Andrade El Idolo’s latest ringside selfie didn’t just go wrong—it introduced another mystery. Marina Shafir choked out the woman Andrade stopped to take a photo with at AEW All Out, and fans immediately started asking the same question they always do: Who was she?
It didn’t take long for the answer to come out. Following the pay-per-view, the woman was revealed to be independent wrestler Davina Thorne, making her the latest name to secretly take part in Andrade’s now-famous ringside selfie gimmick. Thorne has wrestled for promotions including GCW, PWF, 2econd Priests & Prophets, GFW and ZOWA, adding another indie name to a list that’s been quietly growing over the past several months.
The moment itself came during Andrade’s AEW National Championship match against PAC. As Andrade made his usual trip to ringside for a selfie, Marina Shafir suddenly appeared behind Thorne and choked her out, leaving Andrade stunned and giving PAC another opening to take control of the match.
By this point, the selfie spot has become a game within the show. Fans no longer just react to Andrade stopping for a picture—they immediately start trying to figure out which independent wrestler is sitting in the front row. Melissa Fierce, Amaris Blair, Corrine Joy and Sofia Sivan have all been revealed after previous appearances, and now Davina Thorne has officially joined that list.
The selfie may have ended with Marina Shafir putting her to sleep, but it also gave Thorne one of the biggest appearances of her career. At this rate, Andrade’s next selfie might end with fans spending as much time guessing the mystery guest as they do watching the match itself.
