She would be AEWs Ronda, like how Ronda elevated the WWE Women division...

Ronda’s run was fantastic (as was Ronda in-ring). Yeah it was largely the booking standpoint If Amanda decided to do the wrestling thing my only hope is it doesn't dive into the "I did MMA so Im obviously better than all of you" shit.

Ronda’s run was fantastic (as was Ronda in-ring). Yeah I wasn't watching Raw, but I'd go out of my way to watch her matches somewhere. Watching her develop over that year was outstanding. Amanda could easily transition if other MMA people are any indication (Riddle, Ronda, Lawlor, etc)

Time for a women's tag belt. Gives reason for women to be on show & can showcase talent who've been confined to dark for months

More belts isn't the answer honestly. You don't need belts to feature people. If you need a belt to just get someone on tv then you really need to rethink your booking.
Anyway, come Wednesday, Hikaru Shida will not have been seen on tv in about 41 days which is frankly super f***ing embarrassing. That would not happen to any of the top guys. She didn't even get to cut a promo about losing the belt, she was just taken off tv.

Rosa is doing her NWA duties, Riho was in Japan until recently ,Jade has been featured a lot.

When was Jade last on dynamite for match??

When was Jade last on dynamite for match?? Yeh but shebis a NWA talent very likely NWA would rather she stay in NWA for now. Yeh riho returned recently, hoepfully we will see her in thr main show and match or no math Jade is still featured.

Somebody should tell nwa that Rosa works dark. Huge part of their roster haven't been featured in months. Creation of tag titles will change that

I've never seen women's tag belts work in promotions that weren't exclusively a female roster. Not even Impact or NXT make it work and both feature their women's divisions prominently.

Tag titles worked for wwe back in 1988 when they had only two teams!! It's no different to singles - just build up talent & give then rivalries. Idea that tag team wrestling can't work specifically for women sounds to me just like old prejudice. Nwa title gave reason to have Serena on show & she got herself over with her work. Conti & Velvet were elevated by those matches also. Creation of tag titles & build around that will get wrestlers on TV - talent of wrestlers them self will allow them to get over

You need dedicated teams instead of just mashing up singles wrestlers together. And it does nothing to actually address the issues with featuring the women on Dynamite, especially if the issues are more related to a choice being made for them by TNT instead of it being entirely up to AEW. Just instead of seeing a singles match and maybe a promo segment on Dynamite, you might see a tag match instead while all the other women's matches are still on Dark and Elevation.

If issue is TNT pushing for only one women's segment then that is another matter. Although given how women perform ratings wise for the competition that's short sighted. I remember Chris Harrington saying the best rated matches for opposition were women's. One thing I have faith in is Tony Khan ability to match up wrestlers; Sky & Page, Sting & Darby, Tay & Jay... Just based on math tag team will get more ppl on show

Rosa's been focusing on MMA too. Which is also why AEW hasn't committed to her yet fully. This has been Rosa's choice so it's hard to blame them for it. And they really need to build the division up more on TV before introducing more belts imo. Like that isnt the solution for any problems.
