AEW RESULTS, APR. 08, 2020: BLOODY FIGHT FOR THE #1 CONTENDERSHIP






The #1 Contender's match turned a bit bloody. The stake is a title match against the Native Beast and both competitors really torn each other out. 

HIKARU SHIDA defeated DR. BRITT BAKER,
IN A #1 CONTENDER'S MATCH



We have a continuation from the last week after these two barged through Shida's match, while the Dr. was in the audience. "Get out my face" or "Don't enter my space" weren't an option this time. 

It was really physical and what I called pure wrestling. Both Shida and Baker worked really well together. Both of them are equally good title's challengers. Shida was literally taking over Baker's space and face... to the extent that Britt ended with a bleeding nose at one point.

Everything was in the blood! Blood everywhere... all over Baker! And no black and white filter to soften it... Raw footages.  And Britt laughing psychotically!!! Really chilling and dramatic. 

I thought that this is brutal when Hikaru Shida proved me wrong... She and Baker were in a top rope position when Shida dragged her opponent on her shoulders and I thought that we might see Samoan drop which might be damaging, but NOOO-a! The Japanese star dropped Dr. Baker on the top turnbuckle, back first... then she brought more damage to the wound with a running knee to BRITT'S BLOODY NOSE!

It was painful to watch, guys!!! 😮 😨

1-2-3 and Shida is the #1 Contender... Baker can only hope that the Champ Nyla Rose might avenge her unofficially!

Overall:

I think that this was a good storyline and they don't need to drop it. I can include a drop of a 'booking strategy' in here and suggest Dr. Baker interfere in the title match against Shida and then to develop a Triple Threat for the belt.

I like Britt's stand. She had some stiff little moments when she throws several kicks, but overall she was really good.

Hikaru Shida, on the other hand, looks like someone who might put Rose her limits and after a winning streak behind her back to feed the Beast, eventually!

Can't wait to see that!
