Willow Nightingale is back on AEW TV, making her return on AEW Dynamite and winning a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship. Wednesday night’s episode featured a women’s Casino Gauntlet Match to determine the person who will face Thekla for the title at AEW Redemption.

The match featured Athena, Maya World, Skye Blue, Mina Shirakawa, Rina, Julia Hart, and Thunder Rosa before Nightingale came in as the final entrant. Nightingale ultimately picked up the victory 18 and a half minutes into the match, pinning Hart for the victory.

You can see clips from the AEW Dynamite match below. Nightingale has been out of action since late May when she suffered an injury that forced her to vacate the AEW TBS Championship and withdraw from the women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.

Nightingale will now challenge Thekla for the title at AEW Redemption, which takes place on July 26th at Center Bell in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
