Also, Deeb and Shida are engaged in a blood feud that's bigger than a title, Tay just had a shot at Baker and has just finished a never-ending feud, and Statlander's kind of just there right now. Like it or not, Jade was brought in to be a big deal and with these things I'd rather they pull the trigger than waste weeks of booking and change plans. There will be other champions. Relax. As a regular viewer of both Dark & Elevation, I'm more interested in the brewing Statlander/Hirsch feud than I am with either Women's champion which is sad...

I’m going to come in here and say a lot of people in this thread need to calm the hell down. None of this is worth this much discussion.
Also, the people who are poking the bear repeatedly, I see you, I know who you are and you can knock it off too.

One of the biggest criticisms about the women's division is the lack of feuds or storylines that don't involve the title. Shida vs. Deeb fits that mold and we need to see more non-title feuds as built up as that, not less.

It's actually got a unique hook, too, since feuding with two different singles wrestlers simultaneously via tagging with them is something I can't recall seeing before.

The more feuds for the women the better.

So, will this be used as "open challenge" or "build to ppv" type of belt?? I feel it'd make sense to be a gatekeeper style title to help elevate the lower card, while the top tier of Britt, Rosa, Statlander, Ruby,Shida and Deeb can be free for the AEW women's.
My roster: - Layla Hirsch - Red Velvet (built in feud) - Diamante - Ryo - Megan Bayne

So...Who should end Jades streak? Now that Ruby's not getting it...I'd have to say either Thunder Rosa or Red Velvet. Velvet because the natural arc of her wrestling Jade again just about demands that she win next time. Rosa because, given how much the predictability of Rosa beating Baker has drained excitement from Baker's title reign, I think that giving Rosa the TBS belt and Ruby the world title would be the right kind of swerve where it makes things more interesting for each of them.

So...Who should end Jades streak? Right now, it looks like Thunder Rosa, who's dealing with her and Mercedes. Baker looks to be tied up with Riho, Ruby, and Hayter, so there may not be much time left before Revolution to do a title feud between Baker and Rosa.

Velvet beating Jade would be real poetic. I'd love to see that.
On a related note, it's amusing seeing Mercedes working face by being friends with Mickie James against Deonna Purrazzo in Impact while a heel in AEW.

I felt the same way when Gigi Dolin was a fighting face NOVA Champion in Shine, but was a heel valet for Austin Theory in EVOLVE in 2017/early 2018.

So...Who should end Jades streak? Jade shouldn't have won imo, but now that she has they should use this streak to help build up the next big babyface star. I'd go with Anna Jay. Tay Conti also a good option but she's already had breakout moments. A veteran or established big name like Rosa, Deeb or Soho doesn't need the rub wasted on them and Statlander should be in the main event along with Britt, Rosa Deeb and Shida fighting for the Women's title

Velvet has a story but honestly Velvet is not that good for the rub.

Obvious from the start Jade was winning it. Don't see the appeal personally especially as a champion. Far too green.

It's not as if she'll be champion forever. It's just a big name to start their new title.
Personally think a mid-card workhorse title has Kris Statlander's name all over it.

I like Jade and think she has a lot of potential and has a real presence to her but I think she’s way too green for this
She’s still quite awkward at times and could have used some seasoning. Plus I’m a big Ruby fan and think she’d have given the title a good weight behind it to begin with
And I do understand the thinking behind giving it to Jade, just don’t agree with it but it is what it is
