July 26. In that contest, Skye Blue attempted to interfere on the champion’s behalf, but Nightingale survived the chaos and pinned her with a roll-up to capture the title. Thekla has not competed on AEW programming in the weeks following the loss.
Tony Khan Teases Television Return
Speculation surrounding her status intensified following the official media call for the event, where AEW President Tony Khan directly addressed her absence. Khan praised her work as champion and teased that fans should expect to see her back on screen very soon.
During the call, Khan highlighted her standing within the women’s division:
- “I think Thekla is a tremendous, tremendous wrestler, and I think it’s certainly a great opportunity for everybody in AEW anytime they can participate in AEW All In. I still think we could see Thekla appear very soon in AEW.”
- “She’s somebody who can come in and be a huge part of our shows anytime, on pay-per-view or TV, and is very unpredictable as well. I would say stay tuned.”
Potential Implications For Sunday’s Pay-Per-View
While Khan confirmed an eight-match main card for the show, he emphasized that the broadcast leaves ample room for unannounced segments and surprise appearances.
With current champion Willow Nightingale set to defend the AEW Women’s World Championship against Mercedes Moné on the card, Thekla’s presence in town presents several intriguing booking possibilities. Whether she intervenes in the women’s title match, targets former ally Skye Blue, or initiates a post-match confrontation, her arrival adds an unpredictable element to the upcoming broadcast.
