Thekla still doesn’t have anything announced for AEW All In, and with the show getting closer, questions are starting to pile up about whether AEW actually has something waiting for her.
During a Fightful Select Q&A, Sean Ross Sapp was asked directly if Thekla is planned to have a match at All In. Sapp said every time he’s checked on her status, he’s been told she is penciled in for the show — but nobody has given him the details.
“Every time I’ve asked, I’m told that she was penciled in for All In, but I’ve never been given context as to what it is she’s actually doing.”
That’s where things get interesting. Thekla has been one of AEW’s hotter names on television this year, yet there’s still nothing official for her on one of the company’s biggest shows. Sapp made it clear he thinks AEW needs to find something worthwhile for her rather than letting all that momentum go nowhere.
“She got red hot on TV this year, and they need something valuable for her to do.”
Thekla’s recent title loss also came up, with Sapp pointing out that AEW had plans involving Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Moné in place for quite some time. From his perspective, getting the belt off Thekla felt like AEW was forcing the pieces into place for those plans.
“I know they had plans involving Willow and Mercedes for quite some time, but it definitely seemed forced to have Thekla lose the title.”
So the word behind the scenes is that Thekla has been in the All In plans, but exactly what AEW intends to do with her is still being kept quiet. With no match announced yet, fans may have to wait a little longer to find out where she fits into the show.
