More on Jamie Hayters return to AEW
Added 2024-08-25 22:45:48 +0000 UTCJamie Hayter is back in AEW at long last, and it was a winding road.
Hayter was battling injuries in May of 2023, and required special clearance to even make it to Double or Nothing where she was able to drop the AEW World Women’s Title to Toni Storm. By the summer, it had been clear to All Elite Wrestling that they wouldn’t have her back in 2023.
Hayter returned at AEW All In, and we’ve learned more about the process to bring her back. Over the last few months, an in-ring return became more of a possibility, and tentative plan to have her return at AEW All In was put in place. Sources close to Hayter claim that she was actually at an AEW taping recently to meet with Tony Khan, but it was kept close to the vest. In addition, we’re told that while there was a general idea of what she’d be doing at the show, it wasn’t finalized until this week.
Hayter is cleared for in ring action, and at one point a short squash match was considered.

2024-08-25 22:52:09 +0000 UTCI still think she would have worked better helping out Britt, but I think they want to have her separate to Britt now, and they'll step it up on Dynamite going forward.
