3. Speaking of said live audience, not long after the announcement, Britt comes out to the crowd and buries your Champion, again.
4. Also, if there is any veracity to the heat between Rosa and Baker (which I am sure there is, given the parties involved), it looks as though Khan is taking sides. And it is with the party he is seen with in public at various sporting events. The same party who gets more screen time than both women's champions. As much as Vince was derided for having a "type" let's say. He wasn't having his picture taken standing next to Sable and taking her to big events with him.
5. The AEW Women's Division is not a draw. No lie there. That is because in no small part because it isn't treated as a priority. WWE had the same problem until Triple H noticed that four of the girls in developmental were bigger stars than most of the guys, and not just with horny dudes.
Bingo. There are ways to treat talent *you* put into position with dignity that isn’t 1:1 exactly the same thing. Her not being the promo Punk is isn’t the point in the slightest.

Well, it is the way you read it, sunshine. I am telling you, right now, I did not mean to state it is a fact. You can either be a #1-mark about it, or you can listen to what I’m saying.

I think you’re joking about the potential innocuousness of the tweet, but maybe talent should be more careful about what they post on social media.

AEW fans are already running with this and turning on Andrade something fierce. Just the usual tho.
