When Zayda Steel surprisingly announced she would not be renewing her WWE ID contract and was departing the program back in October, it was believed she did so with another move in mind. Those suspicions were seemingly confirmed shortly thereafter, when reports emerged that AEW had interest in signing Steel, and the two sides had even engaged in contract discussions, though a deal couldn’t be confirmed.📺 https://t.co/s0Hf8H2Uya pic.twitter.com/iMiYmY49qJ

No date was announced for Steel’s ROH debut, but there are two shows in the near distant future that serve as likely candidates. The first would be ROH’s usual “HonorClub” taping this Thursday, which is already set to have two ROH Women’s Pure Championship semi-final matches on the card, with Queen Aminata facing Deonna Purrazzo and Billie Starkz battling Yuka Sakazaki.

The other event would be Final Battle, ROH’s end of the year tentpole event, which will be taking place this Friday from Columbus, Ohio. A Steel-Grey match on either the main card or Zero Hour would serve as the fourth women’s match on Final Battle, joining the Women’s Pure Championship Finals, Mercedes Mone defending the ROH Women’s TV Championship against Red Velvet, and Athena defending the ROH Women’s Championship against CMLL’s Persephone.
