Starlight Kid coming for AEW Women’s title at Forbidden Door 2026

The AEW Women’s title will be on the line at Forbidden Door with champion Thekla defending her title against Stardom’s Starlight Kid.

Thekla, who worked for Stardom before coming to AEW, has been thrashing the promotion and its president for quite a while now and the champ yesterday issued the challenge to any of her former colleagues to come over and challenge for the title.

Later in the broadcast, a video of the 24-year-old Starlight Kid appeared, confirming the match.

Starlight Kid has never appeared on AEW television before, so this will be her AEW debut. She is a former multi-time champion in Stardom.
