Toni Storm will defend her AEW Women’s World Title against Hikaru Shida on next week’s show. The match was announced on Friday night’s «Rampage,» immediately after Shida defeated Nyla Rose.

In addition to the gold, a high-profile match at the biggest event in AEW’s history – All In London at Wembley Stadium – will likely be hanging in the balance when Storm and Shida lock up on Wednesday night. It would be a homecoming of sorts for Storm, who rose to international prominence in the United Kingdom, where she won the PROGRESS Women’s Championship in 2017 before signing on with WWE and becoming one of the centerpieces of the company’s «NXT UK» brand starting in 2018.
