Former WWE Superstar Vanessa Borne made her AEW debut against Marina Shafir during the Dark tapings.
For those who are unfamiliar, Vanessa Borne worked in WWE from 2016 to 2021, where she primarily wrestled on the NXT brand and was closely aligned with Aliyah.
The real-life Danelle Kamela was released from WWE sometime in 2021 and was seemingly absent from professional wrestling.
In a couple of images released on Twitter, Vanessa Borne was seen competing in a match with Marina Shafir during a Dark taping. According to reports, the tapings took place at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.
[SPOILER]
It should be noted that Borne lost her debut match.
It's unclear whether this was a one-off deal or a tryout for the future. Going by previous stars appearing on Dark, this could lead to an eventual signing with the company.
Who is the mystery opponent for Isiash Kassidy on AEW Dynamite this week?
Speaking of future signings, Tony Khan recently announced that Isiah Kassidy would compete for a spot in the 'Face of the Revolution' ladder match against a mystery opponent this week on Dynamite.
Khan also claims that this person will sign the contract with AEW and should they wish to 'shut the forbidden door' on their prior employer's face.
From what it looks, Tony Khan is hinting that the wrestler to appear on Dynamite this week is a 'big' name.
There are some apparent candidates for this new signing. Two names that come to mind are Karrion Kross, a.k.a. Killer Kross, and Keith Lee.
Both men were released in November and would have served their 90-day non-compete clause.
Who do you think will appear on Dynamite next week?
