I'm inclined to agree. I remember when Paige/Saraya was touted as being a draw. Unless the booking improves, Mone will be exactly where Saraya is in a month or less.

@ThatSportsChick I wouldn't trust Bischoff if he told me the sky is blue

@ThatSportsChick @wrestling and Edge. AEW is unfortunately good at making top stars feel like mid card people.

@ArnoldBooker @wrestling Indeed. They take stars that have been made into a big deal by their appearances in WWE/elsewhere, so there's a ton of hype when they come in, and due to a lack of decent storytelling and poor presentation it just takes away their aura and shine that they arrived with.

I used to love AEW at the beginning when it was a fledgling company, but I've been very frustrated with the product lately and its direction for sure.
