this we can all agree on

but AEW building an entire AEW show theme around her just shows how huge a star she is.

 

punk has half as many instagram followers as claudio castagnoli

 

i for one cannot wait to see mercedes come in and have some fucking NXT PPV level bangers with toni

 

I'm def excited to her get that hometown pop in Boston too. Kinda wanna go lol

 

well that's why I combined both social media platforms lol

it's inexact but she's absolutely more popular in 2024 than Sting, Adam Copeland, Chris Jericho, and Kenny Omega.

 

Will Tony use her right though?

 

you can absolutely tell the women's division is getting booked better than it was even a year ago

at the very worst she's wins the women's title at double or nothing

 

We talking the episode or something else here

 

Jade Cargill cameo. Very cool for her.

 

I mean given the fact he has completely changed the women’s division and made improvements for Mercedes, I’m guessing yes.

 

Definitely been better from the little bit I’ve seen. My biggest thing had been if it wasn’t involving the title he doesn’t really give them anything to do. Also kinda applied to the men too

 

she's main eventing WrestleMania next year

 

true but the Stat and Willow and Stoke story has been fun and that's without a title.

I know they have 100000 different belts but creating women tag titles would help a lot too.

 

i really think Mercedes w the TBS title is the right move, she and Toni should be kept away from each other and allowed to shine in separate divisions imo

 

they aren't signing Mercedes to a huge deal, giving her her own themed dynamite, to give her the secondary title

 

Glad to see nothing has changed around here.

 

But it's silly to rocket her to the top and have the main title right away, you want a build

 

March to late May is a build

 

if not DoN she will win the title at All Out

 

March to next March is a build with a lot better ratings probably

 

It's so easy to book too, she has to earn her keep. Simple.

 

fwiw rousey, who they had wrestling in roh, has 17 million instagram followers.

 

it's not gonna be an entire year - she won a title almost immediately in NJPW and Punk was only in AEW for like 5 months until he won the AEW title
