Jamie Hayter Makes Surprise Return at AEW All In 2024

Sunday’s Zero Hour pre-show for AEW’s All In 2024 event at Wembley Stadium in London, England featured Jami Hayter making her surprise return from injury to AEW.

During the pre-show, Saraya, Harley Cameron, and the Knight family came out to the ring. Cameron yelled at the crowd stating that Saraya is pissed and the show can not go on. Saraya responded stating that she is the “Queen of England” and the crowd will show their respect to her. Saraya talked about how she won the AEW Women’s title at last year’s show and how she’s not even on the show this year. Saraya stated that she is the best wrestler to come out of England and this show will not go on until she gets the respect she deserves.

This led to Hayter’s music interrupting and made her surprise return to a massive ovation from the crowd. Hayter proceeded to lay out the entire Knight Family and Cameron on her way to the ring. Saraya attempted to attack Hayter only for Hayter to quickly counter and sent Saraya out of the ring.

This was Hayter’s first appearance in AEW since May of 2023 due to a shoulder-related injury.
