dry rub buffalo and lemon pepper go hard. Jerk Wings are tasty and remind me of my friend MJeff

Garlic and Parmesan is criminally underrated and you can crush a million of them without getting all spiced out

They’re a good reset course between other wings too for this same reason.

I am also skeptical of Mercedes' drawing power but that's cause I'm not familiar with her work outside of her NJPW thing. Not cause I'm a bad faith troll. She seemed to draw big for that NJPW show in California where she broke her dang foot so I'm hopeful. In any case it's clear that Tony or someone was convinced to book more women's matches and segments since Mone was signed. Maybe as part of her contract, I dunno. I would struggle to say that AEW's women's division is good, but I think some effort is being put into making it better, which is more than I could say for 2023.

I only eat boneless wings. With mild buffalo sauce.

For real wings either a classic buffalo or lemon pepper, but a guilty pleasure of mine from my Baby Palate days is the boneless “wings” with honey bbq.

Sincerely, the absolute dumbest motherfucker on the planet.

They still don't have enough good women's wrestlers, They don't do house shows or training to get them reps, the best one is on the zombie show, and he still can't book them. So what will change.

AEW has had 32 game changers "restoring the feeling" for a few months until "Man we really need to restore the feeling again"

Same tbh. People kept raving about how she’s some crossover mainstream megastar that’s gonna bring in all these eyes because she was in a Star Wars spinoff streaming show for like 10 minutes and stan twitter loves her but I just don’t see it.

I’ll happily be proven wrong or enjoy being proven right, the win/win position.

I am not expecting nor demanding for Monè to have the entire division revolve around her. But to risk inching too close to mecca right now, I'll say it at least has felt like they're trying to showcase more women's matches lately and if that has anything to do with Monè then her hire is already paying off to me.

Even if her matches have a ceiling of "good," I would gladly take it.

she's a proven big ratings draw and a proven decent enough attendance draw. i don't think she's going to be a massive Big Bu$$iness changer, but there's a difference between "being skeptical" and whatever subhuman dogshit the rape loving sex trafficking supporters like emf pretend to think for lulz

They're objectively putting more creative muscle into the women's division right now. They're pushing more people like Rosa and Deeb, having more matches, more promos and more stories and they're both acquiring major free agents like Purazzo and Mone and trying to build people up from the bottom like Skye Blue (who I think sucks but whatever) and Queen Aminata (who I think is actually kinda cool).

I don't know if it's "Khan hired Mone and paid her so much it forces him to put more effort into the women" or "Khan wanted to put more effort into the women's division, so he hired Mone", but I'm leaning towards the former.

I’ve seen every Mercedes match that was televised or broadcast.

She’s good but better when she has someone equally good or better to wrestle with. Please don’t call me a “rape lover” for saying this.

Like every woman in that company who worked there at the same time as she did had the best match of their life with Mercedes, lol.

The only exception I can think of is Asuka and even that's a close one.
