AEW During the Pandemic (3/11/20 till ?????)

[King Kamala]

Not sure what source of this is but interesting if true.

 

[Epic Springs]

Ivelisse officially signed a contract with AEW. She'll be out by Christmas.

What's interesting about it is that AEW really doesn't feature much women's wrestling at all. They usually average around 5-10 minutes a show. The thought process that featuring a bunch of women's wrestling would lead to more women viewers isn't really accurate. I know the above show's off the AEW women's roster, but they aren't really the ones responsible.

 

[Laz]

Gotta put the least valuable one of all front and center, too.

I think difference is, for most part with a few exceptions (Becky Lynch's initial face turn and feud with Ronda), is that WWE women's stuff seems obviously targeted towards adolescent and teen girls. Idk if WWE is trying to draw in 18-34 women but clearly, if they are they are confusing their taste with 12 to 15 year old girls.


AEW puts a lot of objectively attractive men front and center too (not to mention the fact that their storylines seem targeted towards young adults not kids). That's why the 18 to 34 year old females I know prefer AEW.

Sneaking Aubrey into that picture is my favorite part. I really like Aubrey but that's just kinda funny.

I gotta think the rise in female viewership would be even higher if Darby, Puf and Sammy were featured more.

AEW sign Monty Brown, you cowards!

 

[Valeyard]

Monty vs Miro is a match I would actually pay for.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

what video game would monty feud with miro over

 

[Valeyard]

Let's just say the Alpha Male might be an Alpha Imposter.

Bringing in Rusev for huge money. Making him a video gamer. Teaming him with a jobber that no one really likes. And then feuding him with Best Friends over a broken video game has to be among the worst booking decisions in wrestling history.

I'm a huge Best Friends fan, but this is the dumbest shit. The end of that tag match, what the fuck was Rick Knox ducking from? He wasn't in the way of anything. Then Miro attacks Best Friends because one of the FTR guys throws Trent into the video game? Why would Miro go after BF instead of FTR who caused the game to break? Fuck this is stupid as shit. It wasn't even needed. The match was going well enough without that outside shit.

 

[Valeyard]

He should be in matches where people have to suck dildos which is okay because they're 100% consenting adults.

KTB is another good young prospect for them to bring in for a shot on AEW Dark.
