AEW Owen Hart Tournament was in progress on this week’s AEW Dynamite which determined the fourth semifinalist from the women’s division. The Outcasts members Ruby Soho is that name to be the last woman to secure her spot in the semifinals of the tournament after beating Britt Baker on the latest episode of Dynamite.
With this victory, Soho was able to avenge the loss to Baker from the AEW Owen Hart Tournament’s 2022 edition. That loss was quite traumatic since it came in the final of the tourney which allowed Baker to become the first-ever Owen Hart Cup holder. That match took place at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view, last year.
This win at the AEW Owen Hart Tournament 2023 also marked Soho’s first singles victory over Baker on TV. Apart from the above-mentioned win at Double or Nothing in 2022, Baker also defeated Soho for the AEW Women’s World Championship at the first-ever AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam edition in September 2021.

On her way to the finale match, Soho would have to defeat Skye Blue in the next round. Their last encounter was a tag team match on the debut episode of AEW Collision, three weeks ago where Blue scored the deciding pinfall against Soho. The winner between Soho and Blue will go on to face the winner of a match between Willow Nightingale and Ring of Honor Women’s World Champion Athena in the finale of the AEW Owen Hart Tournament 2023.
