Drop the "CEO" shtick

Other than that, stick her with a manager that helps lead into her promos the way Heyman did for Roman, who also sucked at promos for a hot minute before he became the Tribal Chief.
Getting her paired with Stokely seems like the move. Also, she should be a heel and see if she can drag a face Britt to a good match.
Also says he wishes he got to work with a guy like Swerve.
He had Booker on the roster for how long and it took a Mr. Fuji lawsuit to actually get him a push.

AEW didn’t even upload Sasha’s segment from Rampage on their YouTube channel :smh:

I wanted to check it out in case it came off better on tv than it did from the fan footage from post #202 but they didn’t even bother to put it up.

Here’s the recap from the observer:

Nightingale missed the cannonball in the corner, and Windsor caught her with a Shining Wizard for a near fall. Nightingale caught Windsor with a stiff clothesline, then finished her off with the gutwrench powerbomb for the pinfall.

Nightingale’s celebration was cut short by Mercedes Mone who kicked off her shoes and ran to the ring to brawl with Nightingale and Statlander. Mone tried to hit her new finisher (called the Mone Maker) which looked ridiculous for her to try on Statlander who was so much bigger than her. Eventually the gaggle of officials came out to break up the right. Mone celebrated in the ring with the TBS title.

Never thought I'd say this but this booking makes how Russo used Kurt Angle his first few weeks/months in TNA look genius. Came in hot and jumped straight into a feud with the hottest star in the company.


Sasha debuted over two months ago and ain't even had a match yet :francis:

I think initially she wanted to join, did the Japan stuff first as a bucket list move and thing to build her drawing power outside WWE but got injured and in the time AEW cooled off hence why she went back to WWE to negotiate and only returned to AEW when demands weren’t met

I think in the back of her mind she wanted or wants to build her name outside of WWE so they welcome back as a star like Cody or Punk but the dub is cold so she’s probably picking her spots in terms of matches and appearances while there

But I’m just guessing

The only female star AEW has at this point that could get some buzz vs Sasha is Britt Baker cutting harsh promos on her. That's it.

I get the feeling that Kris is going turn on Willow and join Mercedes. For what reason…..it’s AEW, things rarely made sense over the last year or so.

I could see them doing Shawn and Diesel thing with Mercedes and Stat or even Kamille since they have debut her yet
