Counterpoint: Champion vs. Challenger works just fine for puro promotions. I just care about good matches for the most part.

Plus, like, adding a formal tag team division for women in a promotion that clearly values tag team wrestling seems like a no-brainer. It's weird how some people just dig their heels in over it, as if women having a tag title to compete over is some sort of personal defeat for them. "Oh nooooooo, there's women's tag team wrestling in AEW now. Nnnnnooooooo."

or don't?
I can't imagine not eventually walking out halfway through the show that tends to book its matches an hour before the show, if not actually halfway into the show

independent contractor + putting body on the line at least once a week + oh you want to also fill my job with surprises, that's cool

edit: like the "not even an indy promotion wants people who walk out" argument is funny to me, because an indy promotion would expect this if they kept swapping plans and walking back promises and rewriting scripts hours before showtime for months on end. Indy promotions tend to know better. Oh no what if Sasha does the same thing on Tony Khan's show, a show that is written, structured, booked and generally handled in an entirely different way with a clear intent to work with the talent instead of "sending a message," and what if I win the lottery despite never buying a ticket

The line about Sasha and Naomi disappointing "millions of fans", when the main event wasn't even announced until after Raw started, is such a loving joke. Esepcailly when WWE advertised Sasha vs Bianca at Summerslam knowing that Sasha wasn't going to be there. And even sold t-shirt that said "I was there!" to fans.

Not only that, but they change their main events from what was advertised all the loving time, often halfway through the show.

That’s kinda their thing: just rewrite reality and hope none of their dumb followers notice. It’s mostly worked. Granted they don’t have millions upon millions of followers but they still have a devoted core and able to swindle money from companies on the promise of fans that will watch no matter what. Not like of us have a million and a half drones that send most of their wages for zero effort. Most of us have to actually “try” and look like we care.

Oh yeah the guy griping about Sasha and Naomi: you should add in the nickname Botcha Stanks. Been a while and adds that extra layer of “gotcha”. Hopefully neither go back crawling to the scummy fed. Working in a call centre has got the be the only place more soul crushing than working in wwe. Walk the gently caress out like your last name is Hardy. Still laugh at him just noping out mid match and wwe going full hog with “he’s on drugs again” on social media afterwards. Hopefully this happens more and more.

This feels right. Everyone from WWE to Sasha and Naomi to their stans will all agree it was a work because this being a shoot has made everyone involved look very dumb.

My favorite part of that is how Miz and Truth just drop to their knees and get arrested peacefully. They had completely accepted that what they did was wrong and, instead of fighting against the cop, they wanted to be arrested.

My least favorite is HHH having to keep the position of power.
