Anna Jay says she was “scared to death” prior to her match with Syuri at Thursday’s STARDOM 5STAR Grand Prix 2024 night four show.
During a post-show press conference, the AEW wrestler said, “I think I had the most anxiety leading up to this match. You know, I had the first one out of the way, first win, second match Starlight kid, I lost, but I still felt good. Then this one, I was scared to death, to be honest.”
She continued, “But I did it. And I’m proving that I deserve it. deserve to be here and deserve to keep working at this. Syuri is amazing and I hope I get to wrestle her again, even though my arm probably will be hurting for days. So, I’m loving it here. I’m tired, I’m sore, but I want to keep going. Thank you.”
Jay is currently 1-3 in the Grand Prix, having defeated Saori Anou and losing to Syuri and Starlight Kid.

AEW commentator Tony Schiavone says he was thrilled to see Bron Breakker defeat Sami Zayn to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
During the latest episode of his “What Happened When” podcast, Schiavone lavished praise on Breakker. He said,
“I’m really excited for him. I met him when we worked State Farm Arena, or back at that time I think it was Philips Arena, in Atlanta … Rick’s son was backstage and we talked to him, and I got to know him back then.”
He continued, “Rick and Scott are two of my favorite people of all time, probably because they have so many — we have so many great stories of them pulling pranks on people. I’m excited for the family, I’m excited for the kid. I’ve never seen him wrestle, but I’m sure that being … putting the IC strap on him means they have a lot of confidence in him as far as his character, and his work are concerned.”
