On December 17, 2022, Billie Starkz made her AEW in-ring debut at the Dark tapings from Universal Studios in Orlando, FL.
The 18-year-old indie talent went one-on-one with former AEW Women’s World Champion Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. and later taped another match against Red Velvet.
Speaking on the Joshi Pod, Starkz reflected on her in-ring debut for AEW. She said,
“It was a really great experience. It was definitely a very comfortable environment for me, I feel like I was immediately welcomed in and wasn’t stressed at all. I think that was also because I had so many friends there already. I had Skye (Blue), who I shared a hotel room with, hyping me up the entire day and getting me excited to go. Then, I ran into Top Flight [Darius & Dante Martin] and hung out with them. They’re my friends from F1RST Wrestling in Minnesota and are great guys, who have stayed at my house before. I was like, ‘Oh, this will be great, I’ll get to see everybody.’”
AEW aired Starkz vs. Velvet on the December 27th episode of Dark. Billie’s match against Britt Baker is yet to be aired.
Starkz has previously wrestled for TJPW and GCW, and is set to debut for MLW this month.
