AEW star Skye Blue announced for major intergender match

AEW star Skye Blue has been announced for a major intergender match. This comes after Blue hasn't been a regular feature on Dynamite in recent weeks.

Ever since turning heel and aligning herself with Julia Hart, Skye Blue has been a regular feature on AEW TV. She along with Julia has terrorized the women's division in the company. Unfortunately, the House of Black member suffered an injury in her TBS Title match against Willow Nightingale a couple of months ago and hasn't been seen on TV since then. As a result of Hart's absence, Skye hasn't been featured as prominently as before and is lingering in the women's division. Despite this, Blue is set for a major match.

Skye Blue's cousin, Jordan Kross, recently took to social media to announce that he will be wrestling the AEW star in a singles intergender match at 2econd Wrestling's Blackout on July 28th.

"July 28th, @2econdwrestling presents: BLACKOUT at @homebarchicago in Arlington Heights, Illinois..FIRST TIME EVER @skyeblue_wrestling bs @thejordankross. Limited tickets remain!. Powered by: @cutlernutrition , code: KROSS to save, link in bio!"

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

Skye reacted to the post on her Instagram story and stated that she would beat her cousin.

SSkye Blue issued a statement after a horrific incident

Wrestling in front of 1000s of fans is no easy feat as wrestling fans can be loud and boisterous and Skye Blue found that out first hand.

During one of her matches against Lady Frost a couple of months ago, a fan in the front row started hurling vulgar comments at Blue. The incident got so bad that security had to step in and handle the situation. Following this incident, the 24-year-old took to social media to issue a statement.

"I’m beyond overwhelmed with all the love and support. Thank you everyone you have no idea how much it’s appreciated 💙Let’s make sure the future generations of women wrestlers don’t have to deal with this sh*t."

It will be interesting to see whether Blue will continue teaming up with Julia Hart after she returns from injury.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
