If they give Heather Monroe a more extended look, that's at least something. But man, she is good enough to have gotten a full match instead of getting jobber'ed. EDIT: Like seriously, she came all the way out from California for that? This was not a QT student or local wrestler thing. There's still another Dynamite taping and two Dark episodes during this week. She got some hits in on the champion, but wasn't going to get a long showing right off the bat.

6/17 - Abadon v Anna Jay (less than 2 minutes) 6/24 - Shida squash (less than 10 seconds) 7/1 - Shida/Ford title match (11 minutes) 7/8 - Nyla squash (less than 2 minutes) 7/15 - Brandi and Allie v MJ Jenkins and Kenzie Paige (less than 3 minutes) 722 - Ivelisse v Diamante (6 minutes) 7/29 - Shida v Diamante (5 minutes) Updated: 8/5 - Swole v Reba (less than 2 minutes) 8/12 - Shida match (2 minutes) I actually think on average the Divas division circa late 2000s got more time than this.

EDIT: Like seriously, she came all the way out from California for that? This was not a QT student or local wrestler thing. I'm assuming she has a DARK match within the next two episodes. Even then, any exposure is good exposure if they paid her. I agree that < 2min 30 sec is yet another bad look for AEW's Women's Division in a series of bad decisions, but I'm happy for Heather getting on cable TV and getting her name out.

The Deadly Draw Finals are gonna be on Next Week's Dynamite
Which for me is a step in the right direction.

If I had to venture a guess, they'll do the women's tag final next Saturday, and likely set up Shida's All Out opponent. I'm not guessing much more than that besides maybe something else to set up Swole/Britt at the PPV; seems to me they planned All Out around not having most of their women available, so they likely get through the PPV and then integrate the new signings from the tournament to some degree, hopefully bringing things closer to normal. People will definitely be paying attention on whether they do or not, given that long a stretch of time.

Oh good lord. Seeing it laid out like that. Eesh.

Nah I'm good BB and Allie have been the best they've been seperated, I honestly don't think it's happening that way anyway with Brandi's ego getting inflated.

Could see TayJay winning because DO needs ws next week, DO B team squad is so jobbing and Brodie vs Cody can go either way.

It's a Final where every match I feel has gone over or close to 10 minutes If it's not it'll be the straw that breaks the camels back

All laid out like that is really jarring. What I think is honestly worse about it is that the match is pretty much all you get of the women on Dynamite. A 2 minute match wouldn't be so bad if they at least also did interview segments or highlight packages or something.

Yeah, all I’m hoping at this point is that after some of the other stuff is done, they’re going to put more focus on the division again and it’s just the case of it being “bogged down” with tag team stuff.
Not excusing it at all, nor justifying it, but that’s sort of the only “reasoning” I have left because as others have said, they could at least be talking more about The Deadly Draw tournament.

Pretty much considering BB are returning to Dynamite and facing the Natural Nightmares and JE, it would be the perfect place to have Allie rejoin BB.

Shida vs. Monroe happened right before the main event, which is what WWE used to do often prior to #GiveDivasAChance, so that certainly didn't help.
I think having a women's match be the third one on Dynamite might prevent more time crunches for them in the future.

They really do. While a part of me thinking the tournament is the reason, but its been going on for a while, the they get one short mid 00s levels Divas match. They deserve better than that. If Omega is the brainchild behind this divison, he's failing. I get the pandamnic as limited some of women's wrestlers from being her but that shouldn't stop from having someone have a long good match with Shida.

OMEGA NEVER WAS THE BRAINCHILD OF THE DIVISION.Sorry,not lashing at you but people keep saying this stupid rumour. At the start of AEW he said he was in charge of MATCH PRODUCTION and of course dealing with the relation with TJPW(with Nakazawa) for the Joshi talent ,he simply helped with the matches. All of the division are in the end a group effort as Cody has again confirmed recently. Its not Brandi's fault,or Kenny's,its all of them together as a group.

As brought up before, this would be a nice way to assuage some fears:
EDIT: And Cody has an early response...
