I don’t blame her

What was she supposed to talk about? They took away her only talking point which was the tag titles. So basically, she was supposed to go on there and put over the main event that she wasn’t involved in and the tag title match she lost. That entire set up would have been to promote a bunch of people whom that particular audience is not interested in hearing about, nor would any of those stars come on that show. That was a soft move on WWEs part to even expect her to go through with that

A lot of these guys, her, Nakamura, Asuka, the Revival, need to go and make their money somewhere else. AJ been there for 2 years and he’s being called an all time great by commentary. They know who they want and who they don’t want.

She needs to stop complaining and just stick around. The women are always getting random ass pushes. Bliss was an afterthought for months and now she's back to dominating Bayley. How many random pushes has Alicia Fox gotten?

She seems to air out her feelings on social media which is her prerogative but with the E being as petty as it is it's not going to take that passive aggressiveness lightly. She has to understand that Charlotte Flair is pretty much the only woman getting a consistent push and the other women are going to be rotated in and out. If she feels that AEW will be able to push more than one woman at the top of the card long term then she needs to make that move. If not she needs to suck it up and wait for her random push.

Doing stuff like this because you lose matches or lose titles is emotional and nonsensical, honestly. Everybody loses matches, everybody loses belts... wrestling is and has always been fictional. Thinking that someone should quit their job over a fictitious win-loss record is the definition of working yourself into a shoot.

HOWEVER, I will say that if it goes beyond losing matches or titles, and there's other ongoing poor treatment going on, that would be a reason to leave. She's not really clear on what her issue is (not that she even should be- this social media shyt doesn't ever help anyone who does this), so we don't really know what she's talkin' about. It could be something that doesn't have shyt to do with a belt.

Either way, I don't expect that doing stuff like this is helping her at all. If I was running a company, and an employee decides they're gonna duck out on a scheduled TV appearance because they're upset, it would only make me decide against pushing/promoting them because this is how they act when shyt doesn't go their way.

Idk about afterthought. If any other girl was out with concussion-related injuries they'd have been MIA for the last six months. Instead with Alexa they still gave her TV time every week she was out.

Are you serious? They found every reason to keep her around and when they were confident that she was healthy she beat Bayley clean. The fact is that if you're non white you'll get treated like a jobber in favor of the other white women. Her random push was the tag titles and look at how short that was, you really missed the whole point of this thread.
Did we forget that she botches a shyt load too:hhh:
Did you not see the main event this past Sunday, there were more botches there than Sasha's entire career so far.

If it's all about being put on TV what is Sasha complaining about then? Sasha was a women's tag champ and Bliss was hosting a stupid talk segment.

And how many of those women were as popular as her? Popularity and skill is why she should've won at WM 32, but it was more important to keep building Charlotte. The funny thing is that the one woman they keep burying is probably the one woman who could help their ratings. They've put all this effort and time into Charlotte and Becky and neither are moving the needle when it comes to ratings or attendance.
No one person moves the needle anymore, and that's by WWE's design.

To keep it extra 100, there isnt even a "needle" to move anymore.

She weighs like 80 pounds

Becky, Charlotte and Ronda are way more physically imposing than her..

+ she botches so much her name should be botcha banks.

Not that Sasha doesn't have her flaws , but Sasha is more imposing than Alexa Bliss, a chick whose sole appeal is being cute and talking. She's basically the female Ryback, where she gets good reactions until the bell rings and she actually has to wrestle.

People make jokes about titles and fake fights. The point is she deserves to be in that upper tier and she is marketable, she should be up there. It always comes back to money though. They are fukkin up her money I'd be unhappy too, anyone would.
