Didn't watch last night but I was reading along with the live thread a little bit. Saw people complaining that Jamie came out and did the same thing she did last time where she hit Toni with the chair and kind of threatened Britt, I guess. But I just watched it on youtube and... she attacked Toni, again, but she's still aligned with Brit? Wtf? Why? What are they thinking?!?!

My guess? Plans were put in hold once Saraya was signed

If they don’t have any plans for turning Hayter babyface by breaking off the pairing with Dr. Baker, then they should stop stringing people along and teasing people like it’s about to happen imminently. It’s a classic “cry wolf” situation, eventually people will stop giving a f*** about it and nobody will care when it actually finally happens.

I'm absolutely baffled by this, to be honest. I get that Saraya has changed plans but not all plans have to involve Britt Baker. They could have done the Britt/Jamie story AND the Saraya story. AND something for Toni as champion. Imagine that.

Why not just have Hayter come down to save Toni, Deeb hits her from behind before she gets her hands on Britt, and Saraya makes the save?
At this rate it will be the year 2030 and we'll still be waiting for Hayter to turn face on Britt.

I wonder if they will go for a classic “put the Brits together” trope and Saraya will tempt Jamie away from Britt?

I wonder if they will go for a classic “put the Brits together” This confused me so much at first. One Brit(t) Baker is enough for me, thanks!!

And with Britt being hurt again they will have to keep Jamie heel in the meanwhile to carry the in ring bulk...

This is how I wanted it to go tbh. It made sense she's angry at britt,but not enough to attack her.
But now the seeds of doubt are planted, she can slowly see over time she's being used, sees britts selfishness for what it is, she's not a friend she's a pawn etc then eventually snap for a more legit reason
I hope lol

Gotta wait for that iron to cool down before you can strike it! I'm sure if we repeat the exact same drawn out booking of Wardlow it'll work this time without the crux of the whole angle getting ruined because real life happens in the background of multi-year wrestling angles!

This is one of the worst booking tropes in AEW. Just f***ing commit. Jamie looks like a dipshit now and when she FINALLY turns on Britt it'll be too late to fully care.

They’ve done this same fake out like 3 or 4 times with her already. It really feels like the moment has passed now.
And no, Saraya coming in does NOT make it ok imo.
This is one of AEW’s biggest booking problems imo. TK seems to reflexively want to stretch things out as long as possible. And often times he misses the moment to strike when the iron is hot, or by the time he’s ready to finally pull the trigger, something has happened anc he cannot (Kris Statlander is another example of this).
There’s a difference between “long term storytelling” and “a story that is just taking a long time to tell” and AEW seems to not understand the difference a lot of the time.

I feel like it's a weird decision, considering Jamie is well over and I think they actually need more babyfaces.
Idk how much Saraya changed, but yeah, this is why people said Khan needs help with this divisions structure. Hayter and Britt don't NEED each other, if Britt needs a sidekick, give her someone else at this point
People are ready and willing to cheer Hayter, you gotta recognize that the same way you do with other talent like Acclaimed and do it
Then again, if Britt's now seriously hurt, Hayter's gonna have to slide in as the main threat to people, so depending on that it might've been the right move for now, even if it wasn't the best one.

I feel like if they needed another heel to join with Britt and Serena, they have other options.
It feels like Jamie is once again being held down, because Tony has a shiny new toy to play with (thus has been a recurring issue in AEW for both men and women).
Also unless he’s FINALLY gonna give the women more time, I worry that someone else is gonna be sidelined to do this angle now. Toni already feels like a supporting character even as champion, which is not encouraging.
