    At this point, we're past the point of the whole "just looking good when losing to Shayna is enough" stage. We've gotten two years of that already. She should be putting some people over, by putting them over. Also you want to make a new star, let them WIN a match against a big opponent.

    Also I'm not fond of the idea of sacrificing the division for the sake of a story that otherwise has nothing to do with them. They did it last year with the SD division, and it was crap there as well.

    She put over Rhea pretty imprrssivrly.

    But if you want her to possibly face the biggest female in the industry on the biggest show of the year, you don't hob her out to someone who just wslked through the door. I lime Blackhart as much as the next guy, but pushing her isn't and shouldn't be the priority. If you book Bayzler weak, having Becky lose to her makes Becky look bad.

    Lee vs. Dijakovic sounds cool.

    Ciampa looked like a total badass here.

    Dakota losing to Tegan already was the wrong move imo. It'd have made more sense to save that for a later match.

    Pete Dunne is awesome.

    AEW:

    Pac is awesome. Moxley should bear Jericho for the belt, and then Pac beats him for it later on. He's too great not to be AEW Champion.

    Still waiting to be impressed with Nyla.

    Darby is so fun to watch. Between him, Sammy, MJF, Cody, Jungle Boy, etch, AEW should have some kind of midcard title for these guys to tear it up over.
    I think Mox beats Jericho, then drops the belt to PAC at the July PPV, setting up Omega to be the one to take the belt from PAC as a natural escalation of their rivalry.

    I am more interested in Thunder Rosa and Camille from NWA than I am in any woman in AEW.

    Shotzi has had moments and good showings. There is a long line of women, so she doesn't need to come in as this unstoppable Force.Quitw frankly , I wouldnt have had Bazzler show up until the Royal Rumble. Bazzler doesn't need to be jobbing when she has a big mania match coming up.

    NWA is in the star making business not in the content business.They are trying to push stars and not matches. Most of the matches on Powerrr are forgettable. The perfect world would be NWA storytelling/promos with AEW in ring performances.

    Shayna gonna get moved up the best thing they can do for her is put another girl over on the way out. That's the tradition and overall best course of action for the long run. Once she goes to Raw her NXT run won't matter anymore

    She said out over someone else on her way up ... Rhea. Lost to her at War Games and dropped the title. Most nxt chanps prior to going up drop the belt to someone on their way up ... though there are a few exceptions like the War Raiders and Asuka.

    That would have been fine if she went up after losing the belt but she didn't. She's stuck around and started a feud a Blackheart.

    And that seemed to work in Blackharts favor despite the loss. It put immediate spotlight on her. It also got her in the Rumble.
