Thunder Rosa booking in AEW.

[The Blue Nova]

Does anyone feel Thunder Rosa in AEW has kinda been put on the back burner for Jade Cargill and her title. Thunder came in had an amazing match with Brit Baker and even at the PPV on sunday had an amazing match with Serena Deeb. I just feel despite that and the fact she has charisma a great look a great role model and being the champion as well being a great wrestler I feel she does not get as much Tv time as Jade Cargill does. Don't get me wrong Jade has an amazing look but its weird to me how she constantly is in angles promoted has her own stable and is always on TV, where as the Woman's champion herself isn't on as much. I have heard Thunder Rosa is unhappy about AEW and I can kind of see why.It is strange how the Woman's Champion is playing second fiddle to the person with the Secondary title

She got sick last night

She was banged up when she won the title and essentially hung back until she was ready to fight Nyla and then Deeb, and I guess that explains why she wasn't on the show last night as well

Just some things that are completely out of AEW's control. Health comes first, Rosa's too important, and they know she's important.

Also where did you hear Rosa is unhappy? Any source? Because she's been very outspoken about defending the women's division and the work they're doing lately.

I don't trust WhatCulture, nor do I trust "Unnamed Sources"

If Rosa was sick, then she was sick, and the doctors told her she couldn't be on the show. I trust PWInsider's info way more. I don't see how that would leave her angry unless she wanted to cut a promo no matter what, but like, cut it on Rampage, it's live, they can make time for you. Don't do it if you're sick.

The timing on Rosa with her injury and getting sick sucks, but none of that is on AEW, so I don't trust that "She's upset" report at all unless someone more reputable backs it up.

I don't really see what she would've done on Dynamite even if she had been feeling well. There aren't really any good challengers for her right now. The best I can think of would be maybe a filler speedbump feud with Abadon. Maybe Tay Conti?

I heard SRS had backed up the claim about Rosa being unhappy during a stream he did.

Anyways would not be surprised if she was because compared to Jade she has been given didly squat as far as screentime goes.

She was given two long promos, a main event title match, and multiple backstage segments, all of which worked around injuries that were greatly effecting her ring work

If she was sick per PWI, then I get her frustrations, but her health has always come first and they've been essentially trying to make sure she's 100 percent

Hopefully she feels better by Rampage

To be clear he said she was not happy with the Nyla Rose feud and the feeling dome of her segments are rushed however SRS reiterated no bad blood and q lot of Rosa's frustrations are down to having high standards for herself and being frustrated due to injuries

[Mid-Carder]

You would certainly think from the presentation that Jade is the world champion and Rosa the mid-card champion

That makes sense, though I do still think there's more they could be doing with her; even banged up, even with concerns that maybe the live mic isn't her greatest forte (no slight on her, regularly cutting promos in your second, albeit fluent, language in front of a live audience is always going to be tougher), they could still be doing some more pretaped promos, or showing her training in recovery, or otherwise just making sure she doesn't slide to the back burner in people's minds.

She very much delivered in her match this past Sunday with Deeb, and her charisma most effectively comes across when she's in the ring so I understand why her being injured would hurt that, but I do think that Khan's main issue as a booker is that he does a great job getting a babyface hot heading into a title win, but doesn't always have the follow up ready to roll. Like, I thought Hangman had a good reign, but it was still hard to deny that at times as world champ he didn't feel like the "main character" anymore, not the way he did when his pursuit of Kenny was in full swing. Rosa's injuries obviously have played a key role in making her feel less centered, but there's still the vibe of not being quite sure what's next now that she's champ.

But yeah, good to hear it's not like she's angry or anything, but I totally get the frustration when someone works like hell to get to the top and then forces beyond their control halt their momentum.

Rosa is over partly because she just has a natural charm independent of her mic skills (which are hit or miss) but also for her excellent wrestling skills. She got over when she came to AEW because she immediately helped raise the standard for the division. So it's been hard for her when her reign began injured and having an inoffensive match with Nyla. I do think this Deeb match helped course correct and I imagine they have a plan for her but the illness got in the way. I also don't think Jade being there should be an insult to her reign. She's killing it and is a star. Ideally, you want those Turner titles to mean as much as the world titles. For the TNT Title, it felt that way when Cody and Darby held it. So I'm fine with that.

Even injured they could still do more for her. Pretaped promos, training, etc…. She’s got the same problem Shida had

Exactly but just besides that, TK track record of booking his foreign babyface women champions is fully dependent on them being good in the ring

Like for as much as he talks about WWE, look at how NXT booked Asuka and Io and steal that. Their charisma shined big and they did pretape and cool backstage segments to showcase them

I’ve been saying this since Shida but TK has to get away from the world revolving around Britt to think outside the box

[champchumpchange]

Jade & Britt are Tony's two stars.

She has every right to feel frustrated in the sense that she WON the A-belt, but it's been treated very much like the B-belt since then, with Jade's TBS title (and program) being placed at the forefront.

[chrom]

Since being signed by them, she's basically been background fodder and even after becoming champ it's gotten worse.

When she came out at Full Gear she had a severe case of F this company on her face.

[Harry The Arrow was Wrong!]

I know she was sick but the fact she wasn't even mentioned on Dynamite was ridiculous. Like you couldn't do a recap of her win or even talk about her match for a couple of seconds? Maybe have someone state they are coming for the belt? Do something, anything.

I can’t think of a more damning indictment of the booking of the women’s division than ‘creative has nothing for’ their champion.

How can you not have built a next challenger? Or how can you not have a plan to immediately build one? Did it not occur to Tony (or Kenny or whoever) that after DON she was going to, you know, make a defense at some point? And that she needs an opponent for that?

Especially considering they just had a women’s tournament that was a ready-made vehicle to build someone into an uppercard spot. (Which of course guess who won.)

SMFH.

Guess who the no.1 ranked is.

None other than Nyla Rose again.
