Maggie Lee on AEW Dark match with Willow Nightingale

by Jess Core: Willow Nightingale

Maggie Lee opened up about a specific turning point during her AEW Dark match against Willow Nightingale back in 2023, admitting she was so new to the scene that she didn't even know how many matches she had worked up until that exact moment. She recalled a moment of confusion while wrestling other girls, asking herself why she was performing powerbombs and frickin' spinebusters when she had no real idea what she was doing. The dynamic shifted when she started talking to Willow, who asked what moves Maggie did, leading to the realization that they were both doing the same things like spinebuster and powerbomb without a plan. Despite being so frickin' green, Lee felt confident she could pull off the moves, but the experience ended up being so great because Willow is so, so, so sweet. The sweetness extended to after the match concluded, making the production feel great as well. Lee suggested this might have been the first time she actually used real wrestling gear, possibly if she remembers correctly, marking a strange milestone for someone who was brand new to the whole process.
