Julia Hart Makes Surprise Return at AEW Collision Winter Is Coming 2024 Show
Saturday’s taped AEW Collision Winter Is Coming 2024 show also featured Julia Hart making her official in-person return from injury to AEW.
Hart’s return had been teased in recent weeks shows following several vignettes being aired and Hart revealing that she was targeting Hayter for her return victim.
Following Willow Nightingale’s victory over Jamie Hayter in the Finals of AEW’s Qualifiers tournament for the International Women’s Cup match at Wrestle Dynasty, Nightingale left the ring leaving Hayter by herself. This led to the lights turning off and when it came back on, Hart was seen in the ring and attacked and laid out Hayter.

The first new match announced was an AEW Women’s World Championship match of Thunder Rosa vs. “The Glamour” Mariah May (c).
This match was initially setup in recent weeks shows over Rosa’s issues with May as the AEW Women’s World Champion. During tonight’s show, a video aired featuring May talking about her victory over Mina Shirakawa and Rosa’s recent issues with her. May told Rosa to name the date and place and she’d put her title on the line. In a follow-up segment, Rosa was interviewed backstage by Tony Schiavone and talked about the last time she won the Women’s title in AEW. Rosa then stated that she wants to face May for her title at Worlds End 2024. Following the segment, this match was made official for the show.
#AEW Women's World Champ @MariahMayx asked @thunderrosa22 to name the TIME and PLACE, and she knows the EXACT time that changed her life before, and the EXACT place she wants it to happen again!

During tonight’s show, Callis was seen backstage and talked about how he had a bad night after his group’s loss to Hobbs and Mark Davis on Rampage. Callis stated that he has good news and will be happy at Worlds End when he will get his revenge when Takeshita will take out Hobbs in a title match.
