Rebel had previously been co-workers with Kim, Kay, Belle, Hemme, Kross and Bordeaux during her two stints with TNA\/Impact Wrestling during the 2010s, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlinginc.com\/2217596\/aew-britt-baker-rebel-tanea-als-ice-bucket-challenge-video-support-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Kim assisted Britt Baker in performing the Ice Bucket Challenge in honor of Rebel earlier this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/RebelHeart?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">#RebelHeart<\/a> \ud83d\udda4\u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n<p>Thank you <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AEW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@AEW<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TonyKhan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@TonyKhan<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/iamalsorg?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@iamalsorg<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oUUKek2ml3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/t.co\/oUUKek2ml3<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8aizZ6zLPi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/8aizZ6zLPi<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Allysin Kay (@TheAllysinKay) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TheAllysinKay\/status\/2097880292971118912?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">September 10, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Those who attended probably got more than they bargained for, as Rebel not only made an appearance during Baker&#8217;s &#8220;Waiting Room&#8221; segment, but made an appearance late in the trios match that saw Baker, Hikaru Shida, and AEW TBS Champion Persephone take on Maya World, Hyan, and Thunder Rosa. Rebel would hand Baker her trademark glove, which she used to submit Hyan as a tearful Rebel and Shida watched on. Baker and Rebel would celebrate the win by riding off to the back in Rebel&#8217;s motorized scooter, in a moment that many considered one of the most emotional moments in wrestling in recent memory.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n    &#13;<\/p>\n<p>        <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; AEW\/Speedy Ruiz Even the most stoic of souls&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":766523,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[96,59,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-766522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/766522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=766522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/766522\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/766523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=766522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=766522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=766522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
