Ruby Soho was part of a previous batch of releases from WWE, back in June. Many fans considered her an underappreciated and underutilized talent and believed it was the best thing for her career. It seems she has a high opinion about AEW as well.
Since her release, many fans had wondered where Ruby Soho would end up. That was answered after Ruby Soho made her debut at AEW All Out, much to the delight of fans all around the world.
While speaking on AEW Unrestricted, Ruby Soho talked about the backstage atmosphere in AEW, now that she has been with the company for a couple of months. Soho stated that AEW is the place independent wrestlers dream of.
“In the back, on the independents, we weren’t trying to come after each other’s spot. We were just trying to put on the best show possible, and that’s how I feel AEW is. We’re a team just trying to put on the best show possible. Nobody is trying to come after anybody’s spot. We’re just trying to put on this product that we’re all very, very proud of. It definitely has that indie wrestling feel which is one that I love so much where we are trying to prove ourselves, but with the arena and the national TV exposure environment.
I love it. It’s beautiful. It’s what we all dream of as independent wrestlers. This place is like, if we had to dream of a perfect place where one day we can all go to this company. We’re going to be on national television, but we’re going to have a say where we can be ourselves. Our boss is going to be super cool, and we’re going to have a lot of fun. We can wrestle our friends. We can put on amazing matches. Like, wouldn’t that be cool, and it became a reality.”
Ruby Soho also previously stated that AEW is a critical part of the Women’s Revolution in pro wrestling. Soho is currently set to square off against Kris Statlander in order to advance to the next round of the TBS Women’s Championship tournament. We will have to wait and see how she will fare in the tournament.
