    Huge lost for AEW.
    It's definitely a loss but it remains to be seen if it's a gain for wwe.

    WWE is doing the most with Jade. They are having her literally walk into the performance center

    https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1706738269575143628

    A couple of the wrestlers are hyping up her signing. Kenta was the last person they did this type of hype train for.

    I would have her go after the United States Championship!

    Well...

    Her work in the ring was where I felt that she was slightly lacking.

    Didn't end well for KENTA.

    Hopefully this goes much, much better!

    Her character work was perfect. She was spot on character wise. Buy as 30 pointed out (and I did a week earlier) she needs help ring work wise. I expect having Trish and others there will help her.

    A big factor on why Jade really never did improve ring wise in AEW was a point a veteran (maybe Billy Gunn) brought up a year or 2 ago. AEW doesn't have house shows so Jade and other young talents were learning onscreen as they went. Which you can only learn so much having 1 or 2 matches a week at times.

    I watched a what culture video the other day and it brought up the top 10 wrestlers who wrestled the most quantity of matches in 2022. Dante Martin was on top for AEW wrestling 64 matches while the Usos topped WWE with 140 matches. The Usos spend a little less of half a year working matches. The young blood in AEW needs something like that.

    I think they need house shows for sure. I wouldn't go full WWE house show schedule if I was AEW. I do think...they need to do a certain number of them and live shows they do each week. Back when TNA was doing well under Jarrett and Dixie...(2007-2009 they were in the black and doing ok) the idea was to do like 5-10 House Shows a month to go with their tapings. They would tape 2-3 weeks of TV at a time in Orlando.

    The next month would be less house shows to give guys a break and so forth.

    But while TNA did house shows (I attended 2 of them in 2014 or 2015) they never were able to do what they had planned due to money issues.

    The current WWE house show model isn't intensive. Since the lockdowns lifted they've only done house shows on weekends. On average a WWE wrestler is working 2-3 times a week.

    I'd do a week on like that and a week off if I was AEW. Like one week guys/girls could work 2-3 times. The next week 1 or 2 counting Collison or Dynamite . Then the next week on. This way you give your people a break to rest up and all. Plus it would appeal to some talents ..."Hey we can have 1 or 2 days of work every other week !"


    With the 100+ member roster (Khan claimed he has like 100 people signed from an interview) he can logically give his people breaks and not wear them down as much.

    I remember the old WWE schedule wore guys out completely. Rob Van Dam detailed how awful it was. He'd be working 3-4 days a week. Fly home , get a day of rest and and then have to fly right back out the next day. So he was only home a day or 2 max. (this is part of why he wouldn't work the Iraq/Afganistan shows and took heat for it lol)

    Speaking of house shows, how many of you ever attended a WWE house show or two?

    I been to a couple house shows. I been to a couple ECW shows back in the day and a WCW Nitro as well. The Nitro was my favorite one because we all were able to go down so many rows down once the show started and it was wild watching a fan jump the railing and sucker punch Randy Savage. (That fan was carried out by all 4's by police and security)

    I go to shows all the time (WrestleDream baby!!!) but WWE shows are a different beast.

    You tend to see segments they're trying out for up comimg PPVs (one cool one I remember was a double pin roll up RVD later did on Shelton & and Jericho).

    WCW was a good place to see banger matches with undercard guys. They usually ended with nWo beatdowns.

    Indy shows are different entirely.

    Taped and live non PPV shows are my least favorite because they do a lot of spots for the camera side and lot of "exposed" spots are shown.

    I think my 3 favorite shows of all time are a NOAH/K-1/p-W show, Spring Stampede, and WM XIX. All 4 NJOW shows I have seen are easily 3-4-5 all time. There was a crazy house show with Undertaker, Cena vs. Edge in a cage, and Rey Rey running the guardrail with Carlito that was killer.

    My first WM was XIV but I don't remember anything other than the Main Event which I've only seen one match better live (Jericho v. HBK WM XIX). Still have my WM XIV shirt.

    Story wise though it doesn't make sense.
