Willow Nightingale came up with a unique move against Toni Storm and Kris Statlander during the Women's Casino Gauntlet match on AEW Dynamite. Fans gave different names to the manoeuvre with mixed opinions. Later this week on AEW Collision, Mariah May will be taking on Harley Cameron in a non-title match without any stakes.
In the Women's Casino Gauntlet match, Willow had a slight advantage over her opponents at one stage. Both her and Kris Statlander held on to Toni's upper half and lower half of the body. While Toni managed to hold on to Statlander's legs, Willow had total control over the former world champion's legs. She later pulled off her manoeuvre.

As Statlander was watching from towards the other end of the ring, Willow pushed Toni's head towards Kris which resulted in former getting hurt on her cr**ch area. As the fans cheered the move of Nightingale, the mighty wrestler acknowledged it. Neither Kris nor Toni Storm enjoyed it as they were in deep pain.
Mariah May to take on Harley Cameron on AEW Collision
The segment went viral on social media with a mixed opinion from the fans. While some liked the segment and gave different names for it like 'Clam Slam', 'The Platypus', 'The Arys', and so on, many didn't like the move. Some asked for the move to be never used again.
Backstage on Dynamite, Marian was happy to see her title getting the attention of the locker room. As the Casino Gauntlet match was taking place, May hoped to get a worthy opponent who would go down to her. Her enjoyment was cut short by Harley Cameron who had a proposal for the world champion.
Harley asked May for a match. Mariah confirmed that she would not get a shot at her world title. Cameron did not want it either and aimed it was a one-on-one non-title match with nothing at stake. May agreed to it and Cameron hoped to deliver a girls' grapes. The duo will be faking each other on AEW Collision.
