Tay Melo Reacts To TayJay Losing In AEW Women’s Tag Title Tourney: “Sometimes Things Don’t Go The Way You Hoped, Even When Your Heart Is All In”
A message from Tay Melo.
Quarterfinal matches in the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship tournament were on the bill for the 11/19 AEW Dynamite/Collision three-hour special.
One of the tournament matches saw Marina Shafir and Megan Bayne defeat TayJay (Tay Melo & Anna Jay). After the match, Melo took to X and wrote a message to her and Anna’s supporters about the loss.
Tonight was hard.
When the world shut down during Covid, Anna and I used to talk about one day competing for these tag belts. Five years later, that dream finally became real… and losing in the first round hurts in a way that’s hard to explain.We believed in this moment so much. We poured so much of ourselves into this team, into growing together, into giving everything every time we stepped in the ring.
Sometimes things don’t go the way you hoped ,even when your heart is all in.
It is what it is.But I’m grateful for everyone who’s been on this journey with us and for all the love you’ve shown.
Thank you for caring as much as we did.I love you
