Red Velvet ‘Wants To Wrestle Everyone’ Following Her AEW Return
Red Velvet doesn’t have her eye on any particular opponent for her return to an AEW ring.
Red Velvet wants to fight everyone.
Velvet has been out with an injury since her unsuccessful TBS title challenge back in February, when she faced off with former fellow Baddie, Jade Cargill.
Prior to this injury, Velvet was active in AEW and had faced off against some of the top talent in the promotion including the likes of Britt Baker, Kris Statlander, Willow Nightingale, Skye Blue, Jamie Hayter and more.
As of late, Velvet had begun teasing an upcoming return to the ring for AEW, and is scheduled to face off with Julia Hart during the November 8th edition of AEW Dynamite.
While speaking to Women’s Wrestling Talk, she was asked who she would like to face following her return.
“That’s a tough one because I haven’t been on AEW television for a while, and it’s just given me a lot of time to reflect. I think, not if, when I come back, I just have a different mindset, and I’m a different person, and I’m a different wrestler, so I wouldn’t want to single anyone out. I want to wrestle everyone. I just feel like I’m in a different mindset, I’m a different person, I’m a different athlete now, so even having wrestled the women I’ve already wrestled, I just feel like they’re about to get the new me, and I don’t think anybody’s ready. But I have on a lot of people. I have my eyes on people that are [in] AEW, I have my eyes on people that are outside of AEW. I know that when I get back, it’s my year. I’m coming for everything everyone said I couldn’t have it didn’t have or didn’t deserve, I’m coming for all of it. So I don’t think people are ready. But I’m trying to be the best of the best. I want to elevate talent, I want to help the generations that are coming and leave my staple in the world of wrestling, and I don’t just mean, ‘Hey, I want to come and be a champion.’ No, I want to help bring up girls. I want to help train other girls because there’s gonna be a day where I’m not gonna do it anymore, and I want to know that the wrestling world is being left behind great, amazing, female wrestlers, and we’re not going backwards. I’m just ready.” Red Velvet said.
Elsewhere in the same interview, Red Velvet noted that she “stays ready” ahead of her return. You can read more here.
