I shyt on random matches as much as anyone but midcarders receiving title shots has always been a thing in wrestling dating back to Bruno :pachaha:

I know people bringing it up because it's Tony Khan and he does it a lot but still, let's be serious here. That's a nitpick compared to a lot of shyt that happens in wrestling.

The thing I don't understand is whether or not Mercedes is facing Statlander at the PPV? They just started this up this week.. that would be a very rushed build :jbhmm:

Also, Action movie stars did use a lot of steroids in the 80s but then Bruce Willis came along with 'Die Hard' and changed the game. He made it so people WANTED to see a regular guy running around shooting people and escaping near death.

Wrestling is no different. People want to see different styles and different variations of characters etc

I doubt it. Let it build up. Stat vs Kamille at FG then Stat vs Mercedes at WE sounds like the best way to go. Let them slowly build it up and focus on those two ppv matches but help build up other women as well in the meantime.

No reason to have TK randomly tweeting middle of the week that the match is happening at the ppv. That's the last thing we need.

I agree with you but the whole build to 'WrestleDream' aside from the main event has been pretty rushed/lackluster so far. They shouldn't have had so many major events this close together tbh lol

That could work in Darby's favor every once in a while, but he shouldn't be dogwalking guys like Archer, Wardlow, & Shane Taylor on a regular basis.
Guys like Rey MisteriGOAT would outpace & outquick big guys until he wore them down or surprised them, but Darby, Cole, & them go toe to toe with hosses & it looks weird sometimes.
Darby’s thing is that he’s always getting his ass beat left and right

Yuka Sakazaki just got one and she aint even on the roster. Much rather have a centralized womens division booked around:

Toni (who just disappeared to japan like a puss)
Willow
DMD
Anna Jay
Shida
Aminata
Hayter (Who’s been booked terribly since return)
Leila Grey :noah:
Saraya
Harley Cameron
Skye Blue
Etc.

As the ones challenging Mercedes and Ol girl for the top titles.
Yuka is on the roster. She’s been signed since like 2023.
