A top champion has left fans in a frenzy after her recent actions on AEW Dynamite. The star has now taken a massive shot at a Death Riders member.
That star is the reigning AEW Women's World Champion, Kris Statlander. The Galaxy's Greatest Alien has been on a high ever since winning the title from Toni Storm in a 4-way match that also included Thekla and Jamie Hayter at All Out. This week on Dynamite, Statlander successfully defended her title against Mina Shirakawa in the main event of the show. After the match, Stat was confronted by the Death Riders, a group that had been pursuing her for a while. The 30-year-old star decided not to join Jon Moxley's faction and left quickly through the crowd after taking out Wheeler Yuta and flipping off Moxley.
Shortly after the event, Statlander took to Instagram and referenced the incident by posting a photo of herself giving two middle fingers while in the crowd. This prompted a reply from Death Riders member Daniel Garcia, who responded by flipping her off in the comments. Statlander then replied to Garcia, asking him to wipe his tears with Yuta's hair.
"@garciawrestling go wipe your tears with Yuta’s hair," Statlander wrote.
