Deonna is a really good wrestler, but not a great "character," so I can see why she didn't work out in WWE. I think Impact is ultimately the right landing spot for her, and I'm excited to see what she does.

Shes' doing it in TNA now I guess. I really need to take time and watch that poo poo.

i wouldn't automatically assume The Tony Crew has failed to offer the most money to people like jordynne and deonna. impact might be irrelevant but it still offers good money and for women, impact has a better roster to work with and is less of a question mark about the possibility for legitimate artistic gratification

I am amending my previous post to say "Open your wallet and create an environment in which women's wrestlers can feel confident they will find creative gratification working for your company, Coward Toney" Also after further research it looks like Deonna might be on a per-appearance deal with Impact? But also, Kenny tweeted about how the AEW woman's roster didn't need any improving because there was a good title match. But I guess you can't read too much into a guy defending the wrestlers who have already signed with his company. In conclusion, I would like it if good women's wrestlers performed for the wrestling company I watched, and also they liked doing it

AEW has three hours a week and a lot of women's talent and they all seem pretty happy, creatively fulfilled, and free to choose the direction of their characters. I don't know why AEW needs to emulate the WWE model of signing everyone mentioned in their DMs and then finding they don't have enough TV time to showcase them.

AEW caught lightning in a bottle 3 times with Riho, Nyla(surprising everyone because she was pretty eh at first) and now Hikaru Shida. They have folks with potential in the pipeline. Kris Statlander has something. Anna Jay definitely has something.

The only real issue I have with AEW's women's division right now is the lack of storylines. They get to be their characters and have cool matches, but I sorta wish they had more going on in terms of stories than "number one contender vs. champ"

He was just standing up for their work from some weirdo dude who admittedly watches only women's wrestling and freaked out on him because they didn't sign Deonna. He didn't say there was no room to improve. Honestly he probably shouldn't have replied at all to him since now that guy is replying being argumentative with women who are replying to Kenny showing support.

I don't know why AEW needs to emulate the WWE model of signing everyone mentioned in their DMs and then finding they don't have enough TV time to showcase them. They have like four active rostered women's wrestlers right now. If Swole is able to compete and Britt gets cleared in less than two months then that helps, but I would like to see more than one women's match a week on TV sometimes and storylines built outside of the title picture. They've got One Billion tag teams but they're probably still gonna sign The Revival; more depth in the women's division should absolutely be a priority. I'm sure it's tough to make long-term plans at this particular moment, and there is the element of wanting to have time for people like Anna Jay and Sadie Gibbs who you're hoping to grow in-house. But yeah, I do think Kenny is wrong to suggest the division couldn't use help

Deonna Perazzo (who before Impact her most notable character trait was "had a Ferreri logo on her gear") is not the hill to die on

That's not Kenny saying they don't need any improvement that's Kenny saying that just because they didn't sign that talent does not mean they don't have a good division and I think he's right.

last year kenny said that by the end of 2020 he wants maki itoh to be a fixture in aew so i think the original plan was to bring in more women from tjpw, but alas,

If the only thing he did was import people from TJPW and Gatoh Move he'd be doing fantastic. Imagine Hyper Misao on AEW television. She's even reasonably fluent in English!

I have no issues with the quality of the AEW women's matches or the size of their roster. The problem for me is that none of the feuds have been memorable, even if the matches have been memorable.

I think we can all agree that in all three cases even though we knew they were great they were not living up to their potential at the start because they needed to find their groove in AEW but now they are all three killin' it every week

AJ was on Corey's podcastAJ Styles posted:Losing Gallows and Anderson really hurt me. Getting away from Raw helps me get over it — I don’t know if I’ll get over it, but it helps change the atmosphere around me and to do something different. My whole time on Raw was basically with them. To get away from that and get to SmackDown, where I’ve had a lot of success, it’s a good thing.

cams posted:i thought nyla was great from go. hangman's only problem was losing the PAC match before his title shot against Jericho, just cause most people didn't know him and needed to see him really go. Going 25 minutes against Kip Sabian at Fight for the Fallen hurt Hangman worse I think. Should have been a 10 minute match tops. All I could think was the challenger for the title can't even put away this geek?
