This is kind of thing I’m talking about. It’s just a backhanded way of saying they want AEW to be more like WWE. When in reality, the AEW fanbase doesn’t want that. There’s plenty of stuff to criticize AEW for, lots of stuff that can be done better. But none of want it to be WWE Lite. #AEW

Teph Johnson @tephjohnson.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

I get so tired of the IWC fans who just say “I want AEW to succeed” but don’t watch the show. AEW is doing what it’s supposed to, which is be an alternative. I don’t need or want AEW to do what WWE does, that stuff isn’t fun to watch in my opinion, hence why I stopped watching it 7 years ago.🤼‍♂️

The last time I watched these two wrestle each other was in 2019 (I think) & its was for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship. The match was fantastic and the in-ring storytelling was too notch, definitely one of my favorites that year even being I was still new to NJPW at the time. #AEWDynamite

I also want to say that Maya World has been absolutely killing it lately, and I love her work. I will NEVER be disappointed to see her wrestle. I was just really looking forward to Sareee in AEW and seeing new people get introduced to her beyond whatever that run in WWE was. #AEW #AEWDynamite

Teph Johnson @tephjohnson.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Don’t get me wrong, Maya World is absolutely fantastic, but this is really disappointing, especially since it seemed like Takumi Iroha would replace Sareee if she wasn’t cleared. #AEWDynamite

Okay, in my opinion, Billie is still the only one that makes sense to beat Athena. It’s gotta be this year, it’s been building for over 3 years now. It’s time. But I understand Billie proves needs to turn babyface first. If it doesn’t happen this year then I don’t know what we’re doing here. #ROH

Teph Johnson @tephjohnson.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

I would happy with any of these 5 women being the champ, especially Yuka Sakazaki, but the only one they’ve really built up for Athena to drop it to is Billie. All of them are great though and deserving of the title. #ROHSupercard

AEW does NOT need a ppv like the Royal Rumble. AEW is a promotion where the wrestling is the focus, not the spectacle. I think the Casino Gauntlet matches are very much still the right move. 🤼
