Skye Blue shares her thoughts on her victory on the premiere of AEW Collision.
Blue has become a breakout star throughout her time with AEW and Ring of Honor, and she continues to gain momentum. She had a remarkable night on June 17, as she competed on the premiere of AEW Collision, which was held at the United Center in her hometown of Chicago. Blue and NJPW STRONG Openweight Championship Willow Nightingale defeated AEW Women's World Champion Toni Storm and Willow Nightingale.
In a post on Instagram, Blue reflected on the special show and her victory in front of her hometown crowd.
The post is as follows:
If you would have told 17 year old trainee Skye that at the age of 23 she would pin Ruby Soho on the debut of AEW Collision in a SOLD OUT United Center, in my hometown of Chicago, AND my ass (quite literally) broke the internet….. I would have never believed you.
I still can’t wrap my head around all the feelings and emotions that went through me from the moments leading up to walking out onto that stage to me just typing this caption. I am so grateful for the opportunity to show the world who Skye Blue really is, and I can’t wait to keep making you all proud. I love pro wrestling so effin much, it’s my life, it’s all I know, and I can’t wait to wrestle til I’m 85 years old still trying to bump and wrestle to put smiles on everyone’s faces. Let’s fucking go.
