Report: Riho Signs Five-Show Deal With All Elite Wrestling
Another star has been added to AEW’s women’s division but on a per-show basis.
All Elite Wrestling is two weeks away from their debut show under the company banner entitled ‘Double Or Nothing’ on May 25th in Las Vegas. With that show, there are several more shows following that on the lead up to AEW beginning their weekly television series this October. AEW has over thirty wrestlers signed and according to Dave Meltzer in his latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, former Triangle Ribbon Champion Riho is set to be a part of AEW as well as she has signed a five-show deal with the company.
It is also noted in the Observer that Riho wants to see how she adjusts to working in the United States before agreeing to a long-term deal with All Elite Wrestling. Riho is 21 years old and began her in-ring career in 2006 and is currently a part of ‘Gatoh Move Pro Wrestling’ which is a promotion based in Thailand that was founded by former Pro-Wrestling EVE Champion Emi Sakura.
