AEW Women's Division Discussion

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

While yes they still need to find ways to improve, I'm just happy I can look at the division and actually see depth potential and promise now. There are a ton of great names and a lot of great potential. I get some people still aren't high on the division and say it still needs work, but I'm just happy to see some genuine effort into building a confident roster.

Conti has come so far in just a few months, Anna Jay's not even at 20 matches yet, there's a good chunk of girls developing in training that are very young and very hungry, they finally look like they're getting some sustainable pillars and even some big time names back in Riho, and Statlander when she's cleared will also be a huge boost.

Essnentially, the less the division has to heavily lean on the likes of Ford and Swole like it had to do this year, the better off it is going to be. Not even a slight to Ford or Swole they have positives to their games, but it's really nice to see them needed much less, especially since Swole's seemingly reteaching her whole game.

Also I think the Thunder Rosa v Britt Baker match at beach break should be the first women's match to main event an AEW show.

That would send a message that they're taking the division seriously. Plus the feud would be deserving of that spot

Or least put it at the top of the hour imo

Anna was AEW rookie of the year with the way she has evolved, from Zatanna cosplay to the Queen Slayer.

This sucks and hopefully Nyla didnt get the covid like Rosa when she got exposed to someone who got it.

Well Fire and Flava, the new TNA Women's Tag Champs are calling out the female Tag Teams in AEW.

Something to note is that Diamante is in a relationship with Kiera Hogan, one half of the women's champs as they were the first not to mention last tag champs in WOW.

I wouldn't mind the Impact Women's Tag Titles crossing over with AEW at all, it definitely beats AEW making their own belts and could use both divisions in a fun way

Oh my god, AEW combining its women's division along with Impact's is just perfect. Please make it happen!

Hirsch vs Ford is the replacement match for Dynamite in light of Nyla having to go into Quarantine

I feel like Ford is going to win to push for the wedding, which makes sense, but man Hirsch is one of those wrestlers where I feel the more you showcase her the harder it is gonna be to deny her a big TV win.

I mean Ford really shouldn’t win. You don’t need a push for a wedding.

[Harry The Arrow was Wrong!]

Yeah, Ford does not need this win right now. Hirsch should absolutely go over

With Chucke T at ringside, they should have him "help" Leyla go over if they want to protect Penelope.

That seems to be the likely idea. Like he inadvertently clips Penelope’s foot and his excuse is that they looked similar.

Taya Valkryie appears done with Impact

Be completely weird if she doesn’t join John Morrison in WWE to be honest.

Stranger things have happened, though.

A ton of wrestling couples aren't with one another right now, so the thought that they go where their husband or wife is doesn't seem as prominant these days

I'd love to see her in AEW frankly, more strong depth is always a plus for them  If not AEW she might be a surprise for the Dusty Classic... 

[Dr. Bolty, Disaster Enby]

Taya seems like a complete coin flip to where she ends up. Higher ceiling of WWE versus being a key player that AEW wouldn't want to do without.

If AEW can sign both Taya and Allysin Kay, though...well, they sure lose any excuse for talent depth, because at that point, the roster is really strong.

It is also a little strange because she was written off Impact by getting arrested. So if she goes to AEW, she's either going to have to not do cross promotion with Impact or they will have to come up with a reason why she's back on Impact when she does.

I'm actually a little surprised they haven't done any interactions with the women yet. Would have thought that would be one of the first things to do.

Tony Khan bailed her from jail. Dumb? Yes, but also that’d be a weird way to add a wrinkle to the Impact rivalry.

I’d say the Good Brothers stuff was the testing ground and with Private Party coming for a spell, floodgates are widening. Personally, I would have done it first but on the other hand, the women were occupied with the tag tournament and Doenna was facing Rosemary and Taya so it wasn’t like they had anyone to spare.

The only way Taya does not end up in WWE IMO is if WWE does not want her. because her husband is there , alot of friends of her are there (Kross and Scarlett being notable ones) and alot of dream matches she has talked about wanting are there for her.

To be fair, it makes total sense that the next step would get getting the tag teams involved, because Impact has steadily lost a lot of depth in their tag team division, with The Rascalz leaving, HEATH getting injured, Ethan Page leaving, the Deaners breaking up (though I guess they gained Violence by Design in the process), and even Alex Shelley isn't going to be around this next set of shows. Private Party taking an extended run in Impact is the best thing they could have gotten.
