The Brawling Birds retained the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship in a violent Chicago Street Fight against Divine Dominion at All Out.

Jamie Hayter & Alex Windsor defeated Megan Bayne & Lena Kross after Windsor pinned Kross following Two Birds, One Stone onto a pile of thumbtacks.

The match quickly spilled around ringside, with chairs and tables introduced almost immediately. Divine Dominion gained control when Bayne booted Hayter from the apron and Kross followed with a powerbomb through a table.

Windsor was later held across the top rope while Bayne struck her repeatedly with a kendo stick. Hayter eventually returned to turn the momentum, using the stick herself before dropping Bayne onto a barbed-wire chair with a DDT.

The violence escalated from there.

Kross was trapped beneath a trash can before Hayter came off the top with a diving attack, while Bayne and Windsor both came up bleeding during the match.

Divine Dominion later hit Windsor with a double chokeslam through two chairs, but Hayter broke up the pin.

Bayne then dragged part of the ringside barricade into the ring. Kross attempted to suplex both champions onto it, only for Hayter & Windsor to reverse the move and send Kross crashing into the metal instead.

The challengers brought a barbed-wire board into the ring and propped it in a corner. Bayne was subsequently driven through it with a Death Valley Driver from Hayter.

Kross then emptied a bag of thumbtacks onto the canvas and attempted to use them against Windsor.

Hayter intervened, and the champions hit Two Birds, One Stone onto the tacks, allowing Windsor to cover Kross for the three-count.

The victory keeps the Brawling Birds’ title reign intact after several weeks of attacks from Divine Dominion leading into All Out.
