The Brawling Birds Survive the Street Fight as Thekla Earns Her Shot at Moné

Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor retained the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship in a brutal Chicago Street Fight against Megan Bayne and Lena Kross. The fight began on the stage and quickly escalated, with Bayne throwing a steel chair into Windsor’s face and drawing blood before Divine Dominion put Hayter through a table at ringside and whipped Windsor with a kendo stick. Hayter answered by DDTing Bayne onto a barbed-wire steel chair, leaving Bayne bloodied as well, and the Brawling Birds later suplexed Kross onto a piece of steel barricade.

Divine Dominion came close to reclaiming the titles when Bayne and Kross hit Divine Intervention on Windsor onto two steel chairs, but Hayter broke up the pin. She later sent Bayne through a barbed-wire board. After Kross drove Windsor face-first into a chair in the corner and pulled out a bag of thumbtacks, Hayter smashed a beer bottle over Kross and the champions hit Two Birds, One Stone onto them for the victory. The Birds had taken the belts from Divine Dominion at All In on Aug. 30, and Saturday’s fight followed Wednesday’s ambush during their fake tea-and-crumpets gathering.
