Nyla Rose defeats Big Swole

AEW Dynamite January 29

Swole evaded the first couple of moves from Rose and then a basement dropkick to take Rose off her feat. Rose cut off Swole’s advantage with a clothesline, but Swole hit a dropkick to send Rose to the outside. On the outside, Rose tossed Swole into the barricade and the apron. Mounting a short comeback, Swole went for a forearm shot but hit the post sending AEW to a commercial break.

Back in the ring, Swole hit a bicycle kick to take Rose down and a headbutt moments later. After a cutter, Swole got a two count.  When Swole attempted dirty dancing, Rose hit the sit-down powebomb for the pinfall victory. The match was sloppy in spots and the crowd died for this match.
