AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla Attacks STARDOM President Taro Okada in Las Vegas

By Noah Leatherland

On top of an exciting card in the Pearl Theater, STARDOM AMERICAN DREAM saw some added chaos during the intermission. When STARDOM President Taro Okada stepped into the ring to address the fans in attendance, he was attacked by the AEW Women’s World Champion, ‘The Toxic Spider’ Thekla.

Attacking Okada is what got Thekla fired from STARDOM in the first place. Clearly, she still has a lot of ill will towards the STARDOM President, much to his despair.

While Thekla warned Okada not to step foot in the US, claiming it as her territory, that may prove difficult with Forbidden Door approaching on the calendar. STARDOM is set to take part in the event alongside AEW, NJPW and CMLL. Forbidden Door takes place on June 28th in San Jose, CA.

The event in Los Angeles saw plenty of other AEW involvement. Mina Shirakawa reunited with Maika and HANAKO in trios action. The ROH Women’s World Champion Athena picked up a singles victory over Rina. Saya Iida challenged Alex Windsor for the NJPW STRONG Women’s Title, but ultimately leaves Las Vegas empty handed. Then, in the main event, Neo Genesis toppled the trio of Kris Statlander, Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron.
