At Forbidden Door 2025, Jamie Hayter made a much-anticipated return to AEW after nearly three months away, igniting excitement among fans with her comeback. The former AEW Women’s World Champion appeared as Thekla and the Triangle of Madness were assaulting Queen Aminata, intensifying an ongoing rivalry showcased across the event, from the pre-show to the main card.
Injury Details and Delayed Comeback
Hayter’s absence was due to an injury sustained during her May match against Mercedes Moné at Double or Nothing, though the exact nature of the injury has not been disclosed. Shortly after that event, she briefly appeared on AEW Dynamite to discuss her future but was interrupted by Thekla’s surprise debut. Although Hayter claimed she was recovering well at the time, reports have since revealed she had not been medically cleared to compete, which delayed any continuation of the storyline involving her and Thekla.
New Alliances and Potential Feud Developments
Now aligned with the babyface wrestlers opposing the Triangle of Madness, Jamie Hayter’s return sets up a fresh chapter in her AEW career. Her renewed conflict with Thekla, the former Stardom star fast-tracked as a key competitor during Hayter’s recovery, appears likely to develop into a direct confrontation. The unfolding narrative could lead to a one-on-one match or a broader multi-woman contest involving these rival factions in the coming weeks.
Significance of Hayter’s Return at Forbidden Door
Hayter’s comeback is pivotal for AEW’s women’s division, reigniting storylines that had been on hold due to her injury. This return not only sets the stage for an intense rivalry with Thekla but also revitalizes the tension with the Triangle of Madness. As AEW expands its storytelling at Forbidden Door, Jamie Hayter’s presence strengthens the competition and promises engaging matches ahead for fans eager to witness her next moves.
