AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander is aiming to make history by capturing a second consecutive title, this time in the men’s division. After winning the AEW Women’s World Championship at All Out, where she dethroned Toni Storm in a four-way match featuring Jamie Hayter and Thecla, Statlander has set her sights higher. She made history as the first performer to hold both the Women’s World and TBS Championships in AEW and now hopes to become the first AEW Women’s Triple Crown Champion.
In an interview with Wrestfriends, Statlander expressed her ambition to hold multiple belts simultaneously, including the women’s tag titles, and pursue the TNT Championship as a wild card challenger. She teased a potential rivalry with Ricochet, who has hinted at going after her title, stating, “Ricochet, be careful.” Ricochet, the reigning AEW National Champion, has already shown interest in Statlander’s championship after his win at Full Gear in November.
Currently, the TNT Champion is Mark Brisco, who earned the belt by defeating Kyle Fletcher at AEW Full Gear. Statlander has hinted she might join a new faction or alliance in the future as part of her evolving career journey.
Fan Take: This development is exciting for AEW fans because it blurs traditional gender lines in wrestling, opening the door for more intergender competition and fresh storylines. Statlander’s pursuit of multiple titles could elevate the overall championship landscape in AEW, making for more unpredictable and thrilling matches.
