Maki Itoh made her AEW Pay-per-view debut last night at AEW Revolution. She replaced an injured Reba to team with Dr. Britt Baker to take on Thunder Rosa and Riho on the Revolution Buy-In. Itoh received a huge pop from fans in attendance despite being on the heel team.
Dr. Britt Baker and Maki Itoh got the victory for their team, and her alliance with Baker means she is now heel. Itoh appeared on the show again after the Women’s Championship match between Mizunami and Hikaru Shida. Both Itoh and Baker, alongside Nyla Rose, attacked the champion and challenger before Thunder Rosa came out to make the same.
