I Agree With You Guys But She’s A BIG Chick With More Notoriety Than That Whole List

Does that matter? Nia Jax has no drawing power whatsoever. She's not good in the ring or on the microphone. So even though she's a name, she brings absolutely nothing to the table. AEW already has enough "big" women with Jade, Kris Statlander, Jamie Hayter and Nyla Rose. They need workers like Tegan and Ember.

Nobody is going to hire Nia Jax.

She injures talent, isn't liked backstage, and is an anti-vaxxer.

By all accounts, Renee Paquette threw her softballs for that recent podcast interview, and Nia kept swinging at the fukking umpire

I listened to the interview, and it was pretty bad. She talked about how she won't get vaccinated and how Cokeboy sat her down to tell her that she won't be able to meet her contractual obligations otherwise. She debunked the theory that she was only hired & kept around because of her family - she said that some of her family didn't have her back. I'm assuming she meant Roman and the Usos (and maybe Rock too), but she didn't say anyone specifically. Then she says she's not a reckless worker who injures people - she's only injured two people

That applies to a lot of the pro wrestling business though but a good number of them will swallow that anti-vaxx shyt if it comes down to getting vaxxed or losing their check.
If Nia Jax wasn't such a strident anti-vaxxer I could see TK bringing her into AEW just because she's a big broad who isn't completely awful in the ring. I bet the visions of a Nia vs Nyla match or Jade slamming Nia have been dancing around Tony's head ever since Nia got fired.
Also her injuring people is a bit overblown when you take into account that Chuck is just as reckless with other people as Nia yet no one ever includes "injures co-workers" in the de facto description of Chuck the way they do Nia.

Don’t want Keith Lee in AEW. Never liked his corny old ass

The only apprehension I would have about Tegan and Ember is how injury prone they have been but they would be no-brainer pickups for the AEW women's division or any women's division to keep it real.

I'm sure you are on point about more folks than just Nia sticking their feet in the mud on this (Sarah Logan was at the Royal Rumble and genuinely has even shyttier views), but her injury rep is well deserved.

Her and Charlotte are both known as unsafe, that's why them hurting each other and throwing hands last year was pure comedy.

::cody rhodes rambles in the ring incoherently, then some weird generic music starts playing::

Excalibur: wait a minute tony, i know that man...that that..thats "the philosopher".....


Keith lee: mr cody rhodes.....i challenge you to a duel ...

I can gather from your defensive position, and bewildered grimace that you are quite certain I am here to impose my rather sizable will upon you in a physical manners to the cause of bringing your evening to the harshest of ends.

But fear not, I stand before you bringing GLAD tidings! I am not hear to provide the public with a preview of my prodigious purview of pugilism. Nay! I am here to offer your splendiferous spouse a critical role amongst a fellowship of like minded minds. Brandi join us in the Congregation of Outstanding Outspoken Nubians!

[Reality Check]

Not sure what becomes of Kross/Scarlett, I could see Tony signing him but I could see him passing up on him too because the reality is he's not that guy and he was overpushed by Triple H for no reason and his run at the top ran black and gold NXT to the ground. He doesn't work if he's not being booked like he was in NXT and he damn sure won't get that treatment in AEW. I know they left on a horrible note but Impact might be his best option.

They've already said they aren't going back to Impact. I know while they were with Impact they were angling to join AEW to the point they bought tickets to be in the crowd at the first Double or Nothing. I think Kross is still filming a movie and my best guess is he tries his hand at acting for a little bit.

I'm curious to see what happens with Harry Smith. With Lance Archer in a world title feud and him being directionless before and after it, a KES reunion could be in the cards.

A KES reunion could be cool just because the AEW tag scene has gotten a bit stale despite having some good tag teams in it.

Plus having a member of the Hart family on their roster once The Owen Cup gets going would be a plus.

I think both of em plus Mia would all be dope addictions to their woman’s division

I know Nia Jax is a hard pass for the majority of fans BUT…if there’s any money for her in AEW, it’s in her and Nyla Rose not even as opponents, but as a monster team going around bullying some of the girls.

 

[avon barksdale]

So is she saying they are free from the slave master

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Didn’t Mia just get into it with a fan recently over people using free/slavery metaphors when being released??

Another two weeks and they can sign Swerve
