Dasha Gonzalez To Team With Rachael Ellering In AEW Deadly Draw, New Match Set For 8/10

A new team has entered the Deadly Draw and one of its participants is an unexpected one.

During today's Deadly Draw drawing, Madusa revealed that Dasha Gonzalez, who had been server as a broadcaster for AEW, will be wrestling in the tournament. After Gonzalez picked out her color, it was revealed that she matched with Rachael Ellering and the two of them will team up on the August 10 edition of the tournament.

She and Ellering, who is making her AEW Dark debut on August 11, will take on the team of Ivelisse & Diamante. 

Dasha, who usually only does ring announcing, does have wrestling experience. She was originally hired by WWE as a wrestler and competed in one NXT match. However, AEW's QT Marshall noted on Twitter Monday that she'd been training with Shawn Spears at Flatbacks Gym.

In the first week of the tournament, the Nightmare Sisters (Brandi & Allie) defeated Penelope Ford & Mel and in addition, Tay Conti & Anna Jay defeated Nyla Rose & Ariane Andrew to advance to the semifinals.
