'It's good the women are leading a new platform venture' and 'it's bad more women's matches weren't on Dynamite' can both be true

The women's tournament needed to be relegated to the internet because it is secondary to Jade Cargill the new ace of the division.

I think for a roster a deep and talented as AEW, the title breakdown (for the men) should be 3 singles titles, and 2 tag titles. I'm hesitant about a Trios title, because in the past, 6-Man belts in America never worked because there was never a dedicated division. It was always either a tag team and a singles guy, or three singles guys, and they always had their own programs going on outside the 6-Man belts, so they were always treated as an afterthought.

It's not weird to like matches that can go 20 minutes with no commercial breaks. It's not tying in knots either. I don't like this discourse because it so often looks like "Were there 2 women's matches on Dynamite? If no, we riot." I think there's more to it than that. Idk. It's exhausting hearing how poor AEW's women's division is doing in every social space in active spite of match quality going up, ratings trending up, and an influx of new popular talent. It's like it's finally all coming together and the discourse stayed the exact same.

I mean regardless of match quality which I agree has gone way up it’s always going to come down to tv time. Everyone hypes up all the matches on dark but it still only gets half the eyeballs of the tv show weekly and the tournament matches even less than that.

Make the main event of next week's Dynamite the finals of the women's tournament, imho. They haven't done a women's match as the main event of the show yet (at least that I remember) and this is a perfect time to do it.

Is the only women’s match at Revolution so far the title? AEW normally does more than 1, so I’m curious what else we’ll see. Maybe Rosa / Britt if Rosa doesn’t win it all.

SonicRulez posted:The TNT title scene is as full as the tag title scene meaning there's like 15 people who could be champion and I'd be happy with it. I hope they don't fall into WWE's standard of just having 50 belts. They could probably afford a bit of hotshot. Ricky, Sammy, Miro, Archer, both Lucha Bros, PAC, Eddie, and I'm sure I'm missing a few here and there. One of my Wrestling Hot Takes is that I'd be interested in more belt movement in general, but I think it's definitely true for a secondary title that is currently lacking any strong identity. Cody trying to brand it as the "ace belt" is nonsense. Calling the belt holder "The Face of TNT" is nonsense if the belt holder doesn't get treated any differently once he wins it. Make whoever holds it defend it regularly on TV. That gives "The Face of TNT" branding a lot more weight, and it lets you bounce the belt around because a two-month title reign isn't so shabby if it includes six successful defenses

I guess I don't care for "It's always going to be TV time" because discourse isn't sat there with a stopwatch for any other division. I have no idea how much the TNT title scene is featured. It just seems like a forever way to demean a division that's working really hard to change its perception. 2019 was not good and 2020 stumbled really hard in a lot of very visible places. 2021 is doing pretty good though. I will say there should be an NWA Women's Title division booked separately from the AEW Women's World Championship division.

It was always either a tag team and a singles guy, or three singles guys, and they always had their own programs going on outside the 6-Man belts, so they were always treated as an afterthought. They'd need another show. I like the idea of trios titles, but 2 hours is just not enough for all of that.

Not going to happen but i'd love to see AEW signing Mick Foley just to have Tony Schiavone have a interview with him, more so after the "this will put some butts in the seats". https://twitter.com/tonyschiavone24/status/1346177231450742785

They should make a Simpsons Tapped Out style game where you build your own arena and backstage area. You could have various locker rooms, training centres, bars, etc. Then you have little wrestler sprites running around and you could set them up to fight each other to earn whatever virtual currency they would use to unlock more content or upgrades. Whales could support the game through purchasing exclusive cash only items like the Stadium Stampede arena or a Big Money Matt skin.
