I read “Willow” as “Wardlow” at first and was highly confused/amused.

Reports now saying that AEW is passing on Giulia because she failed to bring Tony a fun hat when she arrived at the locker room, per tradition.

Saying that Emi's problem with Giulia is because of IR and not mentioning the time where Giulia tried to sneak diss Emi in an interview because Emi was critical of her hair vs hair match with Tam (as in questioning the purpose of one in this day and age because it's an outdated trope for women) which resulted in Emi making a nearly 2 hour long response video straight up titled "To Giulia from Emi Sakura" makes that reporting kind of suspect.

I don't have a strong opinion of Giulia as I've only seen a few of her matches and also her interview with Jushin Thunder Liger but I'm glad so much time was spent discussing AEW not being interested in her because something SRS did not report.

I stole something that would make me fabulously wealthy...

But I eated it.
Annoying how much hay is being made about poo poo that didn't get reported when there's a real thing that did get reported, where NJPW put their "international" title on her and she pulled herself from the US show she was booked to lose the title on after she retained at Battle in the Valley. Big "I'm going to the US so I don't want to lose there" energy, and while that's partly on NJPW for letting her hold the title after her contract was up, I don't think it ingratiates her much if she's not willing to honor her prior agreements with regards to booking the belt.

I don't know how much stock to put into anything else, but that's enough to come off as more than a bit gross, especially when AEW has a perception issue with "newcomers unwilling to do jobs". Giulia is great (I was at BitV and her match with Trish was excellent and she came off as a total star), but I think the problem with AEW's women's division isn't "not enough good women" any more.

AEW passed on Giulia, not because she works too stiff but because Tony always thought Thekla was better anyway

I don't care what the dirtsheets report or not, I'll still believe that Emi has the clout to blackball wrestlers from AEW and is flexing those muscles accordingly.

the disciplinary committee was going to let Punk stay with AEW until Emi, who had been silent throughout proceedings, said "gently caress that guy, no second chances".

"The Cruncher" is such a silly nickname. "The Crusher" sounds more intimidating but has already been used. "The Cruncher" just sounds like a cartoon character.

Montreal was having an amazing time during Jay White vs. Jay Lethal and the referee for the following match got an angry "You're not Jay!" chant directed at him.
