AEW Full Gear has already been hit with a last-minute change, and Maya World is officially out of her scheduled championship match. Just ahead of AEW Full Gear on November 14 2026, the company confirmed that World was unable to make it to Phoenix, forcing a major shakeup to the TBS Championship match.
AEW announced the change shortly before the event, confirming that World would no longer compete in the originally scheduled three-way match against Queen Aminata and Persephone.
Instead of canceling the match, AEW has added Hyan and Skye Blue to the lineup. Queen Aminata will now defend the TBS Championship against Persephone, Hyan and Skye Blue in a four-way match during the Full Gear Tailgate Brawl pre-show. Shortly after the news surfaced, she posted a single broken-heart emoji on Twitter, making it clear she wasn’t happy about missing the event.
The timing is especially frustrating considering World was medically cleared to return to the ring in October after being sidelined following a medical procedure in September. She had also been looking to regain the TBS Championship after being forced to vacate the title during her previous absence. As for Hyan and Skye Blue, they are getting another championship opportunity just days after Queen Aminata successfully defended the title against both women on the November 11 episode of AEW Dynamite and Collision.
What do you think about Maya World missing AEW Full Gear, and do you think Hyan or Skye Blue could take advantage of this last-minute opportunity? Let us know your thoughts and feedback in the comments below.
