Here's the match video of Hikaru Shida and Toni Storm vs Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker from last night's AEW show in Toronto. The setup for this was Hikaru looking to get revenge for a backstage attack a couple of weeks ago. Except the whole thing was phony as Hikaru was in Japan appearing in a Makai show. And for those wondering, it's in her contract that she can do that. The match was OK. The fans are chanting Jamie's name. So that makes me wonder when she will turn on Britt. Or vice versa. The match breaks down at the finish. As is typical of AEW, the ref loses control. I also hated the reversing rollup finish. They want to protect Britt so they have her lose in a halfassed way. Next week Toni will defend her interim title against Hikaru. Tony Khan likes to do dumb stuff like that. Have babyfaces team up and then have them wrestle each other. Ugh! Speaking of dumb, there is no place for interim titles in pro wrestling. Like rankings, Khan thinks stuff like that makes the product more realistic. He's wrong. It just confuses fans. Enjoy the video!
