When Ruby Riott is introduced to All Elite Wrestling, she will be looking to make an immediate impact. This means that she has to be in the ring with established female talent. There aren't many women on the entire roster as credible as the former AEW Women's World Champion Hikaru Shida.

Shida was the longest reigning champion in the entire company, holding the AEW Women's World Championship for over one year. In that reign, she beat a who's who of challengers from Thunder Rosa to Nyla Rose to Big Swole to Abadon. She consistently gave the women's division a stable force and an anchor.

Although Shida hasn't been seen as much since losing her title, she only needs the right opponent to be right back in a viable role once again. Ruby Riott coming in and attacking the former champ could be what both women need. Riott would target Shida and look to take her position after her dominant run with the gold, while Shida could try to overcome a women's competitor with name recognition.

These two women are among the best women's wrestlers in the world. Ruby Riott could match Shida's hard-hitting style, unlike many other women can. She has shown a physical intensity that could match up well with Shida. The former champ is known for busting open Britt Baker's nose and could try to do the same with Ruby. This would be a banger in more ways than one.
