I dunno but her title run had absolutely zero juice from start to finish. She's basically Lacy Evans tier

You know Dave is down bad when he's referencing wrestlers from past generations "rolling their eyes" at not taking the most money available to kind of act like Mariah May wanting to be in WWE stage as silly.

I'm predicting Mariah steals Dom from Liv.

How much more well known is the average WWE wrestler than AEW wrestler? Curious what the difference in money that's being discussed is 1.5 million a year vs 10 million a year? Or is it 1.2 vs 3.

Tony ain’t have shyt planned for her for this reign outside of the stuff with Toni Storm. He even somehow managed to take her turn on Mina-Chwaaaaan’s fine ass and made it feel like filler. :mindblown:

Some of it is on Mariah. I won’t pretend she doesn’t have some kinks that need to be worked out as a character/promo. But Tony legit gave her nothing as champion to work with

The fact that Toni pivoted to plucky upstart on her way back to winning the belt while May just seemed to be place holding felt super obvious

They fumbled this angle imo. It's a classic angle that gets done all the time because it works; balanced/updated version of the Dibiase/Virgil angle where fans end up seeing Mina get over on her in the end after Mariah's a bytch and mistreats her. Then you have an angle down the line where Mariah is getting fukked up and you can hype up them reuniting too.

I normally don't post here but this could be misinformation and it looks like Wrestle Ops took it out of context.




Haven't listened to any of this yet tho because I don't have access to the podcast.

Edit: After listening to it, Wrestle Ops could have worded this better, provided a link to the video or transcript or least posted the question. All that would have given more context.

I'm not gonna pretend to care about Mariah May like these other folks tbh. There is an entire locker room of girls like her, main roster and NXT. Unless toni storm comes back and can somehow do timeless, or Sasha returns, no woman in aew piques my interest whatsoever. And Sasha is pretty done now tbh.

The only one who should care is Alexa Bliss, Charlotte flair, tiff, and liv Morgan and the other blondes.

WWE also isn't the underdog compared to real sports. WWE consistently beats all sports besides NFL on cable and has for years. TKO bought WWE for more than the average NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL team is worth. The NBA came to terms for a $76b rights deal over 11 years. The NBA has a minimum of 1230 events a year.

WWE has signed 4 different $5b+ rights deals in the past 5 years while doing an average of about 450 events per year including Raw/SD/NXT/Main Event/Speed/Level Up/Evolve and house shows, and the tertiary shows are recorded on the same nights as other shows that inflates the number. WM is the biggest sports related money event of the year in the US outside of the Super Bowl and has been for about 15 years straight. They aren't the underdogs. They're invited to NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL and do branded marketing WITH them.

There is not a single fukking thing those billionaire fukkheads can claim to be an underdog at without the exact same delusion the GOP acts like despite having full control of every branch of government and Fox News being the dominant new network in the US for 30 fukking years. Khan saying they're the underdog when it would be like a single NBA team having the biggest event of the year every year that isn't the Super Bowl.
