Ruby Soho set to compete at major event outside of AEW
AEW star Ruby Soho is the latest big name to be signed to the huge "The WRLD on GCW" event that is scheduled to take place on January 23rd. Soho will face top GCW star Allie Katch at the legendary Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
The event, which has been sold out for a number of weeks, is set to be the most special show in GCW history. The venue is one that holds historic meaning within the wrestling industry.
Many of the early WWE Monday Night RAW episodes took place in the Manhattan Center, which is located next to the Hammerstein Ballroom. The Hammerstein itself is a venue that is synonymous with the final years of the original ECW.
Everything happens for a reason, and you have to trust that the universe will give you what you want when you're supposed to have it....

AEW's Ruby Soho will compete on the momentous card, taking on GCW staple Allie Katch. The announcement of the match was made via the GCW Twitter account, with Katch hyping the match up as one for the ages.
Katch described the match with Ruby Soho as one that she has been chasing since she began her career, and that finally both women are at similar destinations in their respective careers. With Soho and other stars scheduled to appear, this event is shaping up to be a must-see show for all wrestling fans.
Ruby Soho will be hoping to bounce back after her recent AEW loss
The diversion from All Elite Wrestling couldn't have come at a better time for Ruby Soho, who started off the year on shaky ground.
After she grinded her way through the TBS Championship Tournament, The Runaway suffered a crushing defeat in the finals. She lost a hard-fought bout to Jade Cargill last week on AEW Dynamite. This setback marked the second time Soho came up short in a title match in AEW.

Soho was able to gain a little momentum recently by partnering up with Riho. The two were able to defeat Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker, the current AEW Women's World Champion in a tag team battle.
Fans will have to tune in on January 23rd to see if Soho's success continues. The former WWE star will have her work cut out for her as she enters the Hammerstein Ballroom.
