It was Kris\u2019s only match in the tournament as she drew a bye in the first round. She has had to contend with Red Velvet abandoning their friendship not too long ago during her feud with \u201cLegit\u201d Leyla Hirsch.<\/p>\n<p>Both women faced Baker when she was AEW Women\u2019s Champion in the fall. Statlander challenged unsuccessfully at All Out, the same show on which Ruby made her AEW debut and won the Women\u2019s Casino Battle Royal.

I don\u2019t know if I like that. She\u2019s already come up short in the title match too so that\u2019s a lot of losing for my taste. Kris doesn\u2019t feel like much more of an exciting choice, so it\u2019s a pick \u2018em for me.
