They only had that rule when Watt's ran the company cause Watt's sure did love 80's rules along with his racism

I wouldn't say the match was really good. It was fine. Mone was terrible on commentary, and op was talking about the TBS title scene, which is now a mess because of Mercedes.

Mercedes wants revenge on Willow (I guess?).

Julia Hart is staring daggers at Mercedes.

Willow just won a title shot against Julia at the ppv.

Unless this is turning into a three way I am baffled.

Willow will beat Julia, who she has been feuding with, and then Mercedes will want to wrestle Willow, who she has history with. Statlander may turn heel. Stokely is around. It's not that difficult.

They should probably run Mercedes vs. Skye Blue or something at the PPV. It's strange she hasn't had a match yet but I'm hoping it's soon. Gonna guess she's still healing.

No, Khan just wants her first match to be on PPV because he wants to pull out the string of "hey look! It's this new person! Come see this new person! Wow! Wooooooow! Are they wrestling anybody yet? Hey, come look at this new person! Woooooooow!"

He did it with Sting, he did it with Punk, this is just one of his booking quirks.

It's fair enough, and not bad booking in a vacuum, but there's a long wait from now 'til the PPV. Such is life when you have to have the big Boston show, I suppose. I wanna see her wrestle!!

Wrestling is built on dangling strings and breadcrumbs and by setting up multiple rivalries it allows for an interlocking web of characters and matches for the future, especially when a new wrestler with a lot of hype shows up. Anna Jay was a new wrinkle thrown in tonight, as well. There are several matches that could come out of the four-way plus Mercedes that may happen in the future.

in what way is the other one tied up because the world title scene feels dead in comparison

As she's going to be in AEW for longer than a single match, I think there's a decent chance that Mercedes may eventually wrestle both Willow and Julia.

Ratings dropping hard, but still third behind sports. Last two shows have been stellar, so it's not show quality. Guess Meltzer is right and it's hard being #2.
