He chose Britt fukkin Baker over Jade
It’s definitely a loss, not a loss that’s gonna kill AEW but a loss that could’ve gotten them more mainstream eyes.
Britt Baker over Jade
Kris Statlander over Jade
He has the belt on Saraya’s unwashed ass
You book Jade to go undefeated forever then don’t even book a real story around her losing/trying to regain her title/anything.
We never got Jade vs. Shida, Hayter, Riho or even Storm. What’s even the biggest match she had? Thunder Rosa? Ruby?
Tony has had PLENTY of talented women wrestlers, PLENTY of time to build them up, PLENTLY of time to work Jade in a really good worker, PLENTY of time to have great matches…… But he would rather have the girls’ club of friends trade the belts around. Then has the nerve to air a backstage show where you see the “top women” in a storyline against each other hanging out like the Kliq and shytting on your other top stats?
And overall, he lost the one with the biggest potential to be a crossover star and bring viewers from all walks of life to raise your ratings…. For Storm vs Saraya again?
AEW will always be an alternative rather than a competitor of WWE until Tony Khan stops cosplaying Jerry Jones with the product. And I say that as someone who tries to watch every week.
