During the Casino Battle Royale at All Out, Ruby Soho, formerly known as Ruby Riott in WWE, made her All Elite Wrestling debut. She would come in as number 21, the Joker, and would go on to win by last eliminating Thunder Rosa. She will now get to challenge Dr. Britt Baker, DMD in the future, who retained the AEW Women’s Championship earlier in the evening.
Ruby is now going by the surname Soho instead of Riott due to WWE owning the trademark on that version of the name. She actually selected Ruby from the song “Ruby Soho” by punk rock band Rancid when selecting her WWE name, and since departing the company, Lars Frederiksen of the band has allowed her to also utilize the surname. It isn’t yet confirmed whether she has signed a full-time contract with AEW, but it is strongly believed she has.
Ruby started wrestling on the indies in 2010 as Miss Heidi and began making a name for herself in OVW and Shine Wrestling in 2012 when she became Heidi Lovelace. She’d sign with WWE in December 2016, aged just 25, and was fast-tracked to NXT, debuting on the March 22, 2017, episode. Later that year, she was called up to the main roster alongside Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan as the Riott Squad. With Logan also have been released by WWE, this now leaves Morgan as the only remaining member working with the promotion.
