That sounds like a manager to me if she mostly doesn't wrestle outside the Rumble and the title win then just runs a stable Edited because you edited more context Big Coffin Hunter fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Dec 1, 2023 |

KungFu Grip posted:she's not the manager she's like clearly the leader of the stable and the only one important in the group of jobbers she bosses around lmao. and wwe was clearly behind her being the only woman in a mens stable and doing some intergender stuff where she was attacking and bodyslamming dudes bigger than her up to entering at 1 in the rumble to the end and winning the title at mania. Like WWE rear end but they at least try to actually make the women stars in their division when they actually care about them, same with Bianca Yes which is why I really don't want Mercedes to go back there because she would just get fed to Rhea the same way she was just fed to Charlotte and Alexa and Ronda.

The last time anyone was booked or treated like a star in the womens division was Britt and Jade

AEW tried to make Jade a star. It worked. In a sense. Other than that: I just don't think there are any women in AEW that can be made stars on the level of Rhea or Mercedes. There is a critical deficit of charisma and ability to carry ones self outside of the ring. Outside of Hayter maybe, but she got hella injured.

Both companies suck at booking women consistently but in AEW Mercedes would be the featured player instead of being fed to the featured player who is mostly important for the men's division

WWE should be scrambling to try and get her back to do Four Horsewomen vs. Damage CTRL.

Athena is the hottest thing on RoH and has the main storyline focus of the entire show currently, aligned/feuding with the second best young American wrestler and hasn't been pinned since she won the title (ignoring once on the indies v Yamashita with a dusty) She is probably pretty happy with that, though it'd be cooler on TV.

It's very close, but at least the Fight Forever trons are advertising an actual All Elite Wrestling product, even if it is a terrible one.

They were really poorly handled. and there's no way to undo it, unfortunately. They wasted their first match in AEW on a random Dynamite against Private Party instead of, you know, hyping up their return to the ring as a tag team and making people shell out for a PPV to see it against the Young Bucks. Once people saw them in the ring multiple times, there was a lost interest in their PPV match because everyone could see they were cooked, which is the second bad move: they were completely over-exposed when it's clear both of them, especially Jeff, are way past their prime and restricted in what they can do in the ring. Not only were we seeing the Hardyz fighting against mid-carders regularly, but they also were doing violent gimmick matches, on free TV, regularly, which also didn't make sensse. The way they have handled Sting, on the other hand, has been absolutely perfect. He's used sparingly, but when he is, it's very impactful and plays to his strengths (and protects his weaknesses as a 60 year-old in the ring). Every time Sting comes out there, the fans go nuts, still, and that's a testament to how well he's been booked in AEW. The Hardyz, on the other hand, were booked to immediately just be another mid-card tag team feuding with other mid-card tag teams doing gimmick matches and showing the entire world that they suck now. PS. Also Jeff Hardy should not have been allowed back anyway
