Skye Blue shares her thoughts on her high-profile homecoming.
Blue competed on premiere of AEW Collision, as she and Willow Nightingale joined forces to defeat Ruby Soho and Toni Storm of The Outcasts. The match was extra special for Blue, as Saturday’s episode of AEW Collision emanated from the United Center in her hometown of Chicago.
Blue reflected on her victory in a post on Instagram, and she expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to show the world who she is. The AEW star wrote that she loves wrestling, and she is excited to wrestle until she’s 85 years old, as she wants to keep making people smile.
Blue’s message is as follows:
“If you would have told 17 year old trainee Skye that at the age of 23 she would pin Ruby Soho on the debut of AEW Collision in a SOLD OUT United Center, in my hometown of Chicago, AND my ass (quite literally) broke the internet….. I would have never believed you.
“I still can’t wrap my head around all the feelings and emotions that went through me from the moments leading up to walking out onto that stage to me just typing this caption. I am so grateful for the opportunity to show the world who Skye Blue really is, and I can’t wait to keep making you all proud. I love pro wrestling so effin much, it’s my life, it’s all I know, and I can’t wait to wrestle til I’m 85 years old still trying to bump and wrestle to put smiles on everyone’s faces. Let’s f–king go.”
