To be fair, having a babyface have a hot chase to the title and then a “Now what?” title reign has been a problem through pro wrestling history.

^You would think that, at this point, wrestling companies would have noticed that and planned better though.

Rosa vs Toni would be perfect for Forbidden Door imo but they should drag it until Fyter Fest 2022....

A feud with Toni would be a step up for Rosa's booking, for sure. This is a positive sign.

Not to mention that, wrestling fans are usually not fans of just one person, there is a tendency once someone has finished their chase and gotten their gold to shift their focus towards someone else’s chase.

Toni vs. Rosa does leave me on a dilemma however, as I don’t really want to see either of them lose right now.

Toni vs. Rosa does leave me on a dilemma however, as I don’t really want to see either of them lose right now. Thus proving my point. The dilemma of keeping Rosa’s run going with a quality defense over a strong opponent, or having that opponent (Storm) get her flowers after a rough WWE run.

If Toni had not lost in the Owen, this would be far less of an issue as well.

This part here kind of gets missed. You have to build up whoever is going to eventually take the belt to make it believable and for people to care. By the time you're the top champion we should already know who you are and what you're about. They need to actually give time and storylines to other people on the under card

If they book her as a fighting champion like Cena's US Title run I think that'll be cool because the crowd is still hot for her and that's to show her talent despite all the BS she was put into to.

Interesting. I hope Yamashita can get a good introduction to AEW fans who aren't familiar with her before the match happens.

Marina liked both of these tweets and I will say that its a bad look on Rosa if she really sandbagged Marina on purpose(that rough suplex you could tell something wrong was happening).

Not to mention that, wrestling fans are usually not fans of just one person, there is a tendency once someone has finished their chase and gotten their gold to shift their focus towards someone else’s chase. On top of bringing up new challengers, they can still build Rosa's reign with hype packages. Remember Bret Hart's "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" videos in early '93? Face champions aren't inherently chopped liver once they're done chasing. Do it like 85 Hogan- make some killer heels, throw them at Rosa and she beats them. Easy.

Not to mention Roddy is best friends with Eric so I think it's a bit more than him noticing lol

I have heard rumors of her having a bad rep on the indy scene prior to her NWA run. I dunno if anyone here knows anything
