I never said it was bad faith, I said there are likely other reasons in play Shida being booked in another promotion and Britt taking care of her injured husband are a pretty legitimate reason two possible matches for WrestleDream didn't happen. No you didn't say it, you implied it. Yes, there's a reason one match didn't happen. What's the reason there have been three women's matches in as many PPVs? What's the reason the world champion has missed two consecutive PPVs? What's What's reason few of the title matches have any story buildup? What's the reason they're still being booked in the pre-main event cool-down spot? People think it's because of Tony's bad booking. You can't just dismiss that opinion when there's plenty of evidence for it. They are very barely being booked in the "Main event cool down spot" anymore, we really need to put this one to bed, because they are all over the card anymore. The main issue we're still on is they need more matches or more quantity throughout the five hours of TV I dismissed the outstanding opinion that AEW or Tony either hates women or hates women's wrestling, I wasn't trying to single anyone out here or imply that there wasn't legitimate criticisms. But when things come out like this, it does bring more logic to what's happening than "They just don't care" or "Bad booking". Including why Saraya wasn't on the PPV having a title match, because Shida wasn't available, which hey, shit happens. Kris/Julia did have a storyline, Toni Storm's storyline is one of the most compelling things about the show right now. The booking needs work on the women, in the end we'll see if they eventually start adding more matches for the girls, which I want, I'm not even disagreeing with that. I hope we continue to get that, especially if Bryan's helping out.

I don't know who has been saying Tony hates women's wrestling, because it sure wasn't me or any of the people who tend to agree with me
What I have definitely said and stand by is that Tony values women's wrestling less, and trying to argue that point given the proportion of men's wrestling to women's wrestling on the cards has actually declined in the past year, is pretty pointless
I don't think Tony hates women, or women's wrestling, and I bet he thinks he is doing everything he can for them. But he isn't.

TK is a fanboy at heart. And when you hear him talk about the kind of wrestling he grew up loving.
It’s not that he actively Hates women’s wrestling. But it is also not the type of wrestling he grew up idolizing so it’s I just not a priority for him.

Tony Khan hates women’s wrestling and only has it on his shows because he has to. Disagree if you want, I don’t care.

Just following up from what boss man said with my input;
I'm not even saying this shouldn't be discussed, I personally think there's no reason to not have at least two matches a show and more promotion on various feuds especially with the amount of hours they have, but the fact it always gets put to one thread just doesn't really help the issue. Especially when it feels like the only place to talk about people like Willow or Julia and such.
There's zero issue with talking about the ongoing issue, just try to not make it the only place women's wrestling can be discussed on this particular forum.
EDIT: Also, like, The Outcasts are all but done at this point so the main discussion of this thread is moot.
