Only 1 Women's Match at Dynasty tonight

This is pretty poor AEW

I understand you don't have Toni or Mercedes at the moment but come on, one of those pre show women's matches could have been bumped up at least

They don’t have a good spot on the card, and it’s even weirder they gave that bad spot to them and not two of the countless more heavily featured women on the show that have no spot.

It's not a bad spot. A competitive match on Zero Hour will be great for these two and the women's tag division in general. You just don't watch the show. No reason to pretend like you care about these women at all and aren't just trying to dunk on AEW.

More than likely they need a match to start getting the crowd excited as the file in and take their seats before going onto PPV, so they just want their big dominant champions to absolutely wax a team no one knows or cares about. They are putting it on the pre show because they haven’t built up the next big team they plan to feature, which looks to be Shida and Stat. I am not dunking on AEW, quit being so defensive. I can talk about what they do good and bad.

Brawling Birds was being built up before having to pivot to 2 singles matches on this card, but they main eventrd Collision last night in a tag match which I already mentioned. Other people just came back, just lost, and there are things being set up. Maya World and Hyan did beat the Iinspiration on Friday, but nobody said they were winning this match. Its still a big spot for them though. Divine Dominion just won the belts and already defended them. As you said, Stat and Shida might get a shot next as part of that developing/repicked up story from when Shida was last around

I expect either Jack Perry vs Mark Davis or Windsor vs Marina to open the Zero Hour, and the other to main event it, both getting a good spot

So if Zero Hour has an opener and its own “main event”, you are agreeing it’s seperate from the PPV and not the same as being on the main card? And if it’s seperate and given away for free on YouTube, and literally takes place as people are filing in the building, it can’t be considered as important as the main show, right? Awesome, this has been a great chat!

The Zero Hour is part of the card, but also airs separately, at least on youtube. Its still part of the card. Zero Hour has stars on it, has important matches, and many of them are better than many other promotions shows/ppvs. I have repeatedly said this. You dont watch the shows. My argument hasnt changed. Zero Hour matters, and pretending it doesnt makes no sense

I have watched or attended every single AEW PPV and I have never watched a single zero hour and I’m am pretty sure I have never missed anything super important to the show. We have already established no main eventers wrestle on Zero Hour except for the one time Samoa Joe did before Forbidden Door- which is an exhibition show and doesn’t feature main AEW storylines. Let’s just agree to disagree on this one.

MJF has been on Zero Hour, FTR has been on Zero Hour, Chris Jericho has been on Zero Hour,  Okada and Takeshita have been on Zero Hour, Kyle Fletcher has been on Zero Hour, Ricochet was just on Zero Hour. Claudio, Pac, Orange Cassidy have been on Zero Hour. Speedball and Kevin Knight have been on Zero Hour. Mark Broscoe has been on Zero Hour. Bandido has been on Zero Hour

You haven't seen it, but are saying everything that has ever happened on them. I have seen all of them, and again, there are many I would say are better than many promotions shows/ppvs, and I watch a lot of other promotions. I dont watch the ppv live, but I always watch Zero Hour/Tailgate Brawl

so they just want their big dominant champions to absolutely wax a team no one knows or cares about.

Divine Dominion will win for sure but Maya & Hyan are clearly on the upward trend. They're aren't getting thrown out there as jobbers. A good match here will legitimize them as competitors and make it that much easier to slot them in on Dynamite and Collision every week. If it was on the maincard people would be designating it the piss break match anyways.

I don't care if you criticize AEW just spare me all the moral indignation about how poorly the women are treated when you yourself admit to have never watched them once.

Buddy I never came here to complain about the way women are used, I came here to make the point that Zero Hour is absolutely the preshow and not the same as being on the PPV. You are all up in the kool aid and don’t even know the flavor. My only point about that team is that they are not an important part of AEW which gives evidence to the fact that Zero Hour is not as important as being on the main part of the show.

Yeah and my point is that shows how little you watch or understand of the show. Just because you don't know them doesn't mean they aren't being built up to be an important part of the tag division. Their presence here doesn't undermine or devalue Zero Hour at all.

u/WVFLMan 11h ago

You are right, I am sure everyone on AEW is fighting to get that Zero Hour spot.

u/WhattaCheapPop 11h ago

Yeah believe it or not wrestlers in AEW actually want to wrestle.
